"Quiescense" refers to a state of being quiet, still, or at rest. It's more commonly used in its adjectival form — quiescent. These creamy oats — cooked in almond milk and topped with maple syrup, raisins, and toasted pecans — certainly offered a relaxing start to my Monday morning.In Vegan Soul Kitchen, Terry offers soundtrack or movie suggestions for each dish. For this one, he recommends "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos" by Public Enemy (see where he gets the cute name for the recipe).
Though I love me some Public Enemy, I prefer to listen to my politically-charged rap in the afternoon rather than at the crack of dawn. So no Chuck D for me this morning ... just a comforting bowl of quiescent oats.
I just un-earthed your lovely bloggie from the buried depths of my googlereader. And look what i've been missing....lovely awesome food! Like these oats. Mmmm-hmmm. Lookin' good. The bowl does look peaceful and I could see where it could put a peaceful start to your day. Sigh. My day was anything but. But I did start off with yoga which for me is the best attempt at peace :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't had steel cut oats in so long! I must make some soon!
ReplyDeleteI love cookbooks that give musical suggestions!
ReplyDeletequiescent oats.... mmmmm... they looks really creamy and wonderful! I almost want a warm scarf to put on just looking at them!
ReplyDelete-A
Yum, the oats look delish!
ReplyDeletefunny he suggested that particular song for first thing in the morning. i do like song themed food. i remember your b-52's entry from a long time ago!
ReplyDeleteMMM that looks so perfectly creamy and wonderful! Sometimes I scoff at oatmeal recipes in cookbooks, because, well, it's just oatmeal! But every once in a while I learn a really good trick or preparation enhancer that makes it worth making at least once, and this looks like it might be one of those! :)
ReplyDeleteHow are you finding his cookbook? I've read through it a couple of times, but I haven't yet made anything from it. The watermelon recipes look really good, particularly the ones involving alcohol ;)
ReplyDeleteI've been without a PC since the day of "BAM!", and look what I've missed-all the "food, glorious foooood". Steel Magnolia Cut Oats - I love the comfort of steel cut oats, ...and all the other selections - zowie. And the t'aboulie is, - t' live for. One of my favorite box hot cereals is "Bear Mush" from Arrowhead Mills.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the yummy suggestions!
I'm all over oatmeal in the coming months... I'll have to check Bryant Terry's recipe out!
ReplyDeleteEvery time you post a vegan soul kitchen recipe - i tell myself i *must* get that book!
