This had me chuckling!!!! I get what you mean now - funny how we CDer's heads almost spin off our necks when we think we spot the opportunity for a 'legal' munch
Porrige for 'experts'
Make up a hot shake, throw in a dessertspoon of PH, whisk briefly with a stick blender, pour into bowl, top with cinnamon (if wanted) - job's a good 'un!
Porrige for beginners:
Make up a hot shake, pour into a bowl, sprinkle a dessertspoon of PH on top, mix briskly with a fork or balloon whisk until it starts to thicken. Top with cinnamon (if wanted).
The reason I say there are 2 different methods is that if you whisk PH too much or if you use water that's too hot then you can end up with wallpaper paste! Doing it the beginner's way is a slightly slower process and you can stop mixing BEFORE it gets all gloopy!
Some people like to stick the porrige into the microwave for a little while when it's mixed to thicken it up more - the key is to experiment until you find a way that produces a result that's right for you.
The 'right' consistancy will be something akin to semolina rather than porrige - Scott's Porrige oats it aint!! But it makes an acceptable alternative when on CD.
Hope that helps!
