The slow cooker version would be great to have for breakfast, though.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751345150459980798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2510397078587696302.post-28130034520461233592011-06-24T16:07:10.029-07:002011-06-24T16:07:10.029-07:00I made this in a slow cooker:

Most recipes are for oven, so if using one of those, subtract about 1/3 of liquid for slow cooker.VeeKoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13425861009122172815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2510397078587696302.post-79363757401170656032011-03-29T14:01:06.192-07:002011-03-29T14:01:06.192-07:00It is great reheated.

I'm sure individual servings could be reheated in the microwave, too.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751345150459980798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2510397078587696302.post-22468341920453672692011-03-29T06:41:43.262-07:002011-03-29T06:41:43.262-07:00i had a wonderful barley porridge in an hotel in H...i had a wonderful barley porridge in an hotel in Helsinki and I think this might be it.<br />Only one question though.<br /><br />Do you think I can prepare it in the evening and reheat it in the morning?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014410491322526741noreply@blogger.com
