Flahavan's Irish Steel Cut Oatmeal Pack of 2

This product is very tasteful and has the benefits of oatmeal

That's a bold statement, and I make it as one who loves oatmeal. It's a great breakfast, but if you are checking out steel-cut varieties like Flahavan, you probably already disdain the quick cooking, overly processed, highly sugared brands. If that is your jam, I am not judging, but for me, real oatmeal is the least processed.These take longer to prepare, either soaking overnight to shorten cooking time in the morning or cooking directly from the container. Of the steel-cut, slower cooking varieties, Flahavan's is worth the time. Cook it longer and it becomes creamier, while shorten the time and it's chewier but still so smooth on the tongue. You could eat it all by itself to have a satisfying, full-mouth feel. It is a soothing comfort food. While all brands of steel-cut oatmeal provide a base in which to mix in butter, milk and various flavors, Flahavan's tastes good just by itself. When it comes to oatmeal, bland is beautiful but Flahavan's stands out with a nutty but not intrusive taste.

As advertised. Arrived quickly and well packaged.

These steel cut oats are incredible. Pricey but they are the best. The recipe for one cup of oats written on the can is a good one.I suggest adding a little under 1/2 teaspoon of Coarse La Baliene Sea Salt mixed to the dry oats before adding the quart of cold water.That really brings out the flavor of these amazing steel cut oats.Highly recommended.

Anthony's Organic Oats just as good for less money. I discovered that My local market sells this cereal for. $8.00.

One of the better tasting/texture Steel Cut Oats!

It’s very good oatmeal, creamy and dense which I like. A little pricey.

All the 5 star reviews steered me right! The relatively long cooking time (40 minutes), and frequent stirring toward the last part of cooking were very much worth it. It IS different (and better to me) in taste and texture to American steel cut oats. The oats are creamy on the outside, but have an mild “pop” (by feel, not sound) in the center when chewed. Since I was out of honey, a little dark Grandma’s Molasses was substituted, and was delicious. Add your choice of fruit, and what a great breakfast (or whatever). A four portions serving really does go that far, and leftovers can be refrigerated, then mixed with a little water and heated when time for the next meal. These are expensive compared to domestic steel cut oats, but in the scheme of things to me, are well worth it.
