Sharing Health with the Love of Oat

Hi friends,

This is probably the longest post ever ^_^, but it's about health, so it should be long heehee.  I've been MIA for 2 days but I'm going to share all of you what's my weekend like.

First thing first, on Saturday morning where me and my family (by this I meant my husband and child) will wake up late, like really late that it made a sun screaming with heat. But I was invited by Mr. Agus for www.sayangijantungmu.com movement (love your heart). So located in Q Smokehouse (Senopati) we have a Saturday brunch (10 AM) with all the ingredients using oat, almost no sugar, and no salt.

It is known that heart disease and stroke is a number one killer in the world, so this movement emphasis on the health of a heart, by exercise and by food. Discussion today: By food.

Yes, a lot of yummy food to be exact, from Nasi Bakar to delicious snacks that can filled you up with nature goodness. But hey, why oat? Oat is a soluble fiber that if we consume it in a right way, it can help reduce the risk of heart disease, and it doesn't stop there, from colon cancer to better digestion system either for a general health to anything specific.

Yet, so far many of us consume oat with sugar and milk, cookies, or well, that's it. Oh yes, those oat bars. But do you know sugar is not good for you if you take it more than 12 teaspoon (not table spoon). And for salt, about 2300 mg which is much lower than what usually we know 6gr (and it is really low to what we consume every day). Are we able to eat food without salt?

Chef Winny will share to us how. But let me share with you some of the guest here:

Picture above is Me, Ninit (Urban Mama), and Santhi Serad ( a food scientist), wow, I'm among great people ^_^

All of us together (lucky people gathered by Mr. Agus)

Now it's food tasting time!! Yes, the main of the event is eating, here are some of the guest eating delicious chicken satay (yes, oat in here too), so yummy. Besides Nasi Bakar and Chicken Satay there'also broccoli and cheese, Muffins, Pizza, and still many more. It's all about our own set of mind. Oats itself can easily 'blend in', as for me I'll start with oat and rice, Chef Winny told me how, cooking the rice as per usual with rice cooker, the minute it is cooked while it's still steaming hot pour, the oat accordingly and mix in gently just to make sure there are almost well even. The oats will melt and become one with your normal rice. It is a simple and easy way for my family to digest oats daily.

You can start by mixing the oat 80 to 20 (rice to oat) to 50 to 50, adjust in your own way and keep increasing the oat.

I will share with you some of the recipes (in Bahasa Indonesia), if you need in English please ask Google to translate them ^o^
