I know my parents have to soak them the night before, so that they are not so hard for them. Myself I never ever ate it again.Does that info help? |

I was going to try adding some oat groats to a stew but they're more difficult to find than the steel cut. If the steel cut don't get mushy I'll try them. Thanks. |

Isn't oatmeal soup the same as porridge?

I think porridge is thicker and oatmeal soup is more the liquid form. At least that is what I remember from my childhood.  |

No, a porridge is made from a grain that has been crushed or mangled in some way as to make the result mushy.
With the oatmeal soup/stew I want the oat grains to retain their shape and not make the result mushy. |

try Whole Foods or a health food store for oat groats; they generally will have them in stock.

OK, I'm still in the dark about what kind of soup the OP is seeking. Is it a meat and grain soup like beef barley? A vegetable soup? Are oats the central ingredient or just a thickener?
