Preserved Egg Beef Fragrant Rice Porridge

Overview

In China's four thousand years of history, porridge has always been with us. The writing about porridge was first seen in the Book of Zhou: Huangdi began to cook grains for porridge. Porridge in China was mainly for food 4,000 years ago and began to be used for medicinal purposes 2,500 years ago. The biography of Bian Que Cang Gong in the "Historical Records" records that the famous doctor Chun Yuyi (Cang Gong) of the Western Han Dynasty used fire to heat the porridge to treat the disease of King Qi. The Han Dynasty medical sage Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" states: After taking Guizhi Decoction for a while, sip more than one liter of hot porridge to enhance the medicinal effect. This is a strong example. In the Middle Ages, the functions of porridge were highly integrated with edible and medicinal purposes, entering a humanistic health-preserving level. Su Dongpo in the Song Dynasty wrote a note saying: If you are very hungry at night, Wu Ziye advises you to eat white porridge. The porridge is delicious quickly, and the sleep after the porridge is indescribably wonderful. Lu You, a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, also strongly recommended eating porridge to maintain health, believing that it can prolong life. He once wrote a poem "Porridge Food": Everyone in the world learns to eat porridge, but they don't realize that the years are at present. I have come to Wanqiu's simple method, and only eat porridge to bring immortality. This has raised the world's understanding of porridge to a new level. It can be seen that the relationship between porridge and the Chinese people is just like the porridge itself, which is thick and dense and nourishes each other. As a traditional food, porridge has a higher status in the hearts of the Chinese people than any other nation in the world. The porridge made by Fatty is made with preserved eggs and beef. It has a sticky texture and smooth taste.
