Savory Laba Porridge

Savory Laba Porridge

Overview

As a Sichuanese, I grew up eating salty Laba porridge. I used to see my grandma start preparing the ingredients on the first day. She would wake her up at around 6 o'clock in the morning for Laba. As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw her using a big wood pot to cook a big pot of Laba porridge for two days. Later, the big firewood pot was gone, and grandma was gone, and I no longer had that feeling. When I told my parents-in-law, they both said that they had never eaten salty food, and they all eat sweet food in the Northeast. I made it today for them to try.
