Muesli
is a cold Swiss breakfast dish, the primary ingredient of which is rolled
oats. Most often, it is set to soak overnight and eaten the next morning.
Additional ingredients, such as grains, nuts, seeds, and fresh or dried
fruits, are added, along with milk or cream, a squeeze of citrus juice,
and honey to add sweetness. Yoghurt or other mammal or plant milk products
are now commonly added to both homemade and commercially packaged muesli
recipes. Developed around 1900 by Swiss physician Maximilian
Bircher-Benner for patients in his hospital, it is now eaten as a standard
breakfast dish, like a breakfast cereal, and in Switzerland also for
supper as Birchermüesli complet muesli with Café complet (milk coffee,
accompanied by bread, butter and jam (Butterbrot)). In addition to being
prepared raw, muesli can be toasted. Muesli can also be processed further
by adding sweetener and oil to bind the ingredients together and baked to
produce
granola.
