How to reheat rice?

I made a big batch of rice for "Red Beans and rice".

How do I reheat the rice?

Ususally rice is mixed with other ingredients so reheating is not a problem.

Seem like maybe I put the rice in a glass jar in a pan of boiling water?

I generally microwave it with a little water in a lightly sealed glass or clay vessel.

Sometimes I warm it in the Instant Pot if it's still in there from when I cooked it yesterday. I think you could do the same thing in a pan on the stove on the lowest heat you can manage. But it's not as good as microwaving.

Or I fry it with eggs and veggies, but that's not really reheating.

We just reheat it slowly in an oiled iron skillet on the gas burner...long grain brown rice.
I don't know anything about white rice.

Reheated rice for me is usually disappointing. Turning it into a decent fried rice is a feast.

Hot pan, day old rice (left uncovered in the fridge so it dries out a bit). Toasted sesame oil, soy sauce, some protein and veggies, chilli flakes, etc...
