Breakfast cereal is a traditional breakfast food made from processed grains. Among them, the block oatmeal is a very nutritious and healthy oatmeal. There are small cubes inside, which can be chewed directly or eaten with yogurt.
Cube oatmeal contains 97% whole-grain golden wheat (the so-called golden wheat retains the endosperm, germ, and bran of the grain), and the taste is relatively rough, but it is low-fat and high-fiber, and it is still very healthy.
There are many ways to eat cubed oatmeal. Most people use yogurt and add some fruit. You can also use milk to soak directly, but it is not recommended to soak for too long, as it will lose the taste.
Or you can use ice cream with cereal, sprinkle over ice cream in boxes or cups, and mix with cereal. Of course, if you are too lazy to prepare other ingredients, you can eat it directly.
Cubed oatmeal is actually a type of cooked oatmeal,which is also called instant oatmeal, it refers to the peeled wheat grains, which are completed by different curing methods.
Cooked oatmeal is an instant food that can be eaten directly, or can be eaten after mixing with hot water or hot milk, soy milk, coconut milk, or fruit juice. During the processing of oatmeal, amino acids, vitamins and minerals can be added to make it more nutritious.
The raw oatmeal is different from cooked oatmeal . Raw oatmeal is made after the grains are cleaned, hulled, peeled, softened, rolled into flakes, cooled and dehumidified.
The raw oatmeal can be mixed with the main grains and boiled into oatmeal rice. In fruit porridge and eight-treasure porridge, raw oatmeal is also provided. The processing of raw oatmeal refers to the use of rolling technology, which can press a grain of wheat into one piece. The method can improve the cooking quality and edible quality of wheat and improve its digestibility.
