How many of you use the oatmeal program on your aroma? I found a write up online for making oatmeal in an aroma rice cooker and thought it was worth discussing since most of my friends only use aroma rice cooker for cooking rice.
The method uses 1 cup of oats (or more for more than one person), a 1:2 ratio of oat to water (or milk/water), and then using the oatmeal setting for 50 minute. After the 50 minutes, leave it on keep warm for another 10-20 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the extra moisture and thicken. Then add toppings to the oatmeal when it is done cooking. It sounds very involve for oatmeal, but really quite easy.
50 minutes for oatmeal seems like alot though. I’d think that would be perfect for steel cut oats but potentially too long for rolled oats that would end up mushy. Also, using milk instead of water for oatmeal for that long might cause the milk to scorch on the bottom of the pot. Have any of you used milk in your aroma cookers without it sticking to the bottom of the pot?
