    I remember as a child my mom would have me whisking the cream of wheat til my hands started hurting but it would come out so good every time. I don't know if it's a Caribbean thing but I love raisins and cinnamon sticks in my cream of wheat and oatmeal.

    I actually cut the recipe in half for one and adjusted it for the microwave. I had this once while living in Puerto Rico for 3 1/2 years. The lady of the house only made it once, but I really like it. I was sad when she didn't make it again, but I'm so happy to be able to make it for breakfast now. Thank you for the recipe.

I used this video as reference but gave it my own twist, instead of sugar I used a whole can of sweet n condensed milk, and instead of plain cow milk I used unsweetend vanilla almond milk.

  • @crazy4cocoapuff
    @crazy4cocoapuff Před 5 lety +7

    I grew up on this, and we would cook it with water. The best way was to cook it exactly as she said, until it was relatively thick though. Then add a pat of butter, stir. Then add milk until creamy/thinner/the consistency you prefer. Also, we would often use maple syrup instead of sugar (super yum) Or Brown Sugar was ALWAYS better than the white sugar!!
    Another thing that is super awsome is if you have a baby or toddler, you can feed it the normally prepared way, but especially cool is that you can pur the prepared Farina into a shallow glass dish and let it cool. Then cut it into cubes for the toddler. High on iron and easier for them to eat (less messy). Also, it introduces them to different textured food. Very cheap as well! You may want to coat pan in butter or cooking spray 1st, so the cubes come out easy.

    • @DarthKorrin
      @DarthKorrin Před 5 lety +1

      I use damn near the exact same method except no water all milk 1cp to be exact then I usually add vanilla extract just a splash, butter and cinamon of course pop in microwave for 1min and BAM but, that brown sugar idea sounds good I'm gonna try that.

    You took me back to memory lane. I should have some tomorrow. We also use carnation milk but you have to add one part water one part carnation milk. And when it’s all done I like to put several tablespoons of carnation milk on top. I also like to put butter on other occasions.
