To cook rice pudding, it is of course most convenient to use a rice cooker! As a porridge expert, based on many years of experience, I recommend using a rice cooker to cook rice pudding, which takes about 1 to 1.5 hours. The specific time also needs to be judged according to the power of the rice cooker and the viscosity of the porridge. I will provide you with a detailed reference:

If you are using a conventional household rice cooker, the power should be between 300W-500W. , then it normally takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to cook rice pudding. During this time, the porridge will gradually change from thin porridge to thick, but it will not be too dense. During this time, you need to check the status of the porridge from time to time to prevent it from burning! Once the amount of porridge is reduced by half and has become thick, you can turn off the rice cooker, and the porridge will continue to thicken slowly due to the residual heat.

If you want a thicker pot of eight-treasure porridge, you can choose a rice cooker with greater power and capacity, and the cooking time needs to be extended to 1.5-2 hours. Within this time frame, the eight-treasure porridge will turn into a typical thick porridge shape, with full color, flavor and flavor, very beautiful! However, you need to stir frequently to prevent the bottom of the pot from getting stuck.

Finally, no matter which power rice cooker you choose, I recommend that you wash all the ingredients before starting to cook, add water to 2/3, and check and stir frequently during the process. Only by adding the appropriate amount of water and stirring continuously can the eight-treasure porridge be cooked with a mellow and even aroma. After the rice cooker is closed, the lid must be closed to allow the porridge to continue to slowly thicken in the natural residual heat. Only in this way can this eight-treasure porridge be successfully completed!
