I like whole grain oatmeal more than Hercules, and even more so flakes that do not need to be boiled at all. Probably, also from the fact that I read a lot about the benefits of whole oats. And the passion for grain oats began with the fact that a very long time ago at one of the Tashkent bazaars, in the ranks of cereals, I saw a seller with a bag of oats. "Why is he?" I asked. In broken Russian, the seller began to explain that they were being treated, and he had many regular customers taking him. And what if I buy this oats, wash them, fill them with water in a glass, and drink the next day, then I will become zhuda yam chiroili (very beautiful) and skin - zur, hair - zur. (Zur is a type of excellence - slang) And leaning towards me, he whispered so that my husband would not hear: “There will be no female sore. 70 years will be - you can give birth! Wow! - I thought, - this is how many children you can give birth to on one oat. Finally, the seller said that the soaked grains should not be thrown away, boiled or added to the cake. There were no diabetic patients among my acquaintances, which is why I probably did not come across grain oats before. I will not write for oat miracles for health. written without me. Type in the search "oats medicinal properties" and read out.

Well, after that meeting, I began to read a lot about oats. Well, the Makropulos remedy, I concluded. Use and live forever.

Now we are talking about a delicious viscous gelatinous porridge made from infused oat grains, boiled in the same water in which they were infused. One thing in such a mess is bad - completely discourages appetite. And this is sad. And I don't want anything but her. So, it performs some processes in the body. Therefore, if there are any chronic sores, first read about the properties of oats. Although serious contraindications to oats have not yet been identified, there are people with individual intolerance.

We sort out the oats, clean them from foreign grains. Rinse well with running water. For soaking, I use a liter jar. I pour a quarter of the jar and add boiling water to three quarters of the height of the jar. Thus, the ratio of oats and water is approximately 1: 3. I leave it to infuse overnight.

I pour the oats along with water into a thick-walled saucepan, put it on the stove and wait for it to boil. As soon as it starts to boil, reduce the heat to a minimum. Do not bring to a boil. A thick infusion will foam and “run away” worse than milk. From that, the pan should not be closed with a lid. In general, it is best, of course, it is better to simmer such porridge without boiling in the oven.

So, without boiling, the porridge is evaporated for 40-50 minutes. You need to periodically approach and stir it (to the porridge), removing the accumulated jelly from the walls. This infusion turns into a thick jelly, the grains boil soft. This jelly, by the way, is very good for using a face mask. You can add honey. Remarkable effect.

Salt almost ready-made porridge. You can add raisins, chopped dried apricots or prunes. Slightly steam dried fruits in porridge. Turn off the stove. We close the saucepan with a lid and leave to cool to a temperature at which porridge can be eaten without burning. It's on an electric stove. If the stove is gas, then wrap the saucepan with a towel and let the porridge cool slowly.
Sugar and butter should not be added to such porridge. She's amazingly good as it is. Moreover, it turns out to be jelly-like, and there is no need to soften it.

Another time I’ll write about oatmeal in a cast-iron, or about cakes. I also think a lot about haggis.

Warning the questions of Tashkent friends, I will say that our local Asianfood began to produce whole grain oats in yellow-blue packs, and it is sold in many stores - you just need to pay attention.
