Cooking tips

Five secrets of soft and greasy eight-treasure porridge:

1, soaking rice: The first step is to boil out soft porridge and soak rice for at least 30 minutes to let the rice grains absorb water. If you add beans and other ingredients, you must soak them in water alone for more than an hour. It is easier to soften and digest after absorbing water.

2, add cold water: the right amount of water will boil out thick and suitable porridge. Generally, the ratio of porridge rice to water is 1: 13. The ratio of rice to water in thick porridge is: 1: 10 (using ordinary rice measuring cups).

3, heat: generally, after the rice is boiled in the pot, immediately turn to a small fire and keep stirring. If it is easy to spill, turn it to the minimum fire and cook it slowly until it is thick. I usually like to cook porridge in a big casserole. First, don't paste the porridge at the bottom. Second, the rice soup is not easy to overflow, the nutrition is not lost, and the cooked porridge will be thicker.

4, stirring: As the saying goes, "Cooking porridge is a coincidence, and it takes 36 minutes to stir." Stir first to prevent rice grains from sticking to the pot in case of fire; Mixing rice porridge after slow fire will break up rice grains and thicken rice porridge.

5, eight-treasure porridge feeding order: generally the most difficult to cook first, such as beans; Longan, red dates, walnuts, etc. The easiest dishes to cook are put at the end. Every time you put in the ingredients, mix them evenly.
