Eight-treasure porridge is also called Laba porridge, and the custom every year is to drink a bowl on Laba Festival. As you can know from the name, eight kinds of ingredients are used in the eight-treasure porridge, including rice, millet, corn, coix seed, red dates, lotus seeds, peanuts, longan and various beans. However, the choice and use of ingredients are not fixed, and you can use ingredients you don't like instead of those you like.

50g of black rice, glutinous rice 120g, 30g of red beans, 20g of coix seed, 30g of peanuts, 60g of red dates 12, 60g of lotus seeds, 30g of kidney beans, about 1850ml of water and a proper amount of rock sugar.

1. Prepare the ingredients used. As mentioned above, the ingredients of eight-treasure porridge are not fixed, so you can choose whatever you like.

2. Wash red beans, peanuts, barley, lotus seeds and kidney beans and soak for 3 hours. You can soak all night if you are not in a hurry.

3. Put the soaked beans and red dates into a rice cooker or casserole, add 1850 ml of water, and cook for 40 minutes regularly. If you use a casserole, turn to a low heat and cook slowly for half an hour after the fire boils.

When cooking beans, soak glutinous rice and black rice for half an hour at the same time. When it comes to beans, add glutinous rice and black rice, and press the porridge button. If it is a casserole, it needs to be boiled for 50 minutes.

5. Add a proper amount of rock sugar to the cooked eight-treasure porridge while it is hot, and enjoy it after stirring and melting.

1, beans are not easy to cook, so they need to be soaked in advance and cooked before glutinous rice. Once we cooked together, the glutinous rice was cooked, but the beans were still hard-hearted

2. The freshly cooked eight-treasure porridge is not as thick as that sold in the supermarket for two reasons: First, there is no tremella, and the eight-treasure porridge will become thick after it is cooled.
