    Had gastritis, couldn't eat shit!. This recipe is the only thing that gave me the opportunity to eat and gain my strength. It's so gentle on the stomach and I eat it for breakfast too. My favourite.

      But porridge isnt good for gastritis i assume? Bcs is causes your stomach to produce more acid. My dad has a terrible gastritis problem since he was 40, now he's 73. He did several endoscopy (OGDS). Anyway, i hope you well and healthy🙏❤

    as an alternative.. u can just cook it in the rice cooker :) and just stir it once in a while and make sure it does not stick to the bottom :) it actually takes a shorter time to cook.. bc the rice cooker is hotter? im not very sure.. but it took quite a short amount of time to make :)

    OMG - Dried Scallops are so hard to find and that size especially are rare ! Adding Dried-Scallops to any Chinese Soup is extravagant because they are also very expensive - It’s the starter base for Scallop Soup with Egg-Drop and or Chinese Bird-Nest Soup which is the ultimate rich broth. The Cantonese can gauge the wealth of a family by the type of “soup” is being served at a Chinese 9-Course Dinner - BIRD NEST is highly prized and extremely pricey - While Egg-Drop Soup is very common but acceptable at any feast

If you want to cook it for that long then you'll def need a bit more water and stir it a lot more regularly than every 15-20 min so it doesn't burn on the bottom.

      Oh I actually triple the amount of rice + water and make it with the rice cooker. 😋 I'm too busy to stir something for over an hour on the stove. With 100 gr rice : 900 ml water ratio, the porridge was a little bit thicker than I expected, so I just pour a little bit more water, adjust the taste, and click the rice cooker back on. Very practical, it's done under an hour. 👍👍👍

    I wonder if the act of washing the rice might be the only real difference between chinese congee and Japanese Okayu. I guess they are still porridge. Personally I like adding a bit of stalk to the water with 1 part washed rice and 6 parts water. I also only cook for 40 minutes.

    • @vinmark5246
      @vinmark5246 5 років тому +18

      Japanese or Chinese grocery store, substitution could be dried shrimp or Japanese konbu (dried kelp). The purpose of using dried scallop is for adding extra umami from the ocean, you can sub it with whatever other dried sea-ingredients. If you really can't find it, you can just skip it and use fresh shrimp or prawn, clam is also a good choice too. Besides sea-ingredients, dried shitake mushroom goes really well with chicken congee too, and you also need to soak it for hours to hydrate it first.
