That said, it’s also worth considering cooking your oats in other types of liquids.Tea, broth or stock, coffee — even something like carrot juice — all add new flavorful directions.Swapping out your liquid will make your oats less of a neutral base for toppings if you plan to stash away leftovers (see below), and is still a fun way to experiment.. For every one part oats, you’ll need four parts liquid for steel-cut oats, or two parts liquid for rolled oats.
Once you’ve added your liquid to the saucepan and it’s come to a boil, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and partially cover the pan.Cook steel-cut oats for 15 to 20 minutes, until they’re tender and as thickened as you like, stirring occasionally; rolled oats will cook in five to seven minutes.
Remember that you can always add more liquid to thin your oats, or cook them longer if you’d like them thicker.. Matt Taylor-Gross / Food styling by Amelia Rampe.
