[Circuit Breaker] Cooking with Perfect Earth Pasta

Received the Perfect Earth Pasta from my friends at Forever Young Enterprise, a well-known and established Organic and Natural Health Food provider in the industry. I was most impressed that the Perfect Earth Pasta is a range of gluten-free, allergen-free, gmo-free, suitable for vegan and is also Kosher certified product. Wow!

Now, let's do the taste test. I'm not much of a cook and the last I had cooked any pasta was, hmm...possibly right after my university days and during share house period? Like, about more than 10 years ago? Hahaha, I'm usually a ramyeon person more than a pasta lover. However, am excited to try Perfect Earth Pasta because I didn't know that know there's such a wide range of pasta available made of the various rice like organic range of black rice, red rice and brown rice, plus there's another range with chia seeds!

Randomly chose one to try, and decided on the Perfect Earth Organic Chia Pasta Brown Rice. Going to do a kimchi chicken bulgogi sauce for the pasta.

let's try this

Here are the ingredients for the sauce

1. One pack of kimchi - I used Bibigo stir-fried kimchi pack (80g)
2. Two large cloves of garlic - chopped
3. One small slim carrot - chopped
4. One big yellow onion - sliced
5. One pack of chicken bulgogi - about 330g


At home, the stove is not working, so most of the time, I can only do cooking in the pot or in the toaster. For this experiment, I used the rice cooker to cook the meat and the sauce, while the soup pot is used to boil the pasta.

To cook the chicken

1. Heat up the oil in the rice-cooker
2. Placed in the chopped garlic and brown it till fragrant
3. Placed in the onions and carrots. Fry till onions are soft.
4. Add in the chicken bulgogi and brown it for about 5 minutes
5. Pour in the kimchi. Add water to the sauce in the kimchi pack and put it together with the meat
6. Simmer for another 10 mins

To cook the pasta

1. Put salt into the water and wait till it boils
2. Drop in the pasta sticks (2 handfuls for 2 pax)
3. Cook for about 5 minutes and it should have softened but still al-dente
4. Drain the pasta and move the pasta into the chicken pot
5. Toss well and simmer for about a minute will do

I liked the texture of the cooked pasta which is not too al-dente and not too soft too. The chia seeds gave it a lovely texture, much like toasted sesame.

Easy to cook, healthy and reasonably priced! Let's stock up some of these in the food cupboard, shall we?
