Red Date Millet Porridge

How much do you know about red dates millet porridge? Let me introduce you to some knowledge about this porridge.

Red Date Millet Porridge

1. I originally wanted to cook it in a casserole, and put all the ingredients in the casserole. Suddenly, I had something to do, so in order to save time, I used a pressure cooker to cook it. Cook it on high heat until the pressure cooker is steaming, then turn to low heat for 15 minutes and turn off the heat. If you drink porridge every morning, I recommend using my usual trick: before going to bed the night before, prepare all the ingredients, put them in the electric stew pot, add water, and set the timer. I usually set the electric stew pot at home to cook porridge for two to three hours, and set it to automatic mode. The time is set to cook before getting up. For example, in the current weather, I set the electric stew pot to work at 3 am and the power is cut off at 6 am. When I get up at around 7 am, the temperature is just right for eating.

2. This time I cooked the porridge thicker. If you like it thinner, just add more water when cooking.

3. Red dates must be pitted (because the pits are hot and some people cannot tolerate it). Eating the jujube flesh alone will not cause hotness. If you fry the millet in advance, it will be more fragrant, easier to expand when cooked, and more glutinous.

4. In addition to being rich in nutrients, millet also contains the highest amount of tryptophan among cereals, which helps regulate sleep.
