Preparing Cooked Breakfast Cereals1. Bring the recommended amount of water to
boil2. While the water is boiling, add the cereal so
that it will not stick. All the cereal particles must have equal contact with the water and heat so the starch granules can swell uniformly.
3. Gently stir while adding to the water, and continue to stir while cooking. Stir gently to prevent the break up of the cereal product.
4. Cook over low to medium heat-until the cereal thickens.

water into a saucepan.2. Bring to a boil.3. Cover the saucepan.
