First of all, cereal is the staple food, and most porridge is mainly rice, flour and miscellaneous grains, which embodies the basic principle of "cereal-oriented". Secondly, the food is diverse and the porridge is inclusive. If you want to eat meat, you can add chicken, duck and fish to the porridge. Want to eat light, vegetables, fruits, flowers and so on. Can make porridge; Want to eat "gold", add some abalone, sea cucumber and bird's nest; Want to eat "low-key", sweet potato and millet can also be eaten together.
As for the matching of thickness, the main raw material of porridge is grain, in which coarse grains, miscellaneous grains, and miscellaneous grains, such as millet, sorghum, corn, buckwheat, oats, coix seed, adzuki bean, mung bean, kidney bean, etc., can all be cooked together into a "one pot porridge".
"From this perspective, although there is no large-scale clinical study on the health and nutritional value of porridge, this eating habit that has been circulated among the people for thousands of years is definitely reasonable and worth inheriting and carrying forward." Wu Weikang said.
