Susong Kapi porridge is a special gourmet snack in susong county, Anqing. Kapi porridge vividly expresses the definition, cooking techniques and product forms of crispy rice porridge. This porridge is so thick that it is not like porridge with people in sight, nor is it like rice soaked in water separated from rice in Shanghai. Instead, it is a crispy rice soup that is semi-submerged, semi-floating, fragrant and waxy, and melts in the mouth.
The origin of Susong Kapi porridge
In 184, four years ago, Emperor Gaozu set up Songzi Houguo, which belonged to Lujiang County, and there was only an administrative system. Therefore, Susong has a long history, a long source of literature and an ancient sound. Some old sayings in rural dialects are very particular and really learned. For example, I heard Susong people describe rice crust porridge as kapi porridge.
The words Kapi porridge vividly express the definition, cooking techniques and product forms of crispy rice porridge. Card means that after cooking, most of the rice is scooped out and a layer of rice is stuck on the wall of the pot.
crust means that this layer of rice should not be too thick, just a thin layer, which is crispy when baked slowly. Porridge means pouring rice soup into a crispy rice cooker and cooking it into thick porridge. This porridge is so thick that it doesn't look like the porridge that shows people, and it doesn't look like the rice soaked in water from Shanghai. Instead, it is a crispy rice soup that is half-submerged, half-floating, fragrant and glutinous, and melts in the mouth. It has the essence of a famous Anqing traditional chicken soup and fried rice. It's really a delicious kapi porridge.
