Re: [CnD] nuwave oven oatmeal

2017-03-04 Thread Eileen Scrivani via Cookinginthedark
Hi Deb,

Don’t know why I never thought of putting cut up apples & walnuts in oatmeal. I 
love that combination. Usually I add in a little bit of raisins and cinnamon to 
the oats. And, even the old-fashioned type oats, not the instant, I do in the 
microwave.

I’ve never added salt because I’m a diabetic I’m better off not adding any 
extra sodium.  For that matter, I have to watch the amount of raisins/apples 
because the oatmeal on its own has a good amount of carbs that I have to watch 
as well.

Thanks for the idea for apples and walnuts.

Eileen

I used to hate oatmeal because it had salt and milk in it--esp. the salt.  I 
figured out one day that I like it with walnuts and apples--yum, yum!!  
Personal preference of course.

I've heard about the salt in coffee.  Also coffee in chili--only a little, but 
I've never tried either.

I never tried soaking steel cut oats and when I get raisins later this month 
I'll try that in the nuwave oven and see if it makes a different kind of 
oatmeal.  I haven't tried salt in oatmeal yet either.

One thing I heard I thought curious, Ethiopians put a little salt in coffee 
when they make it to remove bitterness.

Thanks for the info about the oatmeal.  Soon my husband will have about a month 
where he will only be able to eat soft foods--like maybe oatmeal.  So this may 
help to know.

I soak my steel cut oats the night before. Then I follow your cooking method.
I think they come out softer.
I mostly soak grains since it releases more neutrition.

Re: [CnD] aroma rice steamer slow cooker

2017-03-04 Thread Eileen Scrivani via Cookinginthedark
Hi Jude,

For your rice/slow cooker’s basket where the holes are too large, perhaps you 
could line the basket with a paper coffee filter to prevent rice grains from 
falling through?  Rather than the cone shape coffee filters, you might do 
better with the flat bottom basket shaped filters that may lay flatter in a 
rounded basket.  Or, I have a small coffee percolator that only uses a flat 
sheet that lays in to bottom of the percolator basket these might serve your 
purpose.

Subject: [CnD] aroma rice steamer slow cooker

I have one of these and found when I got it home the holes in the basket
are too large to prevent rice falling into the water if rice is to be
steamed.  I think this will work but am not entirely sure.  I put a clean
cloth handkerchief in the bottom of the basket and figure to put the rice
on top of the handkerchief when steaming.  Those holes are too small to
allow any rice to fall into the water.
I have cabbage so could just line the bottom of the basket with cabbage
leaves and put the rice on the leaves and then steam as another
possibility.
Since I'm in an intermediate care retirement program most of what I do is
warm prepared meals up but sometimes I do a little of my own cooking.  The
stove has a touch screen panel for the oven and four knobs for the burners
and it's a gas stove.  It would have been better to have five knobs but I
wasn't around when the stove was bought and it wasn't anticipated I would
be living with the stove either.

[CnD] Introduction.

2017-03-04 Thread Eileen Scrivani via Cookinginthedark
Hello All,

I recently subscribed to this list. I’m a decent cook, and fair reasonably well 
in the kitchen.  I’ve been totally blind for quite some time. I signed up for 
this group hoping to find some recipies & techniques for adapting recipies for 
1 person.  My husband recently passed away and I don’t want to prepare food 
that will leave me with a weeks worth of all the same dinners.  Most of the 
dishes I am used to making would be enough for 2 people for 2-3 nights.

Looking forward to reading more posts from the list.

Eileen
