Lotus seed eight-treasure porridge
Five secrets of porridge recipes: 1. Soak rice: Soaking rice in soft porridge is the first step. Soak for at least 30 minutes to let the rice grains absorb water. If you add beans and other ingredients, you must soak them in water alone for more than an hour. It is easier to soften and digest after absorbing water. 2, add cold water: the right amount of water will boil out thick and suitable porridge. Generally, the ratio of porridge rice to water is: 1: 13, and the ratio of porridge rice to water is: 1: 10 (using ordinary rice measuring cups). 3. Maturity: Generally, after rice is put into a pot and boiled over high fire, it is immediately stirred with low fire. If it is easy to spill, turn it to the minimum fire and cook it slowly until it is thick. I usually like to cook porridge in a big casserole. First, the bottom of porridge is not suitable for paste. Second, the rice soup is not easy to overflow, the nutrition is not lost, and the cooked porridge will be thicker. 4. Stir: As the saying goes, "Cooking porridge is a coincidence, stir 36 times." First, stir in case of fire to prevent rice grains from sticking to the pot; Mixing rice porridge after slow fire will break up rice grains and thicken rice porridge. 5. The order in which the eight-treasure porridge is put into the ingredients: generally, the most difficult to cook is put in first, such as beans; Longan, red dates and walnuts, which are the easiest to ripen, are put at the end. Every time you put in the ingredients, mix them evenly.
