Sweet and waxy glutinous health porridge is here~ a variety of miscellaneous grains of rice, as well as lotus seeds, red dates and longans, a very nourishing bowl of porridge!
It is usually cooked in an electric rice cooker, and it takes at least one and a half hours to cook such a soft, rotten and sticky degree. The Supor health pot used today only took 1 hour. In fact, it is very, very sticky and fragrant after one hour has passed. Personal obsessive-compulsive disorder is committed again. You must cook for one hour...
Health depends on soup and porridge! Drinking such a bowl of nourishing health porridge every day will definitely become more beautiful~

Health Congee with Red Dates and Lotus Seeds

1. Put the miscellaneous grains rice except lotus seeds, longans, and red dates into a container and soak for 1 hour to make it easier to boil.

2. Wash the lotus seeds and soak them separately. I have soaked with rice several times before and found that even the pressure cooker cannot boil the lotus seeds. Later, if they are soaked separately, they will be easily boiled. I wonder if it is related to the soaking with rice.

3. Pour all the rice, lotus seeds and soaking water into the Supor health pot, and then add an appropriate amount of water. Turn on the Yangshengtang mode.

4. Wash the red dates and shell the longan. When the porridge is cooked until there are 20 minutes left, add red dates and longan, and continue to cook.

5. When the Yangshengtang mode time is up, add rock sugar powder, mix well and enjoy.

Tips:
Do not soak lotus seeds with rice, otherwise it may be difficult to boil. Personal experience, if it is like this, you can try it out.
If you are not adding rock sugar powder but rock sugar cubes, put the rock sugar cubes in the porridge in advance and cook together.
Put the red dates and longans last, otherwise it will reduce the sweetness and affect the taste.
