Congee (Chinese Rice Porridge)
Velvety Chinese rice porridge cooked low and slow, served with century egg, ginger and a drizzle of sesame oil. Stirring the rice regularly through its long simmer is what breaks the grains down into that signature creamy texture rather than leaving loose grains in broth.
