1. If you want to cook soft porridge, the first step is to soak the rice for at least 30 minutes to make the rice grains fully absorb water, and then add a proper amount of water to the eight-treasure porridge. After soaking, you can cook it. This step can not only make the eight-treasure porridge soft and rotten, but also be easy to digest and absorb. After soaking, we can add a proper amount of cold water to the pot.

2. I would like to remind everyone here that only by adding appropriate amount of water can we make thick and suitable porridge. Generally, the ratio of porridge rice to water is 1: 13, and the ratio of thick porridge rice to water is 1: 10. Then, put the filtered eight-treasure porridge into a pot and boil it over medium heat. After boiling, turn the medium heat to low heat.

3. Stir constantly when cooking porridge to prevent rice grains from sticking to the pot. After that, stir slowly with low fire to disperse the rice porridge particles, then cover the pot and cook for about 30 minutes. Open the lid then;

4. Finally thicken, add the prepared starch water into the eight-treasure porridge in turn, and stir while adding it, so that the cooked eight-treasure porridge will taste better. After boiling, add some rock sugar and cook for two minutes. Then you can cook.
