<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Just returned from China here is a really good congee recipe, note it takes 7 odd hours to cook to get the texture right otherwise it is just rice. How to Make Basic Congee or Rice Pudding Cook one cup of brown rice in 7-9 cups of water over a very low heat for six to eight hours. This can also be done in a crock pot overnight. You can substitute sweet rice for all or part of the rice. Breakfast Congee Add raisins or chopped apricots, some chopped walnuts and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
