Methods to prevent overflowing when cooking porridge include choosing a suitable pot, controlling the heat, adding oil, etc.

1. Choose the right pot

When making porridge, it is recommended to choose a pot with a larger capacity so that there is enough space when the porridge is boiled. At the same time, the bottom of the pot should be flat to ensure even heat distribution and avoid overheating caused by local overheating.

2. Pay attention to the control of heat

When making porridge, first heat it over high heat, and then turn to low heat after the porridge is boiled. This will help maintain the temperature of the porridge and reduce the risk of overflowing. possibility. In addition, when cooking porridge, always pay attention to the control of firepower. If you find that the porridge is about to overflow, you should reduce the firepower in time or slightly open the lid to release some steam.

3. Add oil

When cooking porridge, adding two drops of oil to the pot can also prevent overflowing. Because the density of oil is relatively small, when mixed with water, it will float on the upper layer of water and separate the water and air. The boiling point of oil is relatively high. When the water temperature reaches 100 degrees Celsius, the water will boil, but it will not reach the boiling point of oil. This layer of oil can effectively inhibit the boiling of water, so that the rice soup will not produce a lot of foam and escape.

Introduction to the techniques of cooking porridge:
