How does McCann's Quick & Easy Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal differ from this?

you don't see the whole grain that you see in the regular. It is more refined. We don't care for the quick and easy.

Steel cut (Irish) oats are healthier as they are not overprocessed and take longer to digest than rolled oats.

No difference than any of their other products. Very creamy & quick & easy to use. I like it...

Bill, looks like a lot of people have already given the same answer as mine. I use a tin can (originally containing Irish steel cut rolled oatmeal) and cut a slit in the top. I just slip the used blades into the can and dispose of the entire can when full. I've been using the same can for a couple of years and it still isn't close to being full.

Similar is a wide word, and in this case it is the concentration of protein between an isolate and merely concentrated whey (the drier product when water is removed). You're right, it doesn't describe WHAT variant of whey they use. I'll say this, "It better be isolate due to the cost!" My grandson says it's pretty good, but a less expensive (non oat) product was even tastier. Wait - - - it does say: "No artificial flavors or sweeteners. Made with whole grain oats. Packed with premium whey protein isolates." The oats contribute fiber. I guess the answer is 'Yes.' Drink up!

The book that came with the pressure cooker includes recipes for rice and wild rice but no other grains. It makes no mention of steel cut oats or similar grains. I found information on the Internet that recommended against using a pressure cooker for steel cut oats. It might be because they foam during cooking. The booklet that came with the pressure cooker recommends the cookbook Larna Sass' Complete Vegetarian Kitchen for more information on cooking grains in the pressure cooker.

Yes, this is the perfect size. In fact, the recipe I have makes 3 servings and I've found that it cooks steel cut oats perfectly, and they re-heat great with a little extra milk. Great time-saver for being able to have breakfast before work! The recipe can be found in "Vegan Slow Cooking For Two - or - Just For You" by Kathy Hester. She also has a blog online where a bunch of recipes are posted. (Pear Rose Cardamom Oatmeal) I substituted an apple for the pear and skipped the rosewater, but love the cardamom!

I really dont know. I used them in my morning steel cut oatmeal. You might try to ask the manufacture "Sun Maid" . I enjoyed them.

I'm not sure...I tried the oatmeal one for my little guy because he is allergic to grass. It definitely helps him,me specially in the summer months.

For smaller amounts (0.5 Zoji cup) of steel-cut oats, I use 3 parts water to 1 part oats, soak overnight, and cook on the "white rice" setting. It comes out perfectly. Using the "porridge" setting yields very watery oatmeal, even when soaked overnight.Perhaps it's the larger amounts, like 1-2 Zoji cups, that need to be set on "porridge" to avoid boil-overs.

not the Steel Cut version. In fact I cook mine about 30 min. I make enough for the week and then just reheat a portion. Try the GF rolled oats or quick cooking for the uncook in yogurt idea. For yogurt I prefer some of the GF Granola.

Have any of you tried making steel cut oats with milk rather than with water? How did that work?

I have this machine and absolutely love it. I have never noticed anything about the power cord, but I move the machine every time I'm done with it (nearly every day) so I may be plugging it in more firmly each time I move it. I make steel cut oats in this machine almost every night and set the timer so they are ready the next morning. NEVER has oatmeal been this good. I highly recommend the machine.

Hi Janet - I haven't used it like oatmeal but I cook it and use in salads. I simmer it in salted water 40-45 minutes, drain and rinse and its ready to go. This is *not* the semi-pearled variety most commonly seen in the US. The pearling process wears off some of the nutritious bran layer so it cooks a little faster. This wheat is not pearled, so it retains all its nutrition. A bit of extra cooking time seems a small price to pay for whole, nutritious, not to mention yummy, grain. Try searching on "einkorn porridge". I found a recipe that said to pulse the grains in a blender prior to cooking. This cuts the cooking time in half and may be what you're looking for.

Taste is a bit more nutty than rolled oats. However, nutritionally, steel cut oats are a whole grain where as the quick oats are more processed and not the complete whole grain oat. Quick oats are alright, but we prefer the whole grain steel cut oats as they provide more fiber and nutrition in our diets.

I am almost positive that oats and barley are different but you can easily go to Bob's Red Mill website and ask them (they have a link) and the question will be answered for sure!

As far as I can tell they are similar, except the whole oat powder has less of the oat removed prior to processing. This product also appears to be slightly more coarse than oat flour, so it would likely not be suitable as a wheat flour replacement.
