1. Cook the Steel-Cut Oats: In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Stir in the steel-cut oats and salt. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 20-30 minutes or until the oats are tender and have absorbed most of the water.

Notes: Steel Cut Oats: The oats are left whole and cut into pieces with a steel mill. Steel-cut oats are the least processed and therefore maintain the best texture when cooked.
