Cereals that can be cooked without boiling: effective tips

In the current situation in our country, we need to be prepared for anything. And even the fact that you may not be able to use the stove and cook a full meal. That's why OBOZREVATEL's editorial team will tell you about cereals that can be cooked even without boiling.

Tips for cooking cereals without boiling are published on the _pohydayka_ Instagram page.

Buckwheat

You can simply pour water over these groats. Not boiling water, but clean water at room temperature in a ratio of 1:2.

It should be infused in water for about 5 hours, or preferably 8-10. After that, you can eat it.

The secret is that brown buckwheat is already cooked – the package says that it is roasted and dried. Therefore, plain water will be enough to make the cereal swell.

Yachka

You can cover it with boiling water in a ratio of 1:2 and let it steep for at least 2 hours.

The cooking time will depend on the size of the split barley.

Couscous

Just pour boiling water over it and cover it with a plate for 15 minutes. The water should be slightly more than the cereal.

Pearl barley

It can also be covered with water, and it does not have to be very hot. Pour the cereal in a 1:3 ratio and let it brew for 24 hours.

Oatmeal

Even if the package says that the oatmeal needs to be cooked, there is an alternative way to prepare it. You can pour boiling water over it and wait 15-20 minutes.
