They are. Irish oats are considered one of the healthier grains in the world, with numerous dietary advantages. Irish oats are also a complex carbohydrate that provides a longer lasting source of energy with low saturated fat, and thus good for those struggling with weight loss.
The processing also leads to other differences between regular oats and Irish oats. One of the major differences is in cooking times: Salt won’t make the oats taste salty. Rather, it wakes up their flavor and helps ensure the oats are not at all bland. Irish oats are also known for being a high protein food, with seven grams of protein per quarter of a cup serving of dry oats. In Ireland, stirabout ( Irish: leite) [7] was formerly a staple food, made by stirring oatmeal into boiling water or milk to form a thin soup. It could be flavoured with cream, sugar, butter, salt, honey, seeds or fruit on top. [8] [9]To Freeze. Portion your desired amount of the cooked oats into your container of choice. Freeze for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Fresh Fruit. Sliced bananas, blueberries, or strawberries are classic; or try seasonal variations like pears, apples, cherries, or peaches.
I am from the UK and came across steel cut oats by watching the Motivationaldoc, Dr Alan Mandell. I am a diabetic and this looked good for reducing blood sugars.Samuel Johnson referred, disparagingly, to this in his dictionary definition for oats: "A grain, which in England is generally given to horses, but in Scotland supports the people." His biographer, James Boswell, noted that Lord Elibank was said by Sir Walter Scott to have retorted, "Yes, and where else will you see such horses and such men?" [17] An oft quoted remark from a 1755 dictionary which invariably gets the response “that’s why England has good horses, and Scotland - good people!". Whole grain oats are a rich source of many essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. For instance, it contains phosphorus, Manganese, Copper, Magnesium, Zinc, Folate, and also Iron. Staffordshire oatcakes are a local component of the full English breakfast. It is a plate-sized pancake, made with medium oatmeal and wheatmeal (flour), along with yeast. Once the mixture has risen, it is ladled onto a griddle or bakestone and dried through. Staffordshire oatcakes are commonly paired with bacon, sausages, mushrooms, kidney, and baked beans, among others. [23] A related oatcake is sometimes found in neighbouring Derbyshire.
Greetings from Sydney, Australia. I had never made steel cut oats as I was worried that they were complicated. I just make your steel oats and OMG, I’m savouring every mouthful. I’m glad I made a double batch so I’ll have plenty to enjoy. Thank you!!!Steel-cut oats shine in the texture and flavor departments. They are exceptionally creamy and delicious, especially if you toast them beforehand as instructed in my recipe below. Sweeteners. A tablespoon or two of honey or pure maple syrup can work wonders to convince oatmeal skeptics.
This is the Aberfeldy Porridge recipe which we think is the Scotland’s best. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Many people advise soaking or fermeting the oatsfirst. This is because every grain holds phytic acid in its outer layer. When we eat phytic acid, it binds with calcium, copper, iron magnesium and zinc in our bodies – so we are unable to absorb these minerals. Soaking oats in warm water with a spoonful of yoghurt or kefir for at least seven hours at room temperature allows the enzymes to break down and neutralise the phytic acid.You can put the ingredients in the saucepan the night before and leave it on the hob overnight. In the morning, cook the porridge for 5 minutes. It is creamy and delicious – and even better for you than unsoaked porridge. The general rule is 1 cup of oats to 1 tablespoon of yoghurt/kefir.

T hen, at long last, I was in a cute cafe where I spotted something called “steel cut oats” at the top of the menu. Feeling somewhat magnanimous (but mostly curious) I decided to give this steel cut oatmeal business a chance. in sowans, not strictly made from the meal but as a porridge-like dish made from the fermented inner husks of oats [21] [22] Both types of rolled oats may be eaten uncooked, as in muesli, or may be cooked with water or milk to make porridge. In some countries, rolled oats are eaten raw or toasted with milk and sugar, sometimes with raisins added, as in muesli. The term 'oatmeal' sometimes refers to a porridge made from the bran or fibrous husk as well as from the kernel or groat. [4] Rolled oats are often used as a key ingredient in granola, in which toasted oats are blended with sugar and/or nuts and raisins, and in granola bars. What makes Irish oats and regular oats different is ultimately the way they are processed. As mentioned earlier, Irish oats go through a steel cut treatment. Spices. Try a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg. Pumpkin pie spice is yummy too (see this Pumpkin Oatmeal to really spice ’em up).
