Re: Oatmeal
I don't know for sure, but I think so. I don't see how boiling water could make it better for you. I like to sprinkle it dry on yogurt. Also, I like that old fashioned/non-instant oatmeal. -
Re: Oatmeal
yeh- dont think it would work w/ the steel cut oats tho- or maybe it would, cuz I've put almonds and flax in my smoothie and they blend out :hmmm:
ANyhoo, i particularly haaaateeeee the steel cut oats :vomitous: when its cooked, cuz it have like a chewy type a bite back to it!!! or maybe i need to cook it out even more, but i do try to practically vaporize the ting to how long mi have it on the stove.Comment

Re: Oatmeal
I would not say the steel cut are as rough as almonds lol. Maybe you can cook them longer or use more water, but if you like the instant, then I don't think none of that is going to help.
I like the texture of them better raw and when they are done. I agree they are a little thicker though.Comment

Re: Oatmeal
mi was talking bout using steel cut oats- not rolled, not nutn else
must i descend into standard english wid u Tulip? Must I?!?!

I have used the regular (quaker) oats, uncooked, in smoothies, but I havent tried it with steel cut oats, ie never put the steel cut in smoothie. IN other thoughts- the steel cut oats dont taste nice to me when i cook them, no matter how long i cook them for! English is long and hard!

You are hilarious. I did not know the difference between steel cut and rolled. I thought they were all instant or not instant. Now I'm going to have to review my position.
Unfortunately, I put my new ones in a canister after I opened the plastic bag that was inside the red box. I just would know them if I saw them again. Hmm, maybe they are rolled.Comment

Re: Oatmeal
So I had to take a moment to try to sort it out a bit. My oats are definitely rolled but not as wide and flat the Quaker:
From what I could see based on the first few sites in the results, they both contain the same part of the oat. The rolled are processed though for quicker cooking and the steel-cut are not. http://www.formerfatguy.com/articles/oatmeal/oats.asp
It makes sense that I would think the steel cut are better for you, but I didn't expect them to look so grainy.Comment
