Fresh Rice Noodles

[Tebasile]

Amazing Chookie !!! I'm going to try this with brown basmat rice.

[JulieO]

Wow Chookie  they look great, thanks for working this out.

Thinking of this again last night (do a lot of thinking in bed and not much sleeping) and wondered if you packaged portions using your cryovac machine Chookie, how long they would last that way.  The last lot of shelf fresh noodles I bought has a use by date of Nov '10 and isn't even kept in the fridge.

Chookie,think of all the money you have saved us.

A couple of thoughts....... I would allow between 1 and 1  1/2 hours to make these,  after soaking over night.
                                     Judy,   that is a good idea,  I'll give it a go.
                                     Tebasile,  I think this would work fine.
                                     Any ideas anyone how potato flour would work?

Potato flour in lieu of what Chookie?

[achookwoman]

JD,  potato flour instead of rice flour.   I found a book on Noodles today.   Family Circle,  'noodles"  Looks like it will be useful.

[Tebasile]

They were easy to make and more than delicious. I steamed them in glas bowls and will use them for lasagna  . Thanks again Harmony and Chookie  . 

[achookwoman]

Tebasile,  what sort of glass bowls?   I put some in a sealed plastic bag and will use them tonight for a stir fry.   Glad they worked out well for you.

[Tebasile]

I used a rectangular and a round lock&lock oven proof bowl and greased with coconut oil. I post a picture tomorrow. Enjoy your stir fry. We tried some with ratatouille tonight  .

Brown Rice Basmati Lasagne Sheets 

[achookwoman]

Elizbeth,  were these cooked in the Varoma?   They look great and can be used in many dishes.  I like the idea of Brown rice.  Today I made a Chinese Lasagna.  Will post the recipe later.   

[Tebasile]

Yes Chookie, between 3 and 4 minutes. I'm looking forward to your Chinese Lasagna recipe. Our favourite is spinach with tofu.

Thanks Harmony. I was sure that I had posted something about making noodles in the Varoma tray with wet paper as JD had suggested.  Can't find anything??

I have made them with rice that was ground down and also some with half rice & half arrowroot (the proper stuff-not tapioca flour).

The only problem that I had was that you need to make a few trays for a big meal.  But it is like the noodles I saw made in Viet-Nam. 

Thanks for putting it together Chookie.  Glad we had some rain (for more than one reason)

All hail Chookie for all her hard work, I must confess I've spent a grand total of several minutes thinking about this since I posted it  but I have a good excuse, my kids have been sick!

They are better now, hubby is taking them out for the whole day tomorrow while I TMX up a storm for my T'ware party at 2pm, maybe I'll get time to try the noodles as well
