How to make ginger porridge

1. Rinse the rice. Wash the dried red dates. Slice the ginger.

2 Add appropriate amount of water to the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then add rice, dates and ginger slices and cook together.

3 Cook over high heat for 10 minutes, then turn to low heat and continue cooking for 40 minutes until the porridge becomes thick.

Tips

1. Do not eat too much ginger at one time to avoid absorbing a large amount of gingerol, which will irritate the kidneys during excretion through the kidneys and cause "heat" symptoms such as dry mouth, sore throat, and constipation.

2. Do not eat rotten or frozen ginger, because ginger will produce carcinogens after it goes bad.
