Sea salt chocolate sticky bites from Skratch Labs

This video popped up in my Twitter feed earlier today and before I had finished watching it, I knew it was the perfect fit for Ella Eats. Having seen the interest in portables amongst our readers following our two features on #SwannyorRider Emilie Moberg, I am confident that this sea salt chocolate sticky bites recipe from Skratch Labs will be a welcome addition to those that are interesting in diversifying their “real food” ride food recipes.

While I have yet to test these out myself, the Skratch Labs kitchen has consistently delivered crowd-pleaser after crowd-pleaser, and I trust that these bites are no exception. You can find the original recipe here and discover additional recipes from Skratch Labs here.

Ingredients

1 cup uncooked sticky rice
1/2 cup uncooked rolled oats
2 cups water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons bittersweet chocolate (chips or shaved)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
dash of sea salt
toppings: 2 tablespoons shaved bittersweet chocolate, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions:

Combine oats, rice, and water with salt in a rice cooker and cook. Let cool.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooked rice and oats with the remaining ingredients. Stir to incorporate the flavours evenly throughout the mixture.
Press into an airtight storage container or shape as individual bites. Sprinkle with chocolate and salt

  I don’t own the books but have lived with people who have owned them so have gotten to use them both (or eat things made from them) regularly. I love both books but as I’m more interested in off-the-bike food than on-the-bike food (personally), I prefer the first book – The Feed Zone Cookbook. In saying that, I think both would make a fantastic addition to anyone’s cookbook collection.

  Spider, I’ve got both books, and as Jessi says, I too would personally recommend the FZ cookbook. Theres some great recipes in there and what I like most of all is they are designed to cook quickly which suits me well. Also I often use it for everyday meals not just for after ride meals.
  If I was training for a big event and doing more long rides I’m sure the portables would come in more handy, but with a young family my bike time is limited to shorter rides that I don’t need a lot of on the bike food for.

Hmm, rice based snacks no thanks. I’ll stay with other alternatives…
“Uncooked rice often contains the bacteria Bacillus cereus. These bacteria can form protective spores that survive the cooking process and if the rice is cooled slowly (and left between 5 °C and 60 °C for a long time), these bacteria spores can germinate, grow and produce a toxin (poison) that causes vomiting.” (Department of Health. Australia)

  Eat the next day (fridge overnight) or same day and it will be fine.

  I am regularly making a big batch of rice cakes which I then cut into pieces and store in freezer. Never had any problems, they are fine up to two days in fridge after overnight de-frost. Usually I would make the pieces of a size enough to feed me for two 4-5hr rides, so I don’t need to de-frost and take them out every day.

UMMM…do you realize who is behind that BS company? SORRY no interest in some liar who was DEEP into the Postal Service doping program and has recently denied knowing anything about it. LIAR. I’m not even going to type his name here.

I ask you at CyclingTips…as you try to promote a new era in cycling, especially with something like Ella…WHY ARE YOU TELLING YOUR READERS ABOUT THIS COMPANY, AND THUS, TO SUPPORT AND MAKE THAT DIRTBAG LIAR EVEN WEALTHIER?

Seriously, why are you promoting this guy? I’d rather burn my money than give it to him. Big, big F U to this company and all their products. Zero interest in making someone intimately tied up in all that lying, cheating, career assassination and thievery even more money.
