I always assumed they were, but read an article which confused me. Are steel cut whole grain? Can you use lemon as the acid medium? We don't use a whole ton of dairy. Are rolled oats whole grain?

Are steel cut whole grain?

Can you use lemon as the acid medium? We don’t use a whole ton of dairy.

The water has to be warm filtered water, but not boiling, then added together with a acid medium as described in the post if you want to incorporate the soaking.

Is this okay from a health standpoint, since the oats are already "cooked" by being steamed when hulled? Thanks.

I was actually stumped about eating oats because on Weston Price, they said compared to other grains, oats is the hardest, or almost impossible to completely remove all the phytic acid. And rolled oats, due to high temperature when processing, is definitely not as nutritious as unprocessed oats. But now that I see your recipe, I realized no matter how try we try to strive for a "perfect" diet, we will never get there because it doesn't quite exist. There are always two ends to a stick. But knowing that you are trying the best you can, that is doing yourself big enough of a favor. All in all, thank you so much for sharing your healthy recipes with the rest of us. I look forward to have you share even more of your experiments with us in the kitchen. Thanks!

I was wondering if a dollup of plain low fat yogurt could be sub'd for the kefir? (I have been using a splash of Apple Cider Vinegar with good results for a while.) I made this recipe this morning with unsoaked oats and it was SO yummy I am going to make it with soaked oats and see out it turns out. Thought you might be interested in the recipe and site for ideas. http://www.katheats.com/kaths-tribute-to-oatmeal/ Blessings! Kristina Hi,

Usually when I eat oatmeal my blood sugar drops so low later in the morning. I am waiting to see if that is going to happen. I feel so full and satisfied. It tasted kinda wheaty though. The taste grew on me as I ate it. This weekend I'll try it on DH and see what he thinks. I really enjoyed this. Usually when I eat oatmeal my blood sugar drops so low later in the morning.

Whey is the by-product of culturing milk at room temperature. Learn how to make whey: http://www.passionatehomemaking.com/2008/03/make-it-yourself-part-3-cultured-dairy-products.html. You can use yogurt whey as well, which is the liquid clear substance that floats to the top of your yogurt. Other options for soaking include apple cider vinegar, kefir, and buttermilk.
