Since I was a kid and my mom fed me cream of rice I loved it. I now make it by grinding long grain rice in my coffee grinder and cooking it in my rice cooker. 3 to 1 ratio of water to rice. I top it with tbsp of maple syrup and almond milk. Cost effective too.
wow u r fabulously real about ur info videos. thanks so much. i am a senior citizen & have been learning how to cook one person meals (or two person meals when i want a meal leftovers.) Such fun ideas & ur vibe sharing the info is so free♡ I just need to clean up my kitchen area for cooking lol instead of going out for a bite to eat ☆
Grits are a type of porridge made from ground corn that is not commonly available in Australia, so polenta is often used as a substitute. Grits can be made from white or yellow corn and are often labeled accordingly. They can be served with a variety of flavorings and are often eaten for breakfast. Grits taste like corn, plus whatever you cook them with, which can make them sweet, salty, spicy, or bland.
Grits are simply cracked corn, polenta are just about the same coarseness so each can be used for the other Oats can be cracked also, then called steel cut/Scotch oats/Irish oats Buckwheat can be cracked also, often called “grits” too and when buckwheat is toasted it’s called kasha Ain’t grains fun?
Ya wanna know how it works, cause i just had to!!!😂 It's got a thermostat set at around 212f, the boiling point of water. When all the water has evaporated the thermostat kicks it down to keep warm. That's why the ratio of rice (or anything else) to water is so important. If you're making a cake or brownies, same thing..... The reason the toothpick comes out clean is cause all the water has evaporated. I haven't tried brownies tho cause it seems to me like they'd be on the dry side.😮 I guess you could try brownies, but id keep an eye on the time the first couple of tries. Thx for these videos, gonna binge my way through your channel.❤❤
GREAT RECIPES, THANK YOU! 😍😋 6:52 A tip for anyone making pancakes or scrambled eggs: for the best oancakes, put a few dollops of sour cream into your batter and don’t beat the batter. Mis the batter no more than about 15 strokes- just enough to not see powder. You *want* to see lumps! This makes a super fluffy, creamy pancake! I only use butter in my pan- never oil. Oil makes them crispy and I don’t like that. Also, put a few dollops of pancake batter in your scrambled egg mixture and they’ll be flyffy and a lot more filling! 😊❤
I love to make grits in my Dash rice cooker. I usually add chicken broth - or bouillon - and bacon bits, but I haven’t made it with an egg. I’m definitely going to try that next time. Thanks for sharing!
and to reheat things. i can use the well u cook in or i use the steMer thingy. i put foil in that. and then in the well i put wwter and heat everything up. easy peasy
If you cant find grits you can use corn meal. The texture will be much smoother but its the same thing. In the old days we called it corn meal mush. Grits are great with butter and brown sugar for breakfast or dinner. Or mix in some cheddar cheese for a great side dish.
love it! Have to try this omelette in the rice cooker. Again, I love how you sprinkle that spinach into everything to get more nutrients. so hearty and delicious.
@@ClaireRisper Would love if you did just recipes on how you incorporate or sneak spinach in your recipes. Just a spinach inspired video on any recipes not just rice cooker but anything could be stove top,, baked or slow cooker. Would love that!
I live in Australia and I don’t know what grits are, not even sure if I can buy them here, but I’m loving your videos and definitely going to add a rice cooker to my kitchen
Grits are ground up hominy. If you don't know what hominy is, it's exploded corn that been soaked and expanded. It has a wonderful, nutty flavor. I personally dislike grits because of the texture. And if you don't know what corn is then you don't live on planet earth. 😂
Hi Claire 👋 When i did youtube search for rice cooker recipes you were not the 1st to come up, but yours is the most interesting! Getting a rice cooker for bday, so excited. 😊 I saw your comment about weight loss, did you use the rice cooker as a tool fir weight loss? Any tips would be so appreciated! I am officially a big fan! 😅
I actually had bariatric surgery almost three years ago. I had a sleeve done and it has been amazing for me! Definitely not easy and not the right fit for everyone but I have really vibed with the lifestyle. The rice cooker has been great because I can make smaller portions easily which is great for weight loss even if you haven’t had surgery! I also think the low effort definitely makes me more likely to eat something less processed or grab fast food which is a helper too!
Your garden frittata was beautiful. I'm in the process of remodeling our townhome and the kitchen is demoed. Because I can't stop projects and go out for lunch every day, I'm using a 4-cup rice cooker for all my meals and for heating up leftovers that I bring. I love cooking like this so much, that I don't even care if the stove is the last thing installed. :)
inhaveba 3 cup rice cooker. and it has a steamer thingy with it. it makes the rice cooker more versatile. i got mine at amazon. and i picked a red one. i have made lots of dif things in my rice cooker and the steamer thingy id awesome too
I use my frother to make protein iced coffee. I add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to 1/2 skim mike and several pumps of Torani sugar free syrup (Chocolate Macadamia is my preference),and froth. Add ice and brewed coffee. Delicious.
I am loving your channel. I would like to try some of your recipes but my rice cooker doesn’t have cycles on it; rather it has listed white rice, brown rice, steam and keep warm. So please tell me how long a cycle is.
New subscriber. I found you from your other video of making recipes in the rice cooker. You sold me, so I ordered one from your link. I got it today! I can't wait to try some of these. Thank you!
If you want the flavor savor of cheese and are a vegan or don't have cheese, try a good sprinkle of high quality nutritional yeast. It's very good and packed with nutrition. Also can make pancakes or bready biscuity type things with flax meal, golden or brown, eggs, stevia OR savory with garlic and onion powders, baking powder with some ACV [or fire cider], seeds, chopped nuts and zante currants, dried cherries, a tbsp or two almond meal, or tapioca, arrowroot, nutritional yeast, salt always....and cook in the rice cooker, though I usually do mine in the microwave...either way. It's good
i like putting raisins & dry banana chips or dried cherries in my oatmeal while its cooking. i use dry milk instead of liquid so i can keep all the ingredients long term stocked. Just have to figure out ur water ratio accordingly.
I have a 3 cup and a 6 cup, I use one or the other depending on what I'm making. Love these videos!!!!! Have you ever dehydrated vegies and make them into powder? It's a great way to get them into your diet. I put the powder in eggs, pancakes, stews and so on.
I have a Ninja professional 1000 watt bullet blender. Some people have said they use the Nutribullet. I bought the heavy duty one because I saw someone say that they do a really good job. Once you are done dehydrating your greens (I use leafy greens like kale and spinach, but also green beans and such) and you're sure they are dry and cooled, but them in a good blender or coffee grinder. I make a quart jar or two at a time.
Goodness! I thought most people knew this but I’m happy to help! If you are on a phone you can use your finger or if you are on a computer you can use a mouse, there is a bar along the bottom of the video that you can click and drag to fast forward. If you are on a phone you can also double tap on the right side of the video screen and it will skip 10 seconds at a time! Hopefully that helps!
Electric pressure cookers are simply glorified rice cookers Get a big huge rice cooker (compared to a normal one) and make whole meals or lots of beans or big chunks of meat.. Skip the rice cooker and get an Instant Pot
@ I am not talking about weight hon ! Your sugar 🤷🏼♀️so much carb would well come diabetic to your body 😢I am diabetic and was vegan for 3 years almost died ( I know you are not vegan thank god )
@ I meant just that in order to lose weight like that I have to be extremely careful what I eat. To keep it off that long takes a lot of care and attention. Care that extends not only to the number on the scale but all my numbers, such as blood sugar, cholesterol and so on. I got it thanks 😊
Been looking for rice cooker meal ideas. Most I find on YT are the Asian crew doing Asian stuff in big, expensive Asian rice cookers that are more like Instant Pots than regular rice cookers and they use ingredients I never heard of. Frustrating.
Since I was a kid and my mom fed me cream of rice I loved it. I now make it by grinding long grain rice in my coffee grinder and cooking it in my rice cooker. 3 to 1 ratio of water to rice. I top it with tbsp of maple syrup and almond milk. Cost effective too.
I'd love to see more recipes from you with the rice cooker 👍😋💕 PLEASE
I will keep them coming! 😀

Such fun ideas & ur vibe sharing the info is so free♡
I just need to clean up my kitchen area for cooking lol instead of going out for a bite to eat ☆
I have an Aroma rice cooker. I love it. I would love more rice cooker recipes. This was my first time watching your videos.

Ain’t grains fun?
Okay - the first video was a fun watch. But now you’ve sold me. Headed over to Amazon to purchase a little rice cooker! 😆
😂 you won’t regret it lol! I’m obsessed!!!
Ya wanna know how it works, cause i just had to!!!😂

Fun, easy and creative ideas. Thanks. Love using the rice cooker.
I don’t dirty a bowl. I just mix ingredients in the cooker.
I will try the pancake and add blueberries to the batter. Hope it works in the small model which I have.
If you cant find grits you can use corn meal. The texture will be much smoother but its the same thing. In the old days we called it corn meal mush.
Grits are great with butter and brown sugar for breakfast or dinner. Or mix in some cheddar cheese for a great side dish.
Ooo when I was young my mom would make cornmeal mush! She would chill it in a log and then slice it up and pan fry it. We would eat it with syrup!!
we called cornmeal 'mush' pancakes corn jacks. Ate lots of them with pnut btr & jam.
You inspired me to buy a rice cooker. Can;t wait to try some of your recipies!
I have rice cooker and salmon in the freezer plus rice never thought about combining!!! Love the Aldi tips. Great Breakfast ideas
love it! Have to try this omelette in the rice cooker. Again, I love how you sprinkle that spinach into everything to get more nutrients. so hearty and delicious.
I’m a spinach girly til the end 💯😂

I think it's polenta. Or that's what you could use, it's also made of corn, though it might not be the same. 🇦🇺
Grits is a Southern United States main dish to eat for breakfast or as a side for a dinner.
Basically corn porridge.
I love love love your content..This is really great!!!
Thank you so much!!! 😊
I have 3_6 and 20 cup rice cookers love them for years!
Love to hear that they last a long time!
I like that frother, another small tool for camping.
Just found you ❤ your breakfast recipes... More grit recipes please

@ClaireRisper totally agree about the ease thing. I need fast and easy or I will snack for hours on the bad stuff!

Thanks for all of the great rice cooker ideas!
I just subscribed and hope for more rice cooker recipes 🎉
My hubby will love these!!! Thanks so much.❤
Looks like magic. I just bought the 3 cup and will definitely use your recipes.
I use my frother to make protein iced coffee. I add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to 1/2 skim mike and several pumps of Torani sugar free syrup (Chocolate Macadamia is my preference),and froth. Add ice and brewed coffee. Delicious.
Ooo heck yes! Frother for the win!!

It’s 20 ish minutes, I would try any of these on the white rice mode to test it out!
@@ClaireRisper Thank you.
These are great ideas!!
Thank you!
I looked at your first recipe and decided to top it with banana slices or some other fruit as I am nott a sweets person. Thanks for the idea!
For sure bananas sound great!
Love these recipes so much! Gotta get some grits for my rice cooker!
New subscriber. I found you from your other video of making recipes in the rice cooker. You sold me, so I ordered one from your link. I got it today! I can't wait to try some of these. Thank you!
Yaaaay!!!! Happy cooking 😊😊😊
Thank you! I’m going to go crazy with your ideas! Heading to Amazon now!
I got a pretty blue frother at Aldi a few months ago. I love that thing. Great recipes! ❤
I have the three quart and bought it for camping because I have lithium batteries for power.
Now I need a rice cooker! Thank you!
I love my rice cooker. I make a lot of things in it but not breakfast. I will be using it more often now.
If you want the flavor savor of cheese and are a vegan or don't have cheese, try a good sprinkle of high quality nutritional yeast. It's very good and packed with nutrition. Also can make pancakes or bready biscuity type things with flax meal, golden or brown, eggs, stevia OR savory with garlic and onion powders, baking powder with some ACV [or fire cider], seeds, chopped nuts and zante currants, dried cherries, a tbsp or two almond meal, or tapioca, arrowroot, nutritional yeast, salt always....and cook in the rice cooker, though I usually do mine in the microwave...either way. It's good
Such great ideas!
Brilliant!!
Thank you so much! 😊
Thank you, Claire
You’re welcome! 🙂
Breakfast!! That's so cool, I'm gonna go experiment with the grits and oatmeal for sure. Thank you for the ideas!
i like putting raisins & dry banana chips or dried cherries in my oatmeal while its cooking. i use dry milk instead of liquid so i can keep all the ingredients long term stocked. Just have to figure out ur water ratio accordingly.
Brilliant ideas - I subscribed yesterday - cheers from Canada
🥰
Thank you for the inspiration. How long is one cycle please?
I think she uses one white rice cycle?
I think it’s about 20 min.
Lovely all your dishes
Thank you! 😊
You have a delightful personality
That is so nice of you to say! Thanks for taking the time to tell me 🥰
Hey, thanks for the recipes and tips. You need to grind up the chia, and flax seeds....for absorbtion. :)
I googled it and actually chia seeds don’t need to be ground, their outer shell is easily digested 😊 I don’t use flax often but that’s good to know!
Pancake. Interest, I’m going to try French toast. Get it hot the throw in the French toast.
Oooo or like a French toast casserole?! This is what I mean lol I’m so inspired by you guys 🙌
Well now, I (a person who doesn't like rice), am ordering a rice cooker.
😂😂😂
love those rec &u❤
Thank you! 🥰
I have a 3 cup and a 6 cup, I use one or the other depending on what I'm making. Love these videos!!!!! Have you ever dehydrated vegies and make them into powder? It's a great way to get them into your diet. I put the powder in eggs, pancakes, stews and so on.
Good idea !
How do you get them into a powder ?
I have a Ninja professional 1000 watt bullet blender. Some people have said they use the Nutribullet. I bought the heavy duty one because I saw someone say that they do a really good job. Once you are done dehydrating your greens (I use leafy greens like kale and spinach, but also green beans and such) and you're sure they are dry and cooled, but them in a good blender or coffee grinder.

Bought this exact rice cooker best well built one I’ve seen. Hate oatmeal. Next. LOL
Must have rice cooker on vacation
Great video
Thanks so much!
Just get to it!!!!
Goodness! I thought most people knew this but I’m happy to help! If you are on a phone you can use your finger or if you are on a computer you can use a mouse, there is a bar along the bottom of the video that you can click and drag to fast forward.

brilliant
Thank you!😊
we use our rice cooker to also warm up leftovers...
All 4 recipes are a winner 🏆 Now I need to remember to make them.
I hope you give them a try! Thanks for watching 🙂
OMG I thought I was the only one who used Old Bay as a seasoning for just about every. Lol
😂 it’s the best!!!!!
how many minutes one cycle takes on your cooker?
I have different brand of rice cooker. thks.😊
I think she has said it's about 20 mins :)
@3dogmom thank you.😍
It’s a little tricky to keep,it in the cook button rather than swinging ntomwarm when you need 3 cook cycles. That’s the con performance.
I make juke. Water, chix seasoninf rice and a bit of green onion when done. Amazing!
❤❤❤❤AUNTIE APPROVED ❤❤❤❤❤❤YUMMY 😂😂😂😂😂
🥰
🥳👍🏻💖
Cooking for one just me
Can we get more recipes please ?
Definitely!
Electric pressure cookers are simply glorified rice cookers
Get a big huge rice cooker (compared to a normal one) and make whole meals or lots of beans or big chunks of meat..
Skip the rice cooker and get an Instant Pot
I also love my instant pot! However it was 5 times the price of my rice cooker so that is something to keep in mind ❤️
I think that this is amazing cooking in a rice cooker. I liked all the recipes except for the grits and not a great person.
Thank you for watching! 😊
You sure eat lots carb dear ! Check your sugar next time you going for yearly checkups 🤷🏼♀️
I actually lost 120 lbs three years ago, I got it 😂
@ I am not talking about weight hon ! Your sugar 🤷🏼♀️so much carb would well come diabetic to your body 😢I am diabetic and was vegan for 3 years almost died ( I know you are not vegan thank god )
@ I meant just that in order to lose weight like that I have to be extremely careful what I eat. To keep it off that long takes a lot of care and attention. Care that extends not only to the number on the scale but all my numbers, such as blood sugar, cholesterol and so on. I got it thanks 😊
@haydehabdolahian7691 calm down Karen.
You sure sound condescending Honey Dear.

What the hells “grits”?
Asking from South Africa too...
It's made from corn, if you have access to polenta that might be an okay substitute , I understand it's not as creamy from the Ai explanation 😊🇦🇺
No thank you
This comment is sooo productive 😒
Oh Lord, deliver me from Uptalkers, in thy Mercy!
You could literally exit out of the video. Taking the time to leave a comment is wild 🙃
🙄🙄 move along
