Overview

"Eating Porridge" by Lu You Everyone in the world has been studying for years, but they don't realize that years are now. I have learned Wanqiu's common method and only eat porridge to bring immortality. Four thousand years ago, porridge was only used as a satiating food for humans. It was first used for medicinal purposes 2,500 years ago. After entering the Middle Ages, the function of porridge was highly integrated with food and medicine, and it entered a health-preserving level with a humanistic color, becoming a food and medicine. A bowl of porridge can not only bring people a healthy gastrointestinal state, but also the porridge cooked with different ingredients can achieve different health effects. Don't underestimate it! Porridge can be just a simple bowl of white porridge, or it can be ever-changing. In Suzhou, generations of people like to eat porridge for breakfast, with some peanuts, pickled dried radish, etc. It is delicious and delicious! In my family, we began to replace rice with porridge in the morning and evening meals as early as more than ten years ago. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Are you all thinking about how to prepare a huge table and have a New Year’s Eve dinner with your family? So, before or after a big meal, how about a bowl of pine nut and spinach porridge to clear your stomach? On New Year's Eve, wouldn't it be happy to get up early, cook a pot of spinach porridge, peel a handful of pine nuts for each family member and sprinkle them on the porridge, and have breakfast together? Dear friends! Remember to have a good breakfast on New Year’s Eve!
