What is the method to prevent porridge from overflowing?

Many people have the habit of drinking porridge, but those who often cook porridge know that it is very easy for the porridge to overflow when cooking, and the porridge soup is everywhere, which is very troublesome. In fact, it is simple to prevent the water from overflowing when cooking porridge. You can add some peanut oil or sesame oil to the pot before the porridge water boils, so as to prevent the porridge from overflowing.

How to prevent porridge from overflowing when cooking

1The rice porridge overflows because there is gas in the rice. If you soak the rice for half an hour before cooking the porridge, this problem will be greatly improved.

2 Based on the same principle, we can also drop 2 or 3 drops of vinegar into the pot before cooking the porridge. Note that 2 or 3 drops are enough, too much will make it sour. By using acetic acid to react with the gas-producing components in rice, the chance of the rice porridge popping up can be greatly reduced.

3Here is another little trick, which is to drip 5 drops of oil into the pot before cooking porridge. If you can do the above points, you can easily solve this problem.

When cooking porridge, after the water boils, the porridge water often overflows from the pot and stains the pot and the table. Just drop a little peanut oil or sesame oil into the pot before the porridge water boils, and use low heat after the water boils. This way, no matter how long the porridge is cooked, the water will never overflow from the pot.
