Just a quick observation that I noticed yesterday... the woman at

the Chinese restaurant that I ordered take-out from last night went over the refrigerator and took out a cold container of opened fried rice and put it on the grill to cook. I never noticed that before - cold AND dried - just like you said!

Must be the dried rice takes on the flavors and fats once it's reheated and ingredients are added to it. Thanks again.
