This is my favorite way to eat oatmeal. If you think steel cut oats has a good texture it doesn't; be prepared to fall in love. I can't eat oatmeal any other way now. It tastes too bland without the proper preparation.
Serves 4.
1 cup oats, rolled or cracked
1 cup warm water filtered plus 2 tablespoons whey, yoghurt, kefir, or buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon celtic sea salt
1 cup filtered water
1 tablespoon flax seeds (optional)
Mix oats with warm water mixture, cover and leave in a warm place for at least 7 hours and as long as 24 hours. (I prepare it before I go to bed)
Bring additional 1 cup water to a boil with sea salt. Add soaked oats, reduce heat, cover and simmer. About 5 minutes or less. Remove from heat. Stir in flax seeds.
Serve with plenty of butter or cream. Sweeten with maple syrup or honey.
VARIATIONS: My sister Heather adds apples and spices to the boiling water. Yum!
