Grain Profile

SpeciesAvena sativa

Flavor: Sweet, light, grassy

Fun fact: Oats were often looked down on in centuries past as a second-class crop, but have become much more appreciated in modern times.

Oats, in the form of oatmeal, are perhaps the second most common cereal grain in most American kitchens. Long appreciated in hearty, inexpensive breakfasts, oats are only increasing in popularity, as people look for gluten-free options, and in the alternative milk space. This ubiquitous and delicious grain can almost do it all!

Similar to rye, oats have endured throughout the ages as a reliable crop in marginal growing regions where wheat would not grow. The cool, wet summer of Northwest Europe, for example, proved an ideal climate, and oats were a foundational food source in these areas for many centuries. Today, oats remain a significant player in global food production, both for human consumption and as animal feed. Like many whole grains, they contain a variety of essential nutrients, and, famously, are noted for their ability to lower cholesterol.
