Steps to prepare millet porridge.
Millet porridge, also known as yellow rice, is a porridge made with millet as the main ingredient, and is one of the common foods in the rice diet of northern China. Next, I will go into detail about the steps of making millet porridge.
1.Prepare the ingredients: First, you need to prepare a certain amount of millet, water, and condiments such as sugar or salt, which may be used.
2.Panning millet: Put the millet in a bowl and rinse it twice with water to wash off impurities and dirt on the surface.
3.Soak before cooking: Soak the washed millet in water for 10-15 minutes, which will make the millet easier to cook, and also allow the millet to absorb some water, making the cooked millet porridge thicker.
4.Cooking porridge: Put the soaked millet into a pot and add an appropriate amount of water. Note that the amount of water should be well controlled, generally speaking, the height of water should be 5-6 times the height of the millet. Then, bring the water to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and bring to a slow boil.
5.Stir and adjust the heat: While cooking porridge, stir frequently to prevent millet from sticking to the bottom of the pot. At the same time, as the water evaporates, pay attention to adjusting the heat and keep the millet porridge in the pot in a slightly boiling state.
6.Waiting to be cooked: The cooking time of millet porridge is about 30-40 minutes, depending on the variety of millet and the heat of the porridge. When the millet porridge becomes thick and the millet becomes plump, you can turn off the heat and let it cool naturally.
7.Seasoning: Depending on personal taste, you can add an appropriate amount of sugar or salt to millet porridge for flavoring. If you like porridge with a rich taste, you can also add some nuts, red dates, longan and other ingredients to boil together.
The above are the basic steps of millet porridge. Of course, everyone can adapt and innovate according to their tastes and preferences.
