Frequently asked questions about full butter puffed rice cakes
How long are the blown rice cakes keep?
Se conservati in un contenitore ermetico a temperatura ambiente, si mantengono croccanti per 3 o 4 giorni. Evita il frigorifero, perché tende a indurirli troppo.
Can I prepare them in advance?
Sì, puoi prepararli anche il giorno prima. Anzi, dopo qualche ora sono ancora più compatti e facili da tagliare. Ti consigliamo di coprirli bene appena raffreddati.
Is it possible to replace the butter with a vegetable alternative?
Certo. Puoi usare burro vegetale o margarina senza grassi idrogenati. Anche l’olio di cocco (meglio se deodorato) è un’ottima alternativa, ma cambia leggermente il gusto.
Can they freeze?
Non è consigliato. Il congelamento altera la consistenza del riso soffiato, che tende a diventare gommoso una volta scongelato. Meglio prepararli freschi in pochi minuti.
