Required ingredients (for reference only): rice, millet, glutinous rice, black rice, peanuts, longan, red dates, lotus seeds and red beans.

Practices and steps:

1, all the ingredients are more or less casual, just grab a handful each. Except for red dates and longan, all the remaining ingredients should be washed with clear water first, then soaked in clear water for 2 hours, or soaked overnight in advance and cooked the next day.

2. Pour the soaked ingredients into the pot, then pour in the right amount of water twice as much, bring the water to a boil with high fire, then put the pitted dates and longan into the pot, and then turn to low heat and slowly boil. You'd better choose a casserole to cook porridge. Cook it.

3, porridge has been boiled thick, all kinds of ingredients are soft and rotten, our Laba porridge is ready, and friends who like sweets add a spoonful of white sugar or brown sugar, which is equally delicious.

Tip-I recommend that you cook in a casserole. If you use an ordinary iron pot, remember to stir the ingredients with the lid open. There are too many ingredients, and it is easy to stick to the pot.

Now life is getting better and better. There are already more than eight kinds of ingredients for making Laba porridge, but none of the following three ingredients are indispensable. Authentic Laba porridge is indispensable, otherwise it will only be a pot of stew.

The first category is the most traditional cereals, such as rice and glutinous rice.

The second category is dried fruits, such as peanuts, lotus seeds and red dates.

The third category is beans, such as red beans, soybeans and mung beans.

In traditional culture, these three kinds of ingredients are the basic ingredients for cooking Laba porridge, which represents the ingredients of all directions. Only Laba porridge containing these three kinds of ingredients has the meaning of traditional culture, so it can be called Laba porridge, otherwise it is a bowl of ordinary eight-treasure porridge or porridge.
