Hulless Oats |
|
|
|
|
| Hulless oats grown on our
farm. These oats have never left the farm. They were
grown, harvested, cleaned, stored and minimally processed
here. They are non-GMO and certified organic. These
oats would look like the whole oat groats you would buy at the
store; except these haven't been heat treated and processed
to remove the hulls. Unlike the oats commonly grown in the
U.S. (Avena sativa) this less common oat (Avena nuda) naturally
loses it's hull in the harvesting process (combining). Then
cleaned up on the farm, stored and packaged. Sometimes
called a naked oat, hulless oat or peeled oat, the advantage is
the groats are still raw. They'll still sprout. The
disadvantage is they are harder and more expensive to grow.
This also allows our rolled or stone milled oat products to be
created with much less processing. No heating or hulling of
the oat is done to the groat before it is milled on our
farm. The particular oat variety we grow is darker than
varieties typically used for food. (Whiter varieties are
typically grown for food to make them look better.) We chose
this variety more for it's taste than its appearance. |

Whole groats take longer to cook than
steel cut oats and cook up with the consistency of rice (not into
a mush). The whole groats are raw and are still viable seeds
(able to sprout and grow into an oat plant) |

| |
Coarse oatmeal is stone ground groats
with large (but broken) pieces. Traditional Irish Oatmeal
(before steel cut) |
|
|
| |
Fine oatmeal is stone ground groats,
also known as Scottish oatmeal. (Can be made into an instant
oat "porridge" on the stovetop. |
|
|
| |
Oat flour is the finest stone ground
groat and typically are used for baking. |
|
|
| |
Our rolled oats are rolled thick
to make an "Old Fashion" oatmeal*. They are cold
rolled raw oat groats. Minimally processed.
*When purchasing, please note: On this site we refer to
stone ground oats as oatmeal. What's typically found in
stores and called oatmeal or rolled oats are here referred to
simply as rolled oats.
