How to prepare rice flakes? (+) and got the best answer

Answer from Dormidont[guru]
Instant cereal porridge Basic recipe Servings: 1 large serving (~ 220-250g) You will need: 30g cereal (millet/wheat/buckwheat / rice (40 g) - any, while the flakes can be mixed, thereby introducing additional variety into the diet of the baby) (~ 2 full tablespoons with a slide); 125 ml of water; 125 ml of milk; a pinch of salt (optional) butter or vegetable oil; sweetener: sugar, Jerusalem artichoke syrup, honey, maple syrup, jam, sweet fruits - as desired and according to the season. Preparation: Mix water and milk, put on the stove. While the mixture (half milk) boils, measure out the desired number of flakes. For a small child, or for children who like a smooth, uniform porridge texture, the cereal can be ground in a coffee grinder. Salt the boiled milk (if you use sugar, then add it, stir). We reduce the fire (if you have an electric stove, then turn down the heat to 2-3 units). With intensive stirring, pour the flakes in a thin stream. If you have crushed flakes, then in order to avoid lumps, stir the porridge in only one direction. Boil the porridge under the lid for 2-3 minutes Remove from heat and, if possible, let it brew under the lid for another 10 minutes. Add butter and sweetener. Mix well.

It must be remembered that cereals can cause allergies. Therefore, flakes are introduced into the diet gradually, in small portions. It is also not worth abusing the product, as this often leads to constipation.

Cooking uses of flakes

Rice flakes have been used in cooking for a long time. The recipes are very varied. The most common is porridge with milk. But nutritionists advise not to cook, but to steam the cereal in hot boiling water for ten minutes. From above the dish is covered with a lid. This method of preparation helps to preserve all the beneficial properties. Flakes can be seasoned with yogurt, butter or milk. For taste, favorite fruits, berries, nuts or condensed milk are added.

Rice flakes make a delicious and healthy dessert pudding. It turns out very soft and light. Rice flakes are great for baking (pies, muffins, etc.). Perfectly combined with chocolate in recipes for cakes and pastries. The rice pudding is very tasty. It is quite possible to replace flour in recipes with flakes or use it as a breading when frying meat and fish.

Description

As you know, historically, India, Thailand and Indochina are considered to be the birthplace of rice - countries where this cereal crop began to be cultivated more than seventy centuries ago. By the way, unlike Europe, where rice was brought only after the campaigns of Alexander the Great, in our country the first rice crops began to appear only in the seventeenth century on the orders of Peter I. The very word “rice” in Russia came into use at the end of the nineteenth century - until At that time it was called Saracen wheat or Saracen grain.

Today, the nutritional and beneficial properties of not only the grain itself are highly valued, but also its derivatives - rice flour, paper, noodles, vinegar and, of course, rice flakes. Healthy rice cereal porridge has long been a very important and healthy breakfast for many groups of people.

To cook rice flakes deliciously while retaining most of their valuable properties, you need to boil water or milk, and then pour the hot liquid over rice flakes. It is best to cover the steamed rice flakes with a lid, leaving them like that for ten minutes, so that the porridge has time to cook well.

Rice flakes, along with all other cereals, perfectly combine with berries, fruits, and various types of nuts. Instead of sugar, when preparing rice cereal porridge, you can add natural honey or homemade jam. The calorie content of rice flakes (usually fast food) averages about 360 kcal per hundred grams of this healthy product.

Composition of rice flakes

Rice flakes can become a source of vitamins and minerals, as they contain: all amino acids necessary for the human body, choline, vitamins B1, B2, B5, B6, A, E and PP, as well as useful minerals: potassium, calcium , magnesium, zinc, copper and manganese, iron, selenium, phosphorus and sodium.

Benefits of rice flakes

Undoubtedly, the nutritional value of rice flakes is not so small, but rice is recognized as a dietary product, as it contains easily digestible proteins. That is why, if you want to get a large part of the biologically active substances and vitamins necessary for the body, as well as a charge of vivacity and a surge of strength for the whole day, it is recommended to cook rice flakes in water. Thus, you can not add calories to the finished dish, have a great breakfast and get the full benefits of rice cereal.

This valuable product contains dietary fiber and saturated fatty acids, as well as a whole group of vitamins PP, B, E and choline important for human health. It is impossible to deny the benefits of rice flakes because they are rich in elements such as iron, calcium, zinc, potassium, manganese, copper, magnesium, phosphorus and selenium. All this makes rice flakes an important food item on the menu of many people.

Cooking rice flakes

Rice flakes can also be used to make the most ordinary milk porridge, it will cook very quickly and will have an excellent taste, but it is much more interesting to dream up (calorizer). By adding any, better than seasonal, berries and fruits, nuts and honey, we get a nutritious breakfast that is good on its own, but you can add milk or yogurt.

Rice flakes are great for making desserts and rich pastries, especially muffins with kefir and sour cream, cottage cheese casseroles and cheesecakes, in which rice flakes can be added instead of semolina or flour. They are often paired with chocolate in pastry and light cake recipes. Also, rice flakes will make an original breading for delicate fish.

Oatmeal + Rice flakes in cooking

To prepare porridge from a mixture of oatmeal and rice flakes for the whole family (for example, for 4 people), it is necessary to pour 2 cups of flakes into a boiling liquid (5 glasses of water, juice or milk). After three minutes of cooking, darken under the lid. Season with salt and sugar if desired.

With these flakes you can delight your family with curd and yoghurt mousse. To prepare it, you need:

  • Dissolve 4 sheets of gelatin in water according to the instructions, then add 100 grams of warm raspberry (strawberry) juice.
  • Mix 200 grams of cottage cheese, sugar and yogurt. Pour the gelatin mixture into them and stir.
  • Whip 200 grams of cream, 200 grams of cereal and 300 grams of raspberries.
  • Combine everything, put into molds and refrigerate for 2 hours. Decorate the finished dessert with fresh berries.

Many mothers wonder how to transfer a child who eats instant cereals to a common table?
Usually, after finely ground cereals, a child needs to be accustomed to large grains, but not all children willingly eat such cereals, especially rice and buckwheat. We, mothers, come to the aid of cereals, which can be purchased at any store. And today my recipe is how to cook rice cereal porridge.
I buy the following flakes:
Add three tablespoons of rice flakes to a boiling glass of milk.

I start stirring and wait until the porridge boils, add some salt and sugar. After boiling, the flakes must be cooked for three minutes, be sure to stir. Then turn off the heat, cover the dishes with a lid and wait another 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a plate, add oil and wait until it cools.

Our porridge is ready. Cooking takes about 10 minutes. Such porridge is no different from ordinary rice porridge, it is smaller and suitable for children who do not want to eat rice grains. I began to give such porridge to my child from about eight months old, they ate it with pleasure.

Bon appetit everyone!

The use of rice is widespread in modern kitchens. Groats are endowed with valuable nutritional and beneficial properties. Therefore, most housewives around the world choose this cereal and its derivatives: rice vinegar, flour, noodles, and, of course, rice flakes. A translucent and fragile product is successfully added to various dishes.

Features

Rice flakes are the result of modern methods of processing and flattening rice grains. With the help of innovative devices, the familiar taste and useful qualities of such a nutritious product are preserved.

Many people prefer to start their morning with a tasty and satisfying rice cereal porridge. In order not to lose valuable substances during the cooking process, it is recommended to add boiling water or hot milk to the flakes. At the end, the dish is covered with a lid for 10-15 minutes.

Grain can be used to cook not only hearty porridge, but also various desserts and puddings. The ingredient is ideal for breading when frying cutlets, chops and crispy fish. At home, you can even make a restaurant rice dessert in combination with a delicate marshmallow-butter cream. Butter pastries based on a rice product, instead of the usual flour, will turn out light and airy.

Guests will certainly be surprised by a light dessert - delicious rice cereal muffins on kefir. A simple recipe will allow you to prepare a delicacy for any hostess. It is only necessary to temporarily pour the flakes with kefir. Next, add the pre-prepared mixture of rice flour, sugar and butter. Bake muffins in the oven and serve with tea.

Composition, benefits and harms

In addition to the ease of cooking, the product contains a large number of substances beneficial to the body.

  • Rice flakes are quite satisfying and high in calories - 100 grams contains about 360 calories. In this regard, it is recommended to eat such food in small portions.
  • Significant calorie content does not prevent the product from being a complex carbohydrate containing easily digestible protein. That is why cereals are considered dietary, they are the best option for eating with restrictions.
  • Calcium and phosphorus, which are present in the composition, strengthen the skeletal system and teeth, while zinc improves the structure of the nail plates and hair.
  • Numerous minerals and vitamins contribute to the improvement of the body, energize for action.
  • Rice is an excellent antidepressant. Regular consumption of cereal normalizes nerves, improves general condition and mood.
  • Dietary fiber contained in cereal helps the proper functioning of the digestive system, helps to eliminate toxins from the body, and normalizes metabolism. Fiber helps maintain normal blood sugar levels, so it must be included in the diet of diabetic patients.

  • Flakes have a beneficial effect on the heart muscle, perfectly normalize blood pressure and cope with arrhythmia.
  • The product regulates the normal functioning of the kidneys and removes excess water from the body. And regular use warns against the appearance of edema in the future.
  • Cereal perfectly copes with foreign odor from the mouth, caused by many reasons.
  • This is the most valuable product for baby food. Rice flakes do not contain the allergen gluten. Infants in the form of the first complementary foods can be given the product, starting from six months.
  • Despite the fact that flakes are still a derivative product, all useful substances (vitamins, minerals, amino acids) are preserved.
  • Starch, naturally present in cereals, is highly degradable by processing. Therefore, rice cereal porridge is easily digestible even for a child's body.
  • Porridge actually turns out "with a boost of energy." From such food, the body gets the necessary energy and valuable substances, without wasting energy on its splitting.

It must be understood that the irrational use of such a useful product is fraught with constipation. In addition to the benefits, the rice product can be harmful to people with stomach ulcers and chronic colitis. Flakes are also excluded from the diet with individual intolerance to the product.

And do not forget that any product should be consumed in moderation. If there are flakes in large quantities, they can turn into centimeters at the waist.

Cooking for children

Considering that cereal porridges are very satisfying and dense, it is undesirable to completely fill a child's diet with them. But several times a week, pampering with a delicious casserole, a cupcake and a small portion of porridge is highly recommended.

Modern parents never have enough time to fully care for their children. There is no time to stand and cook healthy meals for hours, even my mother is on maternity leave. But it is still necessary to feed the child qualitatively. And if the baby's teeth have not yet erupted, and a variety in the diet is already required? Cereals will definitely come to the rescue. They are quite light, so it is enough to brew cereal in boiling water or hot milk, and excellent rice porridge is served at the table. In order for the baby to be full and satisfied with breakfast, porridge must be boiled only in milk.

Finnish supermarket - Part 3. Porridges and cereals.: tvoirovaniemi - LiveJournal

Our third article about the Finnish supermarket will tell you about the product with which we all start our day (or almost all) - this is porridge. If the packaging of cereals and muesli quite clearly depicts what is inside, then as a rule, it is quite difficult to determine the type and type of porridge on the packaging of porridge. Therefore, in this article you will find a translation of the names, as well as many photos with examples of cereals and cereals. The Tvoy Rovaniemi team hopes that this article will help you figure it out and find your favorite porridge.

01. Let's start with oat flakes - kaurahiutale , let's figure it out: kaura is oats, and hiutaleet is flakes.



02. If you want large oat flakes made from whole grains, then we recommend you large, whole grain oat flakes – iso täysjyvä kaurahiutale.

03. As you can see, whole grain cereals take longer to cook, so for a quick breakfast we recommend quick oatmeal - pikakaurahiutale. As a rule, flakes in such packages are chopped and very small.

04. By the way, various fruits or berries are often drawn on the packages with porridge, but this does not mean that something has really been added to the porridge. Most often, various fruit additives are found in instant cereals. For example annos pikapuuro - portioned , quick porridge with raisins and plums (rusina ja luumu), apples and cinnamon (omena ja kaneli) or porridge with flax, carrots and apricots (pellava, porkkana ja aprikoosi).

05. Another popular oatmeal with the addition of oat bran – kaurahiutaleita & kauraleseitä .

06. Very often breakfasts in hotels serve porridge made from rye flakes - ruishiutale .

07. If you like oatmeal and rye porridge then try kaura ja ruis hiutaleita or karu for short (do not confuse with the word kaura).

08. Another interesting variation of porridge is four-grain porridge , in Finnish neljän viljan hiutale . 4-grain porridge can also be instant, look for the word pika on the package.

09. Of course, in Finland there is semolina - mannasuurimo ‚ as a rule, you can choose ordinary semolina (yellow package in the photo), or dark semolina with added fiber - tummia, runsaskuituisia mannasuurimoita (orange package). Children especially love chocolate semolina - suklaanmakusia mannasuurimo.

10. Children also like rice flakes – riisihiutale . As a rule, in stores, even small ones, there is a fairly wide range of rice porridge. Sometimes there are various combinations of rice porridge with others, such as oatmeal.

11. Now let's move on to cereals. Let's start with our favorite buckwheat porridge, many do not know that buckwheat is sold in Finland, but like all Europeans, Finns do not like it as much as we Russians do. More often use buckwheat flour for baking, rather than buckwheat grains. Greek is tattari in Finnish. A Finnish supermarket sells buckwheat - tattarisuurimo (the grains are green because they are not fried), buckwheat crumbs - tattarirouhe and even buckwheat flakes - tattarihiutale.

12. In Finland, buckwheat is much more popular - pearl barley in Finnish ohrasuurimo . On the shelves, even in small shops, you will definitely find pearl barley or pearl barley flakes - ohrahiutale. In a large supermarket there will be approximately the same choice as in the photo. Groats in two similar packages in the photo on the left, differ in that in one package they contain chopped grain - rikottu, and in the other - from the whole - kokonainen. As we wrote earlier, täysjyvä means whole grain, that is, not refined.

13. Another favorite Russian porridge is millet , in Finnish hirssi , it can also be found in Finnish supermarkets. In general, GOgreen supplies many interesting products, we advise you to pay attention to this brand.

14. Now let's move on to rare and unusual products, in the Prisma supermarket we found spelled or spelt , in Finnish speltti . Spelled is a grain crop from the wheat genus. Find out more here.

15. But the most unusual product, according to the team of Your Rovaniemi magazine, is potato groats - perunasuurimot. According to the instructions, you can cook porridge, tortillas or casseroles from potato grits.

16. If you prefer natural products grown without the use of pesticides, synthetic mineral fertilizers, growth regulators and without genetically modified products, then look for the mark Luomu on the package. Bio is written on English-language products. As a rule, ecological products are more expensive than conventional ones, as they require more effort to produce them. But the advantage of such products is that you do not pollute your body, and the environment was not harmed during the cultivation and production of this product.

17. In Finland, food manufacturers try very hard to be tolerant to different categories of people, our magazine has already written about lactose-free products, now we will talk about gluten-free products, in Finnish gluteeniton. Gluten, or gluten, is found in most cereals, especially wheat, rye, oats, and barley. But in the Finnish supermarket you will find a large number of gluten-free products, such as bread, flour, biscuits and even cereals.


ecological - luomu
apple - omena

This concludes our third article on the Finnish supermarket, we hope that now you can easily choose porridge. Welcome to Finland shopping!
