Cooking Noodles in a Rice Cooker? Yes!

I’m a passionate user of rice cookers. A rice cooker nerd if you will. I did spend some years without a rice cooker when I first moved to Canada, and let’s just say I do not wish to live that way again 😂.

In Thailand, every home with electricity has a rice cooker. Growing up I didn’t even know it was possible to cook rice without a rice cooker - it felt like the most essential appliance in the house! Then I spent a year living with a homestay family in New Zealand, and they cooked rice in a microwave…and it blew my mind 🤯.

Recently my mind was blown yet again when I found out that you can also cook NOODLES in a rice cooker! And that’s the subject of my latest video, where I give you a guide on how and why it works, when it doesn’t work, and why you’d even want to do it in the first place.

To demonstrate the technique I show you how to make goong ob woonsen, a popular Thai dish with glass noodles, shrimp, and ginger. But think of the recipe as just an example; you can change up the ingredients and make something else!
