My ongoing quest to create an edible/satisfying gluten (oat) free porridge continues. The current mix uses polenta+chia for the stickiness, rice flakes+millet for texture and coconut+ground up almond for yums. It's ok but the millet takes way too much soaking and cooking to get soft. I might try to source some aramath instead.

I found a pretty good store bought one but it's not cheap so I'm using their ingredients as a starting point for my experiments. The polenta was a good addition.

Have you tried buckwheat porridge? It’s commonly eaten in eastern European countries, where it’s called Kasha. Buckwheat is not related to wheat, it’s gluten free.

Yeah I like buckwheat porridge. Just wanted to branch out a bit this winter
