Hello hacker puppets radio, this is Alpha 32 coming to you from St. Louis, Missouri.
|
||
|
|
That's right, I've moved.
|
||
|
|
That's the reason I haven't submitted a show in a while.
|
||
|
|
Today I want to talk to you about oatmeal.
|
||
|
|
Yeah, we're going to make this series guys.
|
||
|
|
We're going to have an oatmeal series.
|
||
|
|
Anyway, I am doing...
|
||
|
|
Well, today I cooked steel cut oats, also known as pinhead oats to you folks across the pond.
|
||
|
|
Here in America that sounds like you're kind of insulting the oats though.
|
||
|
|
Calling them a pinhead oat.
|
||
|
|
I don't know what those poor little oats ever did to you Dave Morris, but...
|
||
|
|
Anyway, so I cooked oats.
|
||
|
|
I cooked them on a stovetop, unlike Mr. Colt down there in Louisiana.
|
||
|
|
The way I do it, get a little pot.
|
||
|
|
Boil two cups of water with a bit of sugar, not sugar, salt.
|
||
|
|
A bit of salt.
|
||
|
|
Bring it to a boil.
|
||
|
|
Turn your heat down to medium, stir in the oats.
|
||
|
|
When I stir in the oats, I added cinnamon, all spice and nutmeg.
|
||
|
|
A little bit of flavor, I don't want plain oats.
|
||
|
|
It wouldn't taste very good.
|
||
|
|
I'll put that in there, stir them up a bit.
|
||
|
|
I added two thirds of a cup.
|
||
|
|
I don't know what that is in grams.
|
||
|
|
Sorry guys, that's what Google's for.
|
||
|
|
Yeah, two thirds of a cup of oats.
|
||
|
|
Stir them in.
|
||
|
|
It says stir occasionally, but...
|
||
|
|
I keep stirring them, stirring, stirring, stirring, because I want them to absorb as much water as that can.
|
||
|
|
After that, after stirring in the oats, I added...
|
||
|
|
I'd guess maybe an eighth of a cup, maybe a quarter cup, I don't know, of sugar.
|
||
|
|
Sugar makes everything taste better, right?
|
||
|
|
At least for Americans.
|
||
|
|
I used a Demerara sugar, it's kind of halfway between regular sugar and brown sugar.
|
||
|
|
I guess it's got a little bit of molasses in it.
|
||
|
|
Cook that about five or six minutes, stirring, stirring, stirring.
|
||
|
|
I take it off the heat, and add...
|
||
|
|
I guess about a half cup of raisins.
|
||
|
|
I don't want to add them while the oats are cooking, because they'll puff up and become grapes again.
|
||
|
|
Don't that, and it was less than awesome.
|
||
|
|
So, there's that.
|
||
|
|
Anyway, it turned out awesome.
|
||
|
|
I'm eating it right now.
|
||
|
|
Mmmmm.
|
||
|
|
Hoody goodness.
|
||
|
|
So anyhow, yeah.
|
||
|
|
I think if we can keep this cooking series going, that would be pretty awesome.
|
||
|
|
I will definitely submit a show on making marinara, lasagna, anything like that.
|
||
|
|
Mr. Morris, I'd like to hear some Scottish food recipes.
|
||
|
|
I think that would be really interesting.
|
||
|
|
Maybe we can get folks to do some local things from wherever they're at.
|
||
|
|
That would be pretty neat to have on HPR.
|
||
|
|
So, I think that's about all I've got.
|
||
|
|
I'm going to keep eating my oatmeal, and I will talk to you guys again soon.
|
||
|
|
And don't forget to submit a show.
|
||
|
|
Seriously, I might do it now.
|
||
|
|
There are apps for your phone that you can record a show with.
|
||
|
|
So, if you don't want HPR to die, do it now.
|
||
|
|
Please.
|
||
|
|
Okay, guys.
|
||
|
|
Laters.
