I really like raisins in my oatmeal, but I much prefer when they’ve been cooked right in with the oatmeal itself as opposed to just put on top. They turn out much plumper and juicier, and give the whole batch more flavor. I guess if I let them sit in my oatmeal with some milk long enough they’d plump up, but then my oatmeal would be cold. And what is the fun of cold oatmeal? Not much that I can see, even if the raisins are plump and juicy.
Have you ever thought of going the whole long distance with it and drying the grapes out with the oats? π Actually that might be kind of gross and smelly.
@natalie@FourJedis Hahaha – you crack me up! No, I hadn’t (mainly because I’m extraordinarily lazy, especially when it comes to food, and would never take the time to do that), but now that you pointed out how smelly and gross it could be I think I’ll pass. π
@_ScooterMarie@fourjedis I like the “extraordinarily lazy.” π ;D
@natalie@FourJedis@fourjedis Yep, nothin’ but the truth around here, ha! π
