My rice cooker has ‘Cake’ setting. I have found it is the best way to cook Upside-down Cakes, but it is perfect for cooking crust-less Quiche and Frittata as well. I have shared my ‘Rice Cooker Zucchini Frittata’ and ‘Spinach and Ham Frittata’ recipes on this website. Here is another one for you to try. …
If your rice cooker has ‘Cake’ setting, it cooks not only cakes but also crust-less Quiche and Frittata. My ‘Rice Cooker Zucchini Frittata’ is super easy. Today I made ‘Spinach and Ham Frittata’ using a 120g bag of Baby Spinach. I LOVE Baby Spinach because it is easy to use. If you use ordinary Spinach, …
When I was a child, my family’s breakfast was Bread and Hot Drink. Some mornings, when my mother realised we didn’t have enough Bread, she often made steamed Bread. If she’d had a rice cooker that cooks Cake, she would have used it. This Carrot Bread was cooked in the rice cooker. The top side …
I heard ‘Scoop Cake’ has recently become quite popular in Japan. I believe it has been strongly influenced by the English dessert ‘Trifle’. However, ‘Scoop Cake’ in Japan is more like a shortcake in a bowl. It can be made with the clumsiest hands, because the sponge cake doesn’t have to be perfectly baked and …
In Japan, there is a type of Sushi called ‘Oshi-zushi’, that is made by pressing Sushi Rice and Toppings into a special mould, then it is cut into bite sized pieces to serve. This is a variation of it and it has become very popular. A round cake tin is used as mould, and it …
Since my crust-less ‘Easy Quiche’ was perfectly cooked in my rice cooker, I have been cooking a variety of foods in the rice cooker. If ‘Quiche’ works, the ‘Frittata’ should work. Pre-cooking can be done in the microwave, so I can cook this Frittata even on a scorching hot day. I cook it in the …
Steaming is not the popular method to make cakes in Australia. I have made cakes using different methods such as oven, steamer, frying pan and rice cooker, and I can say that the steamer makes the softest and moistest cakes. Today, to make this cake, I used a pot and a flat steamer rack, which …
After I successfully made the cheesecake using my rice cooker, I thought my crust-less Quiche would be easy to cook in the same method. This is a hard-to-fail recipe as I add some Flour to the mixture. Rice Cooker is so easy and energy-efficient way to cook a Quiche, but you would rather bake it …
‘Chikuwa’ is a Japanese tubular-shape fish cake. The other day I wanted to cook my favourite ‘Abura-age & Carrot Takikomigohan’, which I crave sometimes, but I didn’t have Abura-age (Fried Thin Tofu). I added Chikuwa instead, and it turned out really yummy. I added some Sesame Oil and I believe it was a good decision. …
When I have some Over Ripe Pears, I usually bake ‘Pear Upside-down Cake’. ‘Rice Cooker Pear Upside-down Cake’ is easier. However, my husband recently stopped eating cakes and I shouldn’t bake cakes. So, I made this ‘Pear Crumble’ today. I used less amount of Butter and Sugar than this recipe, and it still tasted good. …
‘Oshi-zushi’ is a type of Sushi and it is made by pressing Sushi Rice and Toppings in a special mould called ‘Oshibako’ to create rectangle block, then it is cut into bite sized pieces to serve. But you don’t need the special mould. I use a plastic container and a small chopping board to press. …
