Guest guest Posted October 28, 2002 Report Share Posted October 28, 2002 It's going to thicken and sort of simmer it (the cream) and will not result in a sauteed experience. Why not use coconut oil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not use coconut oil? Ha! Thank you, I can't even believe I forgot I have a whole can of coconut oil sitting on top of my fridge. I've gotten so used to eating it straight for my immune system I forgot about cooking with it! Lol... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 I used to just warm my soaked oatmeal and then mix it with cold cream and a little maple syrup. It was quite heavenly with that thick, sweet cream. But oatmeal makes me nauseous now that i'm pregnant. Elaine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 It probably won't fry but it will simmer. I'll bet it would be delicious. My husband would cook his scrambled eggs in coconut milk. He made it for me a couple of times and it was really good!

I usually add a little bit of water to the oatmeal when I reheat it, and when it starts to get warm I add some whole milk and heat it more gently, stirring a bit to make sure it doesn't stick.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 Well, I was hoping to have a good report on the " wonderful " taste of my cream-cooked oatmeal, only to discover as I was about to cook it that I left my half gallon of oatmeal at my house. That was breakfast and lunch for the week! Guess I'll be drinking the cream (it tastes kind of neat anyway) and-- gasp-- eating a couple meals at the dining hall. *sigh* Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 Whenever I have extra cream, I stir a little yogurt into it and let it sour. It makes great sour cream!

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 On the counter. the time it takes varies. Anywhere from a day to a couple of days but my yogurt always takes much longer than what other people post. I know it is done when it is thick and bubly.
