Tag: Identifying oats

According to the Food Network, rolled oats are the most common type of oats found worldwide. So, how do you know rolled oats and distinguish them from other varieties like steel-cut or instant that look and cook very differently?

Steel-cut oats, also known as Irish or pinhead oats, are the least processed variety after whole groats. For those wondering, "how do I know if my oats are steel-cut?", the answer lies in their unique appearance and the cooking process, which differ significantly from the more common rolled or instant versions.
