Tips:
1. Cook porridge with leftover rice, the ratio is about 1 bowl of rice and 4 bowls of water;
2. Boil preserved egg porridge, preferably in a casserole. Preserved eggs are alkaline and should not be cooked in an iron pan;
3. Before peeling the preserved egg, it is best to let it boil in water for a few minutes, and then put it in cold water to cool, so that the texture of preserved egg will be harder, and the egg core will not be so wet and sticky when cut;
4. The lead in preserved eggs is especially harmful to the elderly, and long-term use is more likely to cause Alzheimer’s. It is recommended to buy preserved eggs and go to large supermarkets to choose lead-free preserved eggs.
