A rich, thick traditional black sesame porridge enjoyed by Joseon dynasty kings as a nourishing breakfast dish

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not add all 9 cups of water at once—divide them into three portions. This ensures the rice and sesame blend evenly and remain smooth.
  • Avoid making the porridge too salty from the start; season only lightly at first. Add more salt or soy sauce to taste when serving.
  • The bottom can easily stick, so stir continuously from the moment it starts boiling until the end of cooking.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a traditional healthy breakfast that settles the stomach and provides lasting warmth.
  • Anyone wanting to master the authentic method of making smooth, lump-free black sesame porridge without water separation.
