There is an infinite amount of recipes on the internet, but not many are as synonymous with cycling as the one for rice cakes. It\u2019s always a good idea to seek inspiration among those who enjoy the same lifestyle as you, meaning they love cycling. There are so many cyclists who regularly use and love rice cakes that it can\u2019t be assigned to just one. But one person stands out as the most qualified to make them.<\/strong>
\n<\/p>\n

Team Sky can\u2019t get enough of these<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Chris Froome considers rice cakes his secret weapon and, after close examination, it seems it\u2019s pretty much the whole Team Sky that enjoys them. And there might be one man that\u2019s responsible for that – the head chef for Team Sky, Henrik Orre.<\/p>\n

\u201cRice cakes are my absolute favourite food for the jersey. I cook them a lot for the riders. Everyone who discovers them finds them to be their little favourite.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recipe: Rice Cakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This recipe comes from a book called V\u00e9lochef by Team Sky\u2019s head chef Henrik Orre. It\u2019s an iconic cycling snack designed to give riders plenty of easy-to-digest energy. It\u2019s full of complex and simple carbs as you would expect. But it became popular because it\u2019s a solid, crunchy, and tasty food that can replace energy bars. Riders learn to love them when a thought of another gooey gel and the samey bar is repulsive. This recipe yields approximately 20 cakes, give it a try. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u2022 500 g carnaroli rice (risotto rice)
