Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding a small amount of ginger juice helps mellow the natural bitterness of pumpkin, red beans, and chestnuts, enhancing the overall depth and elegance of the porridge.
  • Do not blend the glutinous rice too finelyโ€”just 15 seconds in the blender to keep it slightly grainyโ€”for a smooth yet pleasantly chewy texture when eating.
  • Aged pumpkin has strong fibers, so blending it once in a blender is better than pounding with a mallet; this ensures a lump-free, silky porridge.
  • Only add salt and sugar to the portion you plan to eat immediately. If storing for the next day, avoid pre-seasoning, as the porridge will become watery and sour over timeโ€”season right before serving.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a homemade porridge with plenty of red beans and chestnuts, offering a satisfying chewy texture compared to store-bought versions.
