How to cook wheat cereal

Helpful Hints:

  1. Today in stores you can find two varieties - Poltava and Artek. Poltava is characterized by coarse grains and fairly large particles of grain, so it is suitable for making the most delicious cakes and is used to add to soups. Artek, on the contrary, is distinguished by small grains and is more suitable for casseroles and viscous children's dishes.
  2. It is necessary to wash the rump, but not all. In this procedure, only Poltava needs, although the majority of housewives, out of habit (or ignorance), wash all kinds.
  3. Once the water boils, be sure to remove the formed foam (as when cooking the broth). It contains small debris, which can negatively affect the taste and "pollute" the stomach.
  4. If you are not sure about the quality of the purchased product, be sure to check the absence of small stones. As practice shows, this simple manipulation helps to keep your teeth intact. So if you decide to save on the rump (although it is so cheap), it is better to be safe, so that you do not go broke afterwards on the services of a dentist.
