prerinsed

Washed before use

Prerinsed describes something that has been rinsed before a main washing or further processing.

Dishes may be prerinsed before loading into a dishwasher; produce may come prerinsed and ready to eat.

The term appears on packaging to indicate a step has been done for you: prerinsed salad greens, prerinsed lentils.
