Cooking Hot Cereals to the Right Consistency

Hi, my name is Sheryl McGlochlin with crazysheryl.com and welcome to expertvillage.com. Today we are talking about hot cereals and we are actually making 4 kinds of hot cereal. The 4th one that I'm actually not going to make because it a duplicate exactly of one of the ones but this is rolled oats that I have that is dry in my hands but on this back burner is the 7 grain rolled mixed. I have mixed 3 cups of water and when I brought that to a boil with one teaspoon of salt then I went ahead and added to cups of rolled mix. So you would do the oats exactly the way you have done with the 7 grain rolled mixed. What I really want to focus on right now is looking for the consistency when you know the cereal is done. It will have pretty much all the water absorb and it would have just really lovely texture. You don't see much of the water, it is not very runny, and you can just see it with a spoon. In the front burner here what we have is the cracked wheat; this comes straight from whole wheat. It is has been cracked and it is so delicious. It actually cost less then a dollar a pound. I'm going to show you a dollar a pound per dry mix. I'm going to show you how that works. The 3rd one we have a little red ring right now and this is the brown rice that we are cooking. We are just going to let that one cook for a little bit more. That is 3 out of the 4 of the cereals of the hot cereal mix that we are making.
