Comment on Oats of Steel: A Love Affair by Head Chef

It might work, Dawn, and I’d love to hear how it goes! A rice cooker cooks at a higher temp than a slow cooker, I think, and turns off automatically. The package directions for steel cut oats say to bring the water to a boil before adding oats and then reducing to a simmer. I’m guessing it may depend on if your slow cooker has a high enough setting to get that initial boil and then turning down to lower heat and allowing the oats to simmer for a while.

Do you think I could make them in my slow cooker? Would my low setting be equivalent to your porridge setting?

Oh, that sounds GOOD! (perfect for this coming weekend I think)

my big “rule” these days is whenever I want to snack, I first stop to ask myself if I’m actually hungry, or is this just habit or association.

So glad to see you back!! I love your rules, I think that because for the most part they are about what you will do rather than what you won’t do. I think my favorite is “get more sleep.”

Best French onion dip I’ve ever tasted. Love the fact that it contains no additives.

did you know that blanched steel cut oats can substitute for bulgar to make a gluten-free tabouli? (making sure you have gluten-free oats, of course)

“bulk or natural foods section at Hannaford”

No wonder, I’m mostly familiar with the “Cold Beer” aisle.
