soo… searched, watched youtubes, but I’m kinda stumped. how do I cook these? also, do I pre-wash them?

everything is either steel-cut or rolled, I ain’t got none of those, just normal, whole-grain oats. I don’t own nor need a rice cooker, just want the the normal, on-the-stove type of deal.

first run was cup of oats, three cups of water, bring to boil, turn off, leave for an coupla hours. result - it’s cooked but there’s extra water, so I’m guessing next try is two cups water instead, and maybe a shorter rest period.

I’d like to pre-cook an amount and then use it for a couple of days. I’d also prefer to not season it, as I can then use it with both salty and fruity dishes.

    The ratio is probably similar to steel cut oats, but you might need a longer cooking time. A couple of hours without heating is probably excessive and only increases the chance of food poisoning.

    Try a 40 min simmer with the lid on.
