big-will 7 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Porridge. I used to love it when I was younger and hadn't had it for a long time. But I have recently rediscovered it after finding some in a supermarket and getting really into it again. It's going to be fab when it's winter and cold and I have my porridge in the morning. Any other porridge fans out there? Link to post Share on other sites

sava 0 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Porridge is good pre ski food lots of energy and tastes pretty good with honey or syrup Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Yep, good simple stuff, especially with a little cold milk poured on before each spoonful. This gives a good sensation in the mouth and also enhances the flavour. I like mine with that soft damp brown sugar. There is a Scottish guy at work and he has given me a few excellent tips and quality porridge. Scotland has brought an excellent natural meal to the breakfast table (a landscape littered with 'food' from gaudy cardboard boxes. No thanks). Home made natural museli is also excellent, but that is a different topic. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 My son was weaned on porridge. I ate his leftovers, hot or cold, and loved it all. Link to post Share on other sites
nzlegend 1 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Costco has bulk boxes of plain rolled oats...which reminds me I need to stock up for winter. Last year a friend gave me a large bottle of maple syrup, that went well with the porridge. I also like to chuck in raisins while cooking my porridge, they become bloated and juicy, delish.

sunrise 0 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Maple syrup and porridge, very nice. So is cinnamon. And roasted sunflower and sesame seeds and other nuts. And/or cook and half a chopped banana and some fresh sultana grapes and/or apple. Of course I Iike mine with soy milk, not cows milk. Link to post Share on other sites

happyhappy 0 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Get some fruit in there as well. Just a bit worried that it may not be a proper way to eat that fruit Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I haven't had porridge since I was a babyrach I think. My gran used to love it. Every morning without fail. I will have to give it a try. Link to post Share on other sites

Davo 1 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Good porridge ideas guys. Soft brown sugar was specifically desined to melt on the top of scalding hot porridge was it not. The add milk and fruit and you're away. When are we going to Costco snowglider? Link to post Share on other sites
misorano 1 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 porridge sucks. Isn't there an icon for vomiting on here? Link to post Share on other sites
