My mate's brother used to work in the Kellogg's factory in Manchester. His job was to wat h the cereal go.past on a conveyor belt and flick out any burnt bits with a spoon. He was able to eat as many cornflakes, frosties, rice Krispies and Coco pops as he could fill his cheeks with. He was eventually replaced by a robot with a compressed air gun
My uncle had a job putting the cherrys on trifle decades before a machine could do it, every day, a big pot of glace cherries and a conveyer belt with trifles whizzing past, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week for about 20 years!!! I couldn't begin to calculate the number of trifles he 'cherried' over that 2 decades.

From recipes I know and as you did on second round. make puffed rice by first cooking it, then deep frying and draining, Frying raw rice results - as you showed - burning not popping. Keep up the brave and fun videos, Barry!
In the US that bag of cereal would be more like 10 dollars even our off brand bulk bags are more than five dollars. Alternative to baking the chocolate into the cereal , add the chocolate to the rice cooker and cook the chocolate in that way .
Where in the US do you live? Just curious where the prices are that high, that's rough... Here in Michigan, a 20-28oz box is like $5-6. Then the knock off versions are usually a dollar less (and usually a larger amount as well)
It shouldn’t only be about cost. It’s about being in better control of what you eat. Breakfast cereals have been found to have pesticides, microplastics & forever chems. Add onto that packaging that can’t/doesn’t get recycled. It makes a lot of sense to make your own. But I would go the salt method as oil fried Rice Krispies does not sound appealing as cereal.
4:05 Barry, if you have an Indian grocery store in your area, ask them for _mamra_ or _murmura,_ which is basically the same thing, crispy puffed rice... if you do want to make it at home, i have seen videos of people making _mamra_ by putting a ladle-ful of uncooked rice into a large wok that's filled with heated salt or sand, and then taking it out after 20 seconds and passing it through a colander/sieve (or in some cases, a bamboo basket) to filter out the salt/sand. i suggest you try it in your outdoor kitchen once it's finished, and please wear protective gloves (and use other precautionary measures as reqd.)
We don't eat cereal for breakfast generally partially cause cereal is really expensive right now and it takes so much to get full and partially cause don't feel right about eating that much sugar first thing in the morning but we do sometimes get it as a treat every now and again if it's on special but then we eat it like desert rather than a full meal
I’m such a sucker for a sugary cereal but never even crossed my mind to do this! Glad the rice cooker has come in handy again already 😂 Dying to see S’mores cereal!
My Brother had a quick fix when he was told no to coco pops (££ & hard to find), it is genius. Normal rice crispy & chocolate milkshake, cheaper too. Your experiments are great.
you can grind the roasted rice and add to thai salad its a Thai staple for certain salads like grilled beef or laab (chicken on pork) it adds a really unusual nutty flavor. Grind with a mortar not a machine otherwise it will become too fine. You're welcome :)
Also when you said that pun about the cereal shrinkage and then about your daughters, there is a term that came to my mind "Inflation vs deflation" sums that pun up all by itself! :D
That's amazing, well done Barry - I mean I read that it was puffed rice on the packaging before but I assume they did something magical in the factory rather than deep frying. It does really make you think... maybe we shouldn't be having this for breakfast?!
Puffage results from overcooked starches that have been dehydrated to a specific humidity,not too moist, not too dry. I did that with those spiral pastas some time ago. Overcook the hell out of them, dry them in a dehydrator or like 80C oven for a few hours, then deep fry them.
And I think the actual coco pops may be actually using the cooked starches, blend them to a paste with the cocoa and stuff, extrude and dry these tiny nuggets and then fry them (obviously with industrial equipment pressure frying is way easier than at home)
I have been looking into puffed starches (rice, potato, tapioca) for some time since I found that you can just drop some.types of rice noodles (somehow not all work equally well) into really hot oil for like 10 seconds and you get a super puffed huge bowl of snacks.. checking how these noodles are made it's basically just grinding the starch, cooking it very well (apparently that does something to the molecules), then drying them with the intention to drop them into a soup or something later, but as a side effect, if you deep fry them in very hot oil (220°c) they puff up immediately. Don't leave them frying for more than a few seconds or they will turn brown and slightly bitter
I know the aim was cocopops but not gonna lie, I could have eaten the boiled rice out of the rice cooker by the spoonful. But well done for the result! I probably wouldn't try myself but it's been a fascinating journey to find out it IS possible!
You could probably skip a few steps and use "Quick-cook" rice, which has already gone through the process of cooking and drying in a factory, and you're basically re-hydrating it and heating it up at home when using it for normal dishes... :)
Never heard of it and I’m British. Do you mean the microwave rice in packets or do you mean easy cook normal rice which is basically rice you still have to boil?
@@shvat26 I certainly did but autocorrect got in the way again. I once sent a text my nipper in school sayings his art pencils were under the bed. Autocorrect changed it art penises under the bed.
Try heating pan with dry salt no water then put the rice in it. Salt doesn’t burn but it does hold heat and surrounds the rice cooking it on every face of the rice.
As to visiting the Kellogg's factory: they regularly have tours. Went to the Battle Creek, Michigan plant (not sure what all that they make there. Definitely corn and frosted flakes) multiple times as a kid, as well as the Jiffy mix plant in Chelsea, Michigan. Was kind of at the 3rd point of that triangle growing up. Hour or so from both. 😁 And they might still give free samples. 😉
what can you do with prunes? any ideas on a desert that incorperates prunes...? to make them less boring? i like prunes juice and brandy, but id like to use the prunes for something instead of wasting them.
Hiya Berry! For people who eat sweet cereals that is an excellent recipe at home. I'd have to go with the graham cereal. That was a great recipe you did too. It's always great to enjoy your cooking videos. Thank you!!!
That's really cool but I have two observations: 1. No, rice does not have all those vitamins and certainly not at significant amounts, and 2. I don't know how much your time is worth, but mine is worth a whole lot more than 3 pounds a day, or even 3 pounds an hour. I would love to do this with my kids just to show them the science of how they're made but when it comes to daily use, I'll just buy things ready made.
Barry, have you seen those videos where it's Asian (China I think) street vendors that make puffed rice on the spot? They literally put the rice in some sort of canon typ apparatus and then literally "explode" the rice inside to make puffed rice. I'm not sure exactly how it works, but man is it INSTANT puffed rice, and a lot of it, and then they sell it just like that or flavour it :) No oil involved what I can see!
The "cannon" gets sealed and heated, making the pressure inside build up (meaning the water gets to boiling and even beyond, but can't turn into steam). So when they open it, the water inside the rice kernels turns into steam immediately and makes the rice puff up. Same principle as popcorn, just that the vessel takes the role of the corn's hull.
Put a good amount (700 g) of salt into a wok, heat it to 420 ° F, start stearing it with a whisk, put in a smaler amount of "dry, parboiled rice" (as bought from the store) and keep steering. Sieve the pops out, there you go.
I *think* I recall that the 'air' is actually nitrogen which doesn't react so keeps them fresher tasting for longer (same with crisps) and also without a 'air' (nitrogen) cushion the contents would suffer a direct hit when being carried.
Maybe if you freeze dried the cooked chocolate rice it would puff up and or become crunchy? Not sure if it would work after adding milk. Just a thought.
Sometimes you can pop rice and other grains in an old fashioned popcorn maker. The rice just needs to not be completely dried out. Steaming the dry rice a few minutes should be fine.
Puff rice is cooked under pressure with no oil. Just plain dry rice. You could probably do it in a home pressure cooker. They all Puff in an instant once the pressure is released.
This took me back to 1984... pregnant with twins - lived at the bottom of a hill, but we had a gorgeous corner shop which sold limited groceries, etc. At least once a week or fortnight I'd get an insurmountable craving for Coco Pops... luckily Thelma stocked them! I'd walk/waddle (in later trimesters) up the street (justifying the added carbs by actually WALKING to get them!) and enjoy a gigantic bowl with FULL CREAM MILK! Wonderful memories! But I'm not going to make them for my 6 year old granddaughter (who loves them sans milk maybe at breakfast time but also, just crunchy snack) 375 g AU$7 and (on special) 650g AU$7 950g AU$11.00 and Gluten Free variety 390g AU$7.25 today in Australia at one of our major supermarket chains (Woolworths)
Hey Barry, if something is vitamin and mineral "fortified" or "enriched", it means they are added in during the manufacturing process, not naturally occurring. Most cereals have vitamins and minerals added to them to meet nutritional requirements of various food organisations like the FSANZ and has been going on since the 1940's to help combat nutritional deficiencies (because cereal and margarine etc. are cheaper and more easily available in food deserts, for poorer people and during times when there is a scarcity of produce, such as due to disasters), it also just happens to look good in marketing as well, despite the general unhealthiness of some foods. Some food products are actually legally required to be fortified in some places, in Australia for example, bread flour must be legally fortified with thiamine and folic acid.
In the US, these are called "Cocoa Krispies." Each time you said "Coco Pops," I mentally translated it to "Coco Puffs" - which are small chocolate ball-shaped cereal made from corn. I guess those can be nice too though.
Haha - my poor brain was slightly confused!😂 I had myself questioning my memory… "Wait - ARRRE they called Coco Pops??🤔😧 Coco Pops? Coco Puffs? Did I just make up Coco Puffs & it’s really Pops?? Reese's Puffs? But those are round… so maybe it IS Coco Pops & Reese's has the Puffs. Ugh! (as I tap the Google icon) this is gonna drive me nuts!" 😂😁😂🤓
Hi Barry, I have a feeling they use a machine to puff the Rice. Otherwise you would taste the grease on the rice ? Good on yah for trying ! JO JO IN VT 🇺🇲💞
Bet you can air fry the rice if you lightly toss it in oil first. A quick web search gave me an oven recipe using a little oil in a baking tray then in to the oven to puff up rather than frying it. Pretty sure you could adapt that one fairly easily.

Remember to factor in energy usage when you're figuring out if it's cheaper to make your own or not - gas aint cheap at the moment!
Damn right!
And the oven on for 2 hours!! That alone, without the gas hob .. 1kw oven for 2 hours … is at least 54p at the current price cap.

Great tip! I was thinking about frying up some rice for this and realized I have a bag in the cupboard lol
your absolutely killing it with the cereal Barry. you are indeed a cereal killer. haha sorry couldn't resist
It awesome 🎉❤ I'm going to try it and see if I like it better not much a cereal person so I wonder if it better homemade
Awesome, just take your time with it to dry out properly! The rice krispies alone are super good!
If there's anything less healthy than highly processed cereal, it's got to be deep fried cereal (homemade or not).

Nothing wrong with deep fry cooking. All it does is impart the heat much more quickly. Done properly there is no oil transferred to the food.

It's also there, like in chips, to help prevent them getting crushed
Try heating pan with dry salt no water then put the rice in it. Salt doesn’t burn but it does hold heat and surrounds the rice cooking it on every face of the rice.
Personally, I think the coconut oil is a smart choice. Not only is the oil heart-healthy, but it would give the cereal a Bounty Bar vibe.
Ahhh ya😂😮😅
instead of frying in oil could we air fry the rice?
Coco flakes are SO MUCH BETTER than the Rice Crispy variant! Cheers from Denmark!
As to visiting the Kellogg's factory: they regularly have tours. Went to the Battle Creek, Michigan plant (not sure what all that they make there.

Great video Barry as usual. Are you able to make rice cakes !
The burger sized or mini ones.
Another great video. Hope you got everything sorted with your electrician 😂
One of the rare occasions where your airfryer with the turning paddle would have actually helped you baz
barry use the air fryer rice pops with the chocolate sauce you mixed im certain it will come out like coco pops

There is no B-12 in rice. It’s added to cereal same as iron as they’re fortified. So, yours is basically just sugar based 😂😂😂
