I had a Ukrainian roommate who would boil buckwheat groats and mix it with an unhealthy amount of mayonnaise and ketchup and it is better than you expect.
When I was younger I would go through an entire box of Cream of Wheat (a brand of instant wheat porridge) in a week. It’s way better than regular oatmeal.
Well, the brown sugar and apple cinnamon varieties are. Plain cream of wheat is absolutely vile.
Oats are the worst grain to make a porridge from. Rice, millet, buckwheat, maize, and wheat all make much better porridges.
Man buckwheat? That’s a hot take indeed, big upvote from me

That’s a fairly low bar to clear …
This take is so hot, really though, where did the groat hurt you?
Explain yourself, are you using whole or flaked grains for porridge?
Also barley, am I a joke to you?
C’mon @combatwombat, we need answers!!
Sorry I was making a delicious millet porridge
Millet? Well now I’ve heard everything
I love a groat, I just prefer a buckwheat groat or a millet groat to an oat groat!
I mostly use whole grains.
I don’t know that I’ve tried a barley porridge but I’d get one before an oatmeal for sure.
