when i prepared this porridge it was in a slow cooker (unconventional method) but you can purchase a congee cooker. it takes all day but it s well worth it., i used 1-1/2 cups of a good quality rice and soaked it overnight., next morning i drained the rice and rinsed it carefully under cold running water., i added the rice to the crock pot / slow cooker with at least 3 - 4 cups of either homemade vegetable stock and water or chicken broth and water and i always added finely chopped onions, minced garlic and a dash of hot sauce but that was my personal choice., i do not have exact measurements for this recipe because i did it by eye., i cooked this on high for the entire day, usually adding more hot liquid throughout the day., consistency is not too thick and not too thin or watery., i always placed a tea towel over the top of the crock pot / slow cooker to prevent any heat from escaping., this porridge is absolutely delicious and excellent as cold weather comfort food. we usually had baby bok choy, chopped green onions, soy sauce and hot sauce with this. i like a dollop of butter on mine as well ;)
