Taboos for cooking barley and red bean porridge;
Never add rice, because rice grows in water. It is wet and sticky. Red beans and coix seed are all dampness-removing, so they are not strong and the soup is very clear. Traditional Chinese medicine just uses its clarity to get rid of the dryness and dampness of human body.
If rice is added, it is equivalent to adding water, so the whole porridge is thick. Although the taste is good, it is not a good thing for health preservation, because the dehumidification effect of red beans and barley is all in vain by adding rice.
