There are many varieties of Herculean flakes. Regardless of the species, they all contain proteins, fats and various vitamins. What is the difference between types of oatmeal? The whole point is how these flakes get. Grinded oat groats are steamed until soft, then flattened by the press. And depending on the thickness of the flakes from the press, it depends on which sort of flakes they will treat. And accordingly, how much time will be cooked. Very thin flakes are perfectly digested, even if they are not cooked at all, but simply filled with hot milk or water, and left under the lid for 10-15 minutes.

Although someone can say that Hercules is not a grain, nevertheless, it requires the same careful preparation. It is necessary to sort out the oat flakes, choosing from them all the husks and osteal particles.

At the bottom of the pot you need to pour a little water, about as much as to cover the bottom by 1 cm. Then put the pan on the fire, and pour into it the prepared Hercules flakes. Now we pour in the milk, and mix everything well. Someone, instead of 3 glasses of milk, prefers to pour flakes with a mixture of 1.5 glasses of water, and as much milk.

Do not stop constantly stirring, cook porridge on a small fire for 7 - 10 minutes. During this time the flakes should swell, and the milk will become much less. Now add about 2 teaspoons of sugar, a little salt (1/4 teaspoon), prepared butter, and mix everything thoroughly. Then remove the pan from the fire, cover, cover with a warm towel and let it brew for another 10 to 15 minutes.

Some ways of making Herculean porridge differ in that the flakes are poured into already boiled milk. What kind of recipe for Herculean porridge you choose is a matter of purely your taste and convenience. If you decide to first boil the milk, it is better to pre-add salt and sugar in it, and only after a minute flakes. In ready-made porridge you can add anything: dried fruits, nuts, berries, various sauces and so on.

Flakes in the evening are filled with milk, salt, and left under the lid for 20 minutes. Then you need to put the pan on a slow fire, and cook the porridge for 15 minutes, after boiling. Leave the mess for the night, and warm it in the morning. Regardless of whether sweet or salty is porridge, before serving add sour cream, or cold milk.
