Kitty said: Yes.How do eat your porridge?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(How do eat your porridge?),it will help you,my kids.
What do you add to the dull fare to get you through a cold winter's day?
Answer:
The obvious answer is with a spoon. As a Sasanach I prefer my porridge sweetened with sugar or syrup.
what big eyes i would have... what big ears i would have... and what a big mouth i would have
If I HAD to eat porridge... I would guess with melted choc. sauce.
giggle
use sugar instead of salt!
cook in milk
add a sqiggle of honey - preferably macadamia honey.
Actually i do, and i eat it with a sandwitch
with the use of a bowl. spoon and your mouth.
nah... im not a fan of it.. but i would say either nutellla and then stir it or honey...
I love the taste of plain, regular porridge. I make it with milk rather than with plain water, though. It gives it a better flavor. Just add a little salt as well, and then a little butter that melts in the middle is nice.
For a bit of variation, try sprinkling some cinnamon and sugar on top.
Being Scottish....it use to be a wee bit of salt...but my Gran used to put a bit of milk or a smiley face made from sugar on it before I went to school...or hunny...
Either a dollop of honey or strawberry or raspberry jam. Cooked in milk and sugar of course! Rather have my omelet, mushrooms, vine tomato , bacon or sausage and spring onion with a little fresh green chilli. with two freshly baked petit pains ...care to join me? :D please dont say "How could you?" because I do!!
lots of sugar..I know its bad..but it tastes good!!
I would add some golden syrup to give it flavouring.
use a spoon.
With Milk and Salt - mmmmmmm!
First make it with either all milk or half and half. If you are worried about weight and cholesterol then use skimmed or semi skimmed milk.
Before cooking add half a thinly sliced banana and stir in. Stir in again at halfway stage.
Another is stir in half a teaspoon of honey. Half is quite enough as the flavours are then suttle. Or sprinkle on when cooked, some ground nutmeg. Not too much though as it could spoil the effect. The aroma you get is wonderful.
Do not add salt as it is bad for you as is sugar.
Dried cranberries & maple syrup.
Either masses of sugar OR Golden Syrup. Nothing else is sweet enough!
nice and hot with honey and sugar. Yummy!
I have eaten porridge for some years, having tried the Scots way of sprinkling with salt and several other ways I prefer now to put some honey into it and stir it in, this is quite a pleasant taste as well as the ingrediants of the honey are good for the body , read up on honey benifits to health, the porridge slowly breaks up and helps to keep hunger away preventing snacks and thereby fattening so stick with it
Either Quakers maple & brown sugar or if it's plain I add my own brown sugar.
If I'm in a hurry I eat my porridge standing up. If I'm not in a hurry I eat it sitting down. After it's cooked I add brown sugar, and vanilla rice milk to make it less dull. I prefer to cook it on the stove as I think it tastes better than microwaved. According to a porridge web site traditions and myth surround the making of porridge, some say that the oatmeal should be added in batches, some say at the beginning, and some say it ought to be added half way through the cooking to produce a nuttier flavor and an interesting texture. Me I just add it at the beginning with the water and salt and I let it over cook. Happy eating.
I like my porridge with extra milk, so it is more runny than stoggy. I also add loads of raisins, makes it a lovely breakfast then!
with a spoon,add a egg and some honey.yum,yum.
First you get some on a spoon.
Then bring spoon to mouth in an upwards swing movement.
Open your mouth when spoon is almost level.
Guide the spoon into your mouth.
Close mouth around spoon, then withdraw the spoon.
Hey Presto I'm eating porridge.
I make it with Soya milk (try to keep off dairy) and add a teaspoonful of honey to sweeten it - yummy!!! Did you know porridge can seriously reduce your cholesterol? So it has many benefits.
salt and a bit of milk. But remember, the correct way is to have the milk in a cup and dip the spoonful of porridge in. Beware of the "Englified" version of pouring the milk on top which makes it like snotters.
extra milk over the top and sugar..delicious!
i read thru the answers, coming from Asia, porridge in our culture is made of rice cook with lots of water to give a runny consistency.
Just for info, we normally eat our porridge with steam or fried fish and vegetables, soya sauce or soup on the side (chicken, fish or vegetable). Some eat it with salted fish or salted eggs, while others eat it with peanuts and fried baby anchovies.
Before Goldilocks calls to visit.
When I'm lazy, I cook the oatmeal with water (on the stove of course) for about 20 minutes, then add milk, bring to boil, then add an egg and honey. Other then oatmeal, we (Chinese) refer rice porridge as congee, here is a brown rice congee recipe.
<<<<<<<< Brown Rice Congee >>>>>>>>>
80g of Brown Rice, soaked in 500 cc of water overnight to make it soft
100g of Jasmine Rice (raw)
2 slices of ginger, crushed
1 slice of dry orange peel (chinese herb), soak in water - optional
300 g of pork, cut into bite size (or chicken)
2 liter of water
salt
1) Heat a pot with water, boil pork for 2 minutes, then wash under running tap water for 2 minutes, to clean blood and fat)
2) Heat a big pot of water, put all the ingredients into the pot when the water is boiled, reduce heat to medium, cover the pot and let it boil for half an hour then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour or until congee is thick, stir occasionally. Boiling time is subject to how thick you prefer your congee to be.
3) Add sea salt to taste, serve with Chinese pickles or other meat dish or vegetables.
Sometimes I add meat into oatmeal, here is my recipe
<<<<<<<< Minced Pork Oatmeal Porridge >>>>>>>>>
150 g minced pork (marinated with salt / garlic powder / corn starch for about 20 minutes)
120 g oatmeal
250 cc non-fat hi-calcium milk
800 cc water (depends on how thick you like it)
chive or green onion and coriander - finely chopped
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon of seasalt
white pepper
1) Boil the oatmeal with water in a cooking pot for about 15 minutes with medium to low heat, stir occasionally
2) Add milk to the oatmeal, bring to boil again and stir till it is nice and thick
3) Stir in the minced pork and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes
4) Add egg into the pot, turn off heat, stir quickly to make egg drops, add sea salt and white pepper to taste.
5) Pour oatmeal in serving bowls, sprinkle chive / green onion.
6) Serve with Chinese or Japanese pickles or some roasted peanuts.
