Fans of commercial mixed-grain cereals will love this homemade hot porridge because the whole grains make an especially full-flavoured mix. Serve hot with milk or soy milk, and maple syrup, honey or sugar, if desired.

Ingredients

• 

3/4 cup (175 mL) wehani or brown rice

• 

1-2/3 cup (400 mL) steel-cut oats

• 

3/4 cup (175 mL) roasted buckwheat (kasha)

• 

1/2 cup (125 mL) rye flakes or large oats

• 

1/3 cup (75 mL) wheat germ

Preparation

In blender or spice or coffee grinder, pulse wehani rice until fine with a few larger pieces; combine with oats, buckwheat, rye flakes and wheat germ.

Makes 4 cups (1 L) or 12 to 16 servings.

To serve: In saucepan, bring 2-1/2 cups (625 mL) water and pinch salt to boil over medium-high heat; sir in 1 cup (250 mL) Homemade Whole Grain Porridge mixture. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, until grains are tender-firm, 10 to 12 minutes.

Makes 2 cups (500 mL) or 3 to 4 servings.
