But after one fateful dinner party at which one of his guests remarked that his chicken-rice was so good, it ought to be served to the public, Durrani, being the noble genius, planter, and bio-chemist that he was, set out to do just that.He started researching rice, which at the time was notoriously hard to store and prepare, thus scarce in the American market.. After a lot of trial and error—18 years worth to be exact—Durrani perfected a method of parboiling, then dehydrating long-grain white rice so that a little more than a minute and some boiling water was all you needed to bring it back to life.

In 1941, he brought his new rice product, a pot, and a portable stove to the General Foods Corporation in New York.After convincingly demonstrating his "minute rice," the rest is history.
