Oatmeal Gruel II

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup coarse oatmeal
• 1 pint cold water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• milk or cream

Instructions

Pound oatmeal until mealy, add one-third of the water, stir well, let settle, and pour off the mealy water. Repeat twice, using remaining water. Boil the mealy water thirty minutes; season with salt, dilute with milk or cream, strain, and serve. A delicate gruel, but more expensive and less nutritious than Oatmeal Gruel I.
