Tips for making oatmeal

The amount to cook depends on the number of people. For two of us, two medium bowls of water are enough.

At present, most of the oatmeal sold on the market is instant, which is very convenient and quick to eat. However, it undergoes a high-temperature ripening process during processing, so the vitamin content of the oatmeal is reduced.

Instant oatmeal can be divided into two types according to the main raw materials: original oatmeal and mixed oatmeal. The former does not have a strong wheat or fruity aroma, but only emits a light natural wheat aroma. When buying, please be careful that original oatmeal with a strong flavor is likely to have flavor additives added. In addition, original oatmeal does not contain white sugar and salt, retains most of the nutrients in the original wheat, is particularly beneficial to the body, and is more suitable for middle-aged and elderly people, diabetics, and people with high blood sugar and blood lipids.

Mixed oatmeal usually contains milk powder, bean powder, walnuts and almonds. Milk powder and bean powder effectively supplement the protein content of pure oatmeal, and the oil contained in walnuts and almonds will greatly increase energy intake, but their common disadvantage is that white sugar is added, which increases the calorie supply. This type is more suitable for children and teenagers who have a higher energy demand.

A very important nutrient in oatmeal is soluble dietary fiber, which is mainly found in oat bran and will be lost to varying degrees during processing. When choosing oatmeal, pay attention to the total energy, carbohydrates, soluble dietary fiber and protein content of each small package or 100 grams. The total energy should not exceed 350 kcal, the carbohydrate content should not be higher than 60%, the soluble dietary fiber should not be less than 8 grams, and the protein content should be around 10%. Such oatmeal has less nutritional loss and is more nutritionally balanced.

A key to eating oatmeal is to avoid cooking it at high temperatures for a long time to prevent the vitamins from being destroyed. The longer the oatmeal is cooked, the greater the nutritional loss.

The correct way to eat oatmeal: Raw oatmeal needs to be cooked for 20 to 30 minutes; cooked oatmeal needs 5 minutes; cooked oatmeal and milk only need 3 minutes to cook together, and it is best to stir once in the middle.
