How to Eat Oatmeal in the Summer: No-Bake Oatmeal Cookies
When it gets too hot to eat oatmeal in July, I eat it cold—in cookie form. These cookies are as close to sexy as oatmeal gets—butter, peanut butter, chocolate, and no need to turn on the oven. For oatmeal haters, they're a good way to ease into the joys of this gluten-free grain.OIAJ: Oatmeal in a (Peanut Butter) Jar
The peanut butter breakfast phenomenon that's been heating up this year is called "Oats In a Jar." OIAJ aficionados essentially use almost empty jars of peanut butter as a vessel for eating their hot oatmeal, thereby accomplishing a few tasks at once.Trader Joe's Frozen Steelcut Oatmeal Might Change Your Life
You have to respect Trader Joe's for addressing such an important issue: that steelcut oatmeal takes forever to cook. Sometimes up to 45 minutes, it's just too long to justify outside of a weekend breakfast luxury. But wait. Trader Joe's is now selling frozen steelcut oatmeal—three words you never thought you'd hear together—and it's ready in less than three minutes. Which got us thinking, what if we made a big pot of steelcut oatmeal and started freezing it in an ice cube tray?Oatmeal Brûlée from the Sweetgreen Truck in Washington, D.C.
"Finally, a food truck selling oatmeal—and it's maybe the best you've ever had." [Photographs: Erin Zimmer] Oatmeal enthusiasts are used to having a spoon, bowl, and if you're really hardcore, a spurtle on-hand, but a blowtorch? Oatmeal brûlée has to be the most exciting thing happening in the oatmeal world today. "It took a blizzard to figure it out," said Bona Park, who drives Sweetgreen's Sweetflow Mobile, the Washington D.C. salad and frozen yogurt chain's bright yellow truck. While trapped indoors during the city's recent Snowpocalypse, she started channeling her inner pyro with oatmeal. Technically it's "quotmeal," a mix of oats and red and white quinoa, which soaks overnight, then goes into a rice cooker for a half-hour the next...Chef Nate Appleman's Secret to Skinny-Making Oatmeal
If you watched the recent episode of Nightline where chefs talked about weight loss, you may have wondered what svelte chef Nate Appleman of A16 in San Francisco was putting into his oatmeal. "I haven't had a doughnut in two and a half years," he said while stirring up the bowl. That was a mix of banana, plain yogurt and almond butter, he tells us in an e-mail. What kind of oats? Steel-cut at the restaurant, instant at home....2010 Trend Prediction: Fancy Oatmeal
©iStockphoto.com/ burwellphotography I was pretty giddy to read the Guardian declare that "we're currently in the midst of a porridge renaissance...everyone from McDonald's to Michelin-starred restaurants serving it." If 2010 is the year of porridge (or oatmeal, breakfast goop, whatever you want to call it) then shoot, let's get this party started. Thanks to Robyn, for Christmas I got the soon-to-be-most-vogue accessory: a spurtle. Yes, it's basically just a wooden wand (fine, a stick) but it's the official stirring device, particularly in the UK. At the end of the Guardian piece, the writer described her idea of a perfect bowl: Place a quarter of a cup of unsoaked McCann's steel cut oats in a pan with one cup of...Video: The Oatmeal Song with Mike Birbiglia and Mates of State
Sadly this video does not include imagery of oatmeal, just a pretty dark stage. Well it's about bloody time someone dedicated a song to oatmeal! Comedian Mike Birbiglia teamed up with the band Mates of State at the New York Comedy Festival earlier this month to croon over the beloved hot breakfast mush. "It's sticky and it's wet and you stick it in a bowl and you stick it in your body and it makes you whole." Such truth right there. The chorus is also very moving. It says so much about oatmeal. And clarifies that this is a song. The video, after the jump....Blogwatch: Cinnamon Bun Oatmeal
[Photograph: Thought 4 Food] How do you capture the mall food court's Cinnabon in a bowl? Like this. Thought 4 Food's cinnamon bun oatmeal is a very beautiful thing. Related Cinnabon-Esque Cinnamon Rolls Bacon Cinnamon Rolls Oatmeal Brûlée...Video: Alton Brown Makes Oatmeal in a Coffee Pot
Alton Brown, in his typical MacGyver-of-the-food-world ways, hatches this idea for emergency oatmeal. All you need: a coffee pot, two pouches of instant oatmeal, a mini honey and jam packet, an herbal tea bag, a wee bit of salt, and water (how much depends on your gloopy consistency preference). The man becomes a savior to oatmeal eaters in motels everywhere. The video, after the jump....Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
