How to make red bean porridge

Step 1: Take an appropriate amount of red beans bought from the supermarket and soak them the night before. (Beans are not easy to cook, especially red beans. I soak them for a day to make red bean porridge. There is a method on the Internet that can make red beans easy to cook, "Put the red beans in the freezer for 2 hours and then cook them. The beans will soon be cooked; or when the water is boiling, add cold water several times, and the beans will be easily cooked after being "stimulated" by the cold water several times!" You can also try this method.)

Step 2: When cooking the next day, take out an appropriate amount of soaked red beans, wash them, put them into a soup pot, add an appropriate amount of water, boil over high heat, then turn to low heat. You can skim off the white foam before it boils.

Step 3: Cook until the beans are soft and crispy, and you can taste the sandy texture in the porridge. You can also add rock sugar to taste according to your personal taste. I don’t like adding sugar to porridge, so I saved a few pieces of rock sugar.

Congee (or mi) is a kind of food made by cooking rice, millet or corn into a thick paste. The consistency of porridge varies from place to place, and different places have different nicknames for porridge from other places. Other common nicknames include: porridge and life-threatening soup.

After the porridge is cooked, a layer of fine, sticky, ointment-like substance floats on the surface. It is called "rice oil" in traditional Chinese medicine, commonly known as porridge oil. It has a strong tonic effect and can be used with ginseng.
