Delicious BUT it does take a HALF AN HOUR to cook. So this is what I have been missing all of these years.
Add a little bit of yogurt to create the acidic environment: I use one TBSP per 1/2 cup of oatmeal and 1/2 cup of warm water.Oatmeal should be eaten with some fat (many of the vitamins are fat soluble), so I add butter or cream. FYI, medium- to long-term is it unhealthy to consume steel-cut oatmeal UNLESS you soak it in warm water with something acidic between 12 to 24 hours, preferably some fermented milk product like yogurt, kefir, buttermilk, etc. Soaking the oatmeal at least overnight neutralizes the enzyme inhibitors. While short-term this may be beneficial (eat meaters stockpile extra iron, copper, etc.
Long time Oatmeal eater here. I also add shredded flax and coconut, increasing the healthiness of my breakfast. Additionally, it allows you to cook up the oatmeal in about five minutes, versus over 30 minutes when left unsoaked.This recipe follows the recipe in Nourishing Traditions, but basically soak one part oatmeal with one part lukewarm water. I usually bought McCann's in the store, but it can get pretty pricey.
over time), medium-term this could lead to deficiencies in essential metals. I then top it off with plenty of raw honey (also from Amazon), which sweetens my porridge and thus makes me look forward to breakfast in the morning.Enjoy. Amazon is a great deal, and you get free shipping. Reason being is that oatmeal contains in its hull enzyme inhibitors that have a chelating effect on your body, i.e., they remove metal from your body.
It doesn't have a mushy texture but a very chewy texture and I highly recommend it. It really gives oatmeal a whole new taste. This is easily the best oatmeal out there. We won't eat anything else.
The only imperfection is there is a slight stale smell when opening each can. It's just what I wanted for my breakfast. but wiil be gone few days later. After reading reviews online, I bought this product. On my Zojirushi rice cooker, I set a morning timer for cooking Oatmeal porridge.
I am indoctrinating all my friends. Thanks for a fine product. This oatmeal is without a doubt the best thing to come down the pike. I am 77 years old and my mother made me Quaker oatmeal as a child - but this steel cut is so delicious I will never go back to that paper tasting slop again.
