Homemade Crispy Rice Cereal

Instructions

1. Place a sieve over a metal bowl.
2. In a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet over high heat, warm the salt until it turns grey or a thermometer placed in the centre reads 400°F (200°C).
3. Reduce the heat to medium. Add 1/4 cup (50 g) of the rice. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon just until all of the grains pop. Strain through the sieve. Set the crispy rice aside in another bowl. Return the salt to the skillet. Repeat these steps with the remaining rice, maintaining the temperature of the salt at 400°F (200°C).
4. Let the crispy rice cool completely. The crispy rice cereal will keep for 1 month in an airtight container at room temperature.
