About Organic Medium Oatmeal
Organic Medium Oatmeal - This has a pleasant, less granular texture, ideal for porridge and parkin. It is the best variety for coating fish and foods before cooking and is good in stuffings and crumble topping.
Oats are high in potassium, have useful amounts of calcium and are also a fair source of protein whilst being high in insoluble fibre (great for healthy digestion and proven to help lower cholesterol). They are also moderately rich in B vitamins, B1, B2 and especially inositol, and their carbohydrates provide a long slow delivery of energy to our systems. They can be useful in preventing heart disease and maintaining healthy circulation. They also contain beta glucans which boost the immune system.

Customer reviews
I found the smaller packs to be a very different product to the 25kg bags. I would rate the smaller packs as very good. As I was impressed with the quality of the small packs I decided to order a 25kg sack. However when I started using it, I found it was a different quality. Firstly, there was an excessive amount of blackish bits in it which kept coming to the surface despite removing them five or six times. I have never had oatmeal with this much unidentifiable bits in it. Secondly, on closer examination I noticed that the sack stated that the oatmeal had been 'stabilised'. This turns out to be steam processing which I would not have expected. I cannot recommend this product.
By on I have a great recipe for oatmeal and apricot stuffing which this medium oatmeal is perfect for. I have also, with varying degrees of success tried making oatcakes with any that I didn't use in the stuffing. Perhaps a face mask might be more successful another time.
