There is no strict requirement on the amount of water added to cook millet porridge, which can be determined according to your own preferences. You can add more water if you like it thin, and less water if you like it thick. Generally, put 8- 10 bowl of water in a bowl of millet, and the cooked millet porridge will be thinner. If you only put about 6 bowls of water, the boiled millet will be more viscous.

Cooking skills of millet porridge

1, soak in warm water

Before cooking millet porridge, you can soak it in warm water for 20 minutes. Millet absorbs water and boils more easily. It produces more oil, which makes it more viscous and nutritious. But do not soak the millet for more than 20 minutes. If the soaking time is too long, the nutrition in the millet will be easily lost, and the cooked millet will be too soft and rotten.

2. Hot water kettle

When cooking millet porridge, be sure to pay attention. After the water in the pot is boiled, put the millet in the pot. Putting the millet in the pot in cold water will easily lead to the loss of nutrients and the fragrance will be reduced by half. After boiling water is put into the pot, the starch in the millet will be cooked faster, making the cooked millet porridge more viscous.
