Have you ever seen an oat before it was rolled or cut? Now you have! Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Oat Groats are the whole grain - germ, bran, and endosperm - without having been rolled or steel cut! Sure, that means they take a little longer to cook but we promise these little gems are worth it! Of course you can use oat groats to make a hearty breakfast porridge, but you can also use them for pilafs, risottos, grain salads, soups, stews, and in any recipe that calls for whole grains.
