Oatmeal Gruel

Boil two-thirds of a cup of well-cooked oatmeal in one cup of boiling water fifteen minutes, or until the grains are very soft. Add an equal amount of milk, a few grains of salt, and a grating of nutmeg. A little cream is an improvement. It may be served strained or unstrained, as desired.
