What's the difference between rolled oats
and steel cut oats?

And is there a difference, nutritionally?

The difference is mainly textural. With rolled oats the nutritional
differences depend on which type but differences are marginal.

Rolled oats have been pre-cooked and smashed between rollers which allows faster cooking. Steel cut oats are a whole grain product that takes a lot of boiling to be edible. I guess it's sorta similar to brown rice and parboiled rice. Without this processing, oatmeal wouldn't be a very popular breakfast fare.

I love steel cut oats. Prepare them like this (thank you Bobby Flay)

2 cups steel-cut Irish oats
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
8 cups water

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.

Spread the oats on a baking sheet in an even layer and bake, stirring
occasionally, until lightly toasted, about 15 minutes.

In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water and the sea salt to a boil. Stir
in the toasted oatmeal and cook for 1 minute. Cover the pot tightly
and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate at least 8 hours or
overnight.

Return the chilled oatmeal to the stove and cook over low heat until
heated through. I add butter and brown sugar, you might like milk.

Steel cut oats take about 20 minutes in the microwave. We set it all
up the night before and it's ready when the coffee pot finishes in the
morning.

Easy peasey.

I haven't bothered with steel cut for a while because I like large
flake. I saw McCaan's Irish Steel Cut Oats in a store the other day...
$9.99 for two pounds. I saw steel cut oats in the Baulk Barn last week
for $1.25 per pound. It only takes a couple minutes longer. It tastes
food. Maybe I should get some steel cut, but I will get it at the Bilk Barn.

Aveeno colloidal oatmeal bath has been around here in the US for
decades. Great stuff for irritated skin.

One of my three is highly susceptible, to. We used to joke tat no one
should even say "poison ivy" when he was in earshot. He's wound up on
prednisone a few times to calm the reaction.

Luckily he just does not come in contact with it much as a grown up.

I would bet a lot of gooey things spread all over might have helped
soothe. Mud bath comes to mind. <BG>

It seems to be that way with some people. I don't worry too much about
poison ivy because I have been exposed to it many times and never
reacted. Our former neighbour only had to be in the vicinity to a plant
and she would develop a rash. I was helping them clean up their wood
lot last summer. There was a lot of poison ivy back there. I did the
work in the areas where the ivy was and had had no problem. She never
got close it it but developed rashes anyway.

Spread warm oatmeal on poison ivy wounds and let it dry to a cake. It will
wipe out the rash.

Not all rolled oats are pre cooked, most are not precooked, those that
are instant are precooked, but they still contain all the nutrients of
steel cut oats... only difference is that steel cut oats have a
coarser texture, and of course need far longer cooking time.
