People mostly know about the Cantonese style of congee (broken rice, a little gooey, heavily seasoned). I love it too!
But I also love Teochew porridge, a super plain rice soup (grains must be whole) which is meant to be paired with extremely good quality and umami sides, mostly seafood
And the different Hokkien porridges which can have multi grains and sweet potato etc

@skinnylatte ooo this Hokkien porridge sounds amazing. Any pointers? Congee is absolute comfort food.
-
@skinnylatte How many styles of porridge are there?

@petrillic very simple: https://www.malaysianchinesekitchen.com/sweet-potato-congee/
you can mix up both recipes to get the kind of thing my grandma might have made. not a ton of info about this in english online sadlt
https://thewoksoflife.com/multigrain-congee/ (this is northern style i think, a little sweeter. just make it savory instead)
-
@eviltofu hundreds! incl korean and japanese and central asian and many other styles as well
-
@skinnylatte thank you. Weekend meal.

@petrillic i think we use more purple grains and black rice and stuff like that, than different types of wheat or wheat-like grains
-
@petrillic i love eating that style with sweet potato leaves

@skinnylatte Your post reminded me of my trip to Chaozhou back in 2018, specifically, this congee with fish balls, fish cake, and shrimp. Just a big bowl of comfort.
