Life Tips

1. This porridge is very suitable for cooking with a pressure cooker, because mung beans and black rice are reluctant to become soft and mushy. Cooking porridge with a pressure cooker will make it soft and sweet, with a strong fragrance. The cool breeze arrives on the day of the Beginning of Autumn. The Beginning of Autumn represents the official arrival of autumn. The daytime temperature is still high, but the temperature difference between day and night increases. The heat and coolness are easy to hurt the summer heat. At the beginning of autumn, after the consumption of the whole summer, it is very necessary to replenish the body. At this time, the body's resistance is at its weakest. Therefore, eating more foods that can enhance the body's immunity is the focus of diet and health preservation in the beginning of autumn. According to experts, health preservation in autumn should focus on moisturizing dryness and invigorating qi, and the key points are to strengthen the spleen, nourish the liver and clear the lungs.

Experts say that in autumn, we should consider both nutrition and nourishment, and choose foods that are easy to digest and absorb. We should follow the principle of less spicy and more sour, and drink more porridge for nourishment. At this time, we must not take a large amount of tonics, such as ginseng and deer antlers, for a surprise tonic, and eat less spicy food. We should eat more sour and fresh fruits and vegetables that can moisten the lungs and relieve dryness, such as pears, apples, water chestnuts, lilies, radishes, lotus roots, white fungus, fungus, mushrooms, kelp, seaweed, soy products, etc., and choose some chewy and fiber-rich foods. This has a good preventive effect on preventing dry mouth and nose, rough skin, constipation, etc., which are most likely to occur in autumn.

It is especially suitable to drink porridge in the morning after the beginning of autumn. In early autumn, it is very easy to weaken the spleen and stomach function and reduce immunity. If you can eat some warm food in the morning, especially hot medicinal porridge, it will have a good nourishing effect on the spleen and qi. Experts especially recommend drinking sugarcane porridge, polygonatum odoratum porridge, adenophora porridge, raw rehmannia porridge, peanut porridge, etc. in the morning. It smells delicious.

2. If you don't use a pressure cooker to cook porridge, the rice needs to be soaked for a few more hours, and it needs to be stirred frequently during cooking to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.

3. Many friends are afraid of pressure cookers and worried about danger. I think that is unnecessary. If you are really afraid, you can turn down the heat when the pressure cooker starts to emit steam and there will be no danger at all.
