We Ran Out! Let's Review How to Extend the Quality Shelf-Life of Rolled Oats

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Regular rolled oats are one of my favorite foods. We eat them almost every day in one form or another. I was incredibly frustrated when I realized that I had allowed my stash of regular oats to be depleted. We were blessed that it happened while oats were still available in the store.

    A pesticide linked to reproductive and developmental issues in animals was found in oat-based foods sold in the U.S., including under major brand names like Cheerios and Quaker Oats, according to a recent peer-reviewed study. Chlormequat was detected in 80% of people tested in three geographical regions of the U.S. between 2017 and 2023, according to the study by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) and published in the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. Researchers also found that "the concentrations detected in 2023 samples were significantly higher than previous years' samples." While some studies published in the National Library of Medicine linked the chemical to reproductive or development issues in animals, it raises "questions about whether it could also harm humans," EWG researchers noted. If you Oats came from any other country other then the US there is a good chance the Oats are tainted with Chlormequat

    I do have quite a bit of oats stored. It's probably pretty tied up with my rice and beans. I love how versatile oats are. Breakfast and dessert are a no brainier but my grandmother, who grew up in the depression, would always use them in her meatballs and meatloaf as a binder and to stretch her grocery budget. I am forever grateful she imparted such wisdom in me in the short time I knew her

    I also recently discovered that my storage of oats was low. I've bought more, but need to re-package them for longer-range storage. Since I need to avoid gluten, I store ground tigernuts (nothing to do with tigers and not a nut, but rather a tuber). They have a protein/carbohydrate/fat profile similar to dairy milk and taste, to me, a bit sweet with a touch of vanilla. In the future, as I have more money, I want to purchase a grain mill and store whole tigernuts and oat groats.

  • @alindasue
    @alindasue3 ай бұрын

    I'm not sure what my number 1 food would be because I always think about how a variety is needed for nutrition. However, the shelf stable foods we probably use most are white beans and jasmine rice. Oats are up there, though. I use them in baking and as the bread filler in meatloaf. When I ran out of whole wheat flour back in 2020 (an oops moment, like you experienced with your oats), it was easier to grind my oats into flour than it was to grind the wheat berries.

    It may be overkill but I put the mylar bag in the bucket, add the grains and an O2 absorber, seal all but a half inch, insert a plastic tube attached to the FoodSaver, suck out all the air I can, and then seal that last bit. Then I leave it out in the kitchen where I can see it a day or two later, to make sure it is vacuumed tightly (you see the grains hugged by the mylar.) If the vacuum didn't hold I know it is a bad bag, which only happened twice I think. BTW I have had rodents eat through those heavy duty Rubbermaid trash cans no kidding. Big gaping holes!!! That was in the barn though. No rodents in the house thankfully.
