Simple Millet Porridge
A delicious and authentic sauces recipe for Simple Millet Porridge, prepared with traditional seasonings and techniques.
Ingredients
- • 1/2 cup (120 grams) millet ((*see footnote))
- • 8 cups (2 liters) water
- • Sugar
- • Fermented tofu
- • Pickled vegetables
- • Parmesan cheese
Preparation Steps
Rinse millet a few times with tap water and drain.
Add water to a medium-sized pot and bring to a boil.
Slowly add millet to the pot.
Continue cooking until the water returns to a boil. Turn to low heat. Use a ladle to skim the foam from the surface, so the porridge won’t spill during cooking.
Cook while keeping the porridge boiling, but not too fiercely, for 30 minutes. Stir the porridge several times after 20 minutes, so the millet won’t stick to the bottom of the pot.
If you want a thicker porridge, keep cooking after 30 minutes are up, and stir the porridge constantly as it thickens, about 10 minutes.
The porridge is ready when the millet is tender but still keeps its shape.
