Rolled oats

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to navigationJump to search

For the Lemon Jelly song, see Rolled/Oats.

A tablespoon of rolled oats

Rolled oats are traditionally oat groats that have been dehusked and steamed, before being rolled into flat flakes under heavy rollers and stabilized by being lightly toasted.

Rolled oats that are sold as porridge oats usually have had the tough bran removed. They have often, but not always, been lightly baked or pressure-cooked or "processed" in some fashion. Thick-rolled oats are large whole flakes, and thin-rolled oats are smaller, fragmented flakes. Oat flakes that are simply rolled whole oats without further processing can be cooked into a porridge and eaten as "old-fashioned" oats, but more highly fragmented and processed rolled oats absorb water much more easily and therefore cook faster into a porridge, so they are sometimes called "quick" or "instant" oats. Rolled oats are most often the main ingredient in granola and muesli.

Rolled oats can be further processed into coarse powder, which, when cooked, becomes a thick broth. Finer oatmeal powder is often used as baby food.

Various leavened breads
Main ingredients	Flour, water
Cookbook: Bread    Media: Bread

Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour and water, usually by baking. Throughout recorded history it has been a prominent food in large parts of the world and is one of the oldest man-made foods, having been of significant importance since the dawn of agriculture.

Bread may be leavened by processes such as reliance on naturally occurring sourdough microbes, chemicals, industrially produced yeast, or high-pressure aeration. Commercial bread commonly contains additives to improve flavor, texture, color, shelf life, nutrition, and ease of manufacturing.

Bread plays essential roles in religious rituals and secular culture.

Cherry

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the fruit. For other uses, see Cherry (disambiguation).

For the species called "wild cherry" in the British Isles, see Prunus avium. For other uses, see Wild cherry.

"Cherry tree" redirects here. For other uses of "Cherry tree" or "Cherrytree", see Cherry tree (disambiguation).

Prunus avium, sweet cherry, also called wild cherry

Prunus cerasus

A cherry is the fruit of many plants of the genus Prunus, and is a fleshy drupe (stone fruit).

The cherry fruits of commerce usually are obtained from cultivars of a limited number of species such as the sweet cherry (Prunus avium) and the sour cherry (Prunus cerasus). The name 'cherry' also refers to the cherry tree and its wood, and is sometimes applied to almonds and visually similar flowering trees in the genus Prunus, as in "ornamental cherry" or "cherry blossom". Wild cherry may refer to any of the cherry species growing outside cultivation, although Prunus avium is often referred to specifically by the name "wild cherry" in the British Isles.

Welcome to today's blog post.  

I am herewith featuring a Recipe from Bermuda's Best Recipes CookBook.  The Recipe came from the Fourteenth Edition (May 1991) the chapter of "Small Cakes - Nut And Date Squares, etc.   The recipe is by Mrs. G.C. Hutchings. 

The recipe called for using a wooden spoon, which was quite a challenge in using as I had not used mixing with a wooden spoon in a number of years.  However, it was good arm exercise.  All in all I enjoyed working with the wooden spoon and making the cookies.   The recipe is very good recipe and can be used in many variations to work with.  For example adding fruit, vegetables, raisins, nuts etc.  However, this time I decided to stick straight to the recipe and keep it plain.   I hope you will enjoy this blog post.  The recipe is located just under these photos as you scroll down the blog post.

Vegetables in a market in the Philippines

Vegetables are parts of plants that are consumed by humans as food as part of a meal. The original meaning is still commonly used and is applied to plants collectively to refer to all edible plant matter, including the flowers, fruits, stems, leaves, roots, and seeds. The alternate definition of the term vegetable is applied somewhat arbitrarily, often by culinary and cultural tradition. It may exclude foods derived from some plants that are fruits, nuts, and cereal grains, but include fruits from others such as tomatoes and courgettes and seeds such as pulses.

Originally, vegetables were collected from the wild by hunter-gatherers and entered cultivation in several parts of the world, probably during the period 10,000 BC to 7,000 BC, when a new agricultural way of life developed. At first, plants which grew locally would have been cultivated, but as time went on, trade brought exotic crops from elsewhere to add to domestic types. Nowadays, most vegetables are grown all over the world as climate permits, and crops may be cultivated in protected environments in less suitable locations. China is the largest producer of vegetables and global trade in agricultural products allows consumers to purchase vegetables grown in faraway countries. The scale of production varies from subsistence farmers supplying the needs of their family for food, to agribusinesses with vast acreages of single-product crops. Depending on the type of vegetable concerned, harvesting the crop is followed by grading, storing, processing, and marketing.

Vegetables can be eaten either raw or cooked and play an important role in human nutrition, being mostly low in fat and carbohydrates, but high in vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber. Many nutritionists encourage people to consume plenty of fruit and vegetables, five or more portions a day often being recommended.
