BROWNED BUTTER KRISPY RICE TREATS

Steps:

• Pour the Rice Krispies into a very large wok, reserving the box and bag. (If you don't have a wok, pull out the largest pot you've got.) Place over medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently and adjusting the heat as needed, until the cereal has turned slightly darker brown and tastes toasted. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Place the butter in the wok and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring and swirling the pan frequently, until the butter melts, foams, and turns light golden brown.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the marshmallows. Cook, now stirring with a rubber spatula, until melted and smooth. Stir in the salt.
• Reduce the heat all the way to low and add the Rice Krispies back to the wok. Stir gently until all of the cereal is coated with the marshmallow mixture, then remove from the heat.
• Spray the inside of the now-empty cereal bag with non-stick oil spray, then carefully pack the Rice Krispie mixture into the bag. Let cool before eating straight from the box.

CARAMELIZED BROWN BUTTER RICE KRISPIES TREATS

Steps:

• Line rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or wax paper, or butter it well.
• In a large pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. It will melt, then foam, then turn clear golden and finally start to turn brown and smell nutty. Watch closely and stir often.
• When butter is evenly browned, stir in marshmallows. (If using unsalted butter, stir in 1/8 teaspoon salt.) Melt and cook, stirring often, until mixture turns pale brown, then stir constantly until lightly browned but not dark, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Turn off heat, add cereal, and mix well, preferably with a silicone spoon or a spatula. Scrape into prepared pan and press down lightly. If necessary, butter hands to press mixture flat. Let cool, and cut into squares or bars.

THE BEST BROWN BUTTER SALTED RICE KRISPIES® TREATS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Add marshmallows to browned butter, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until marshmallows are melted, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Stir bourbon and 1 teaspoon sea salt into marshmallow mixture and remove saucepan from heat. Add rice cereal to marshmallow mixture and mix until cereal is evenly coated with marshmallow mixture; transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper over rice cereal mixture and press into dish. Remove parchment paper and sprinkle flaked sea salt over the top. Cool treats to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.

BURN RICE

Steps:

• Put the rice and oil to fry in a small pan at high heat, stirring from time to time, until golden (about 5 minutes).
• At the same time put the water to boil.
• When the water is boiling, add it to the rice (take care, it will bubble violently).
• Add the salt.
• Turn the heat to low and put the lid loosely on the pan.
• Let it simmer for 12-15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
• Remove from the heat and let it wait covered for 5-10 minutes.
• Serve as a side dish to any meat or with beans.

BURNT BUTTERSCOTCH RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a wide, shallow saucepan until starting to sizzle, then add the rice. Toast the rice gently for about 4 mins in the butter until just starting to turn light brown, then scatter over 100g of the sugar and cook for a few mins more until the sugar is starting to dissolve.
• Pour in the cream, stir and boil until all the sugar has dissolved into a thick butterscotch sauce, then gradually stir in 500ml of the milk and the vanilla extract. Simmer everything gently for about 45 mins, stirring often. If towards the end of the cooking time the liquid is too thick and the rice isn't cooked yet, add another 100ml milk and carry on cooking. The finished consistency should be like a really creamy risotto.
• When the pudding is cooked, tip it into a shallow, heatproof serving dish. Scatter the rest of the sugar over the top, and grill or blowtorch until sizzling and just starting to burn. Leave the sugar to form a crisp layer and serve hot or cold straight from the dish.

BUTTERED WILD RICE

Steps:

• Run cold water over the rice until the water is clear. Drain.
• Put the rice in a saucepan and add the water and salt to taste.
• Bring to a boil and simmer uncovered one hour. At this point the rice grains should be puffed open. If not, remove from the heat and let the rice stand in the hot cooking water until puffed. Drain well. Return the rice to the saucepan and cover tightly. If desired, the rice may be served by stirring in three tablespoons of butter.
