Brown rice pasta - the easiest way

- Pasta boiled for 2 minutes, then heat turned off and cooked in the pot for about 18 minutes. During that last 18 minutes, you can make the rest of the meal. Very convenient.
Uses a large pot for convenience. You can use a smaller pot, but you have to spend more time pushing the pasta down into the water as it softens - very annoying.
Yours came out wayyy better than mine did. I should've watched this earlier instead of watching it 1 minute after I "cooked" mine.
I found this video and followed your directions, Thank you! (2022)
Glad it helped!
Wow, I would not have expected to let it continue cooking with the heat turned off. Will try this. Thanks.
Yes, it interesting how much heat there is in the water. The same technique is used for poached chicken, where if you cover a chicken in a pot with chicken broth, bring it to the boil and let it sit just at the boil for 10 minutes with the cover on, and then turn the heat off, cover still on, 50 minutes later you'll have poached chicken, which has a more velvety texture than regular chicken, simmered with the heat on for the whole time. This uses much less fuel for cooking, and reflects the fact that water has a high heat capacity, which means that it takes a lot of heat to change a given amount of water by a degree, compared to other materials. It's why land cools off or heats up faster than the ocean.
Can i break pasta if does not fit in the vessel ?
You can, but if you don't break it, and lay it in as far as you can and wait a minute or two the part in the water will soften and you can generally then push the remainder into the water.
We tried this two nights ago and the noodles stuck together immediately. We kept trying to peel them apart through the entire boil and they kept sticking. How did you keep them separated??
That is puzzling. I don't know why they would stick. What brand of brown rice noodles did you use? You need plenty of water. I brought them to the boil, never touching them through the entire process. The idea is after the initial boil to turn off the heat and leave it alone, never touching anything.
@@cookaburra please tell me what does pasta taste like? I suppose they dont taste like wheat pasta (white flour).
If you add a tablespoon of olive oil to the water before you drop in the pasta, it will vastly help reduce the pasta sticking together.
That is fine, but for this pasta, there is no sticking.
@@cookaburra well, even better!
You have an unusual accent, it’s kind of Australian with a hint of American/Canadian.
Born in Australia. Now in US. It's a genuine Aussie/American mix!
My problem is that I hate the taste of it, is there gluten free pasta out there that tastes more like wheat pasta?
Hard to help with this one, sorry. But I often do a stir fry and then throw the cooked pasta in at the end and the natural sauce may help with your taste issue.
Camera flipped... slick... Stunt noodle replacements.... tsk tsk.
Not getting what you mean. Camera flipped? No. Just my Panansonic videocam on a tripod. What replacements? This was simply a straight forward video of the cooking process. The brand of brown rice noodles was Tinkyada. No stunts! ?????????
Hmm well I had expected a recipe for the brown rice pasta itself. I would be surprised if someone doesn’t know how to cook packet spaghetti.
Well brown rice pasta is tricky. It falls apart easily.
You can simply break the pasta in half before placing in boiling water. I'm surprised you didn't do that.
No need. It bends to fit in a few minutes,
@@cookaburra It only takes a second to break in half. Why would you have to spend more time pushing the pasta down into the water as it softens - if it's very annoying?!!
