Notes when cooking red bean porridge:
– You can use a rice cooker to cook porridge. When using a rice cooker, rinse the rice and put it in the pot, then add a little oil and press cook. When the porridge boils, be sure to open the lid; thanks to the oil layer, the porridge will not overflow.
– You should not rinse the rice too thoroughly to avoid losing the nutrients in the rice.
How to choose good quality red beans
- Choose beans that are bright red, free from pests, and without signs of mold or unpleasant odors.
- Choose beans that are of moderate size so that after cooking, they achieve the right softness and delicious taste.
- Avoid choosing overly large beans, as these are often not tasty, have fewer nutrients than smaller beans, and can especially create a slight bitterness when eaten.
