Tips

When cooking porridge, pour the washed rice into the water after it boils, rather than boiling the water and rice at the same time. This way, the temperature inside and outside of the rice grains are different, and many fine cracks will appear on the surface of the rice grains, making it easy to bloom and ooze starch. The starch will continue to dissolve in the water, and the porridge will be thicker.

When cooking rice porridge, the pot may overflow. In order to prevent the rice crumbs and soup from overflowing, you can add 5 or 6 drops of salad oil into the pot during the cooking process.

You can cook more porridge at one time and prepare more porridge ingredients. Fresh ingredients such as vegetables, meatballs, shrimps, etc. can be used as porridge ingredients. In this way, you can taste different flavors of raw porridge.
