To prepare this cereal, combine one part cereal with two parts water or milk in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cereal reaches your desired consistency. You can also make a larger batch and reheat portions throughout the week. For a richer flavor, you can cook it with milk instead of water. It absorbs liquid well, so adjust as needed.
