Congee is a simple, very well cooked rice porridge that can restore  strength and bring warmth to the stomach.  Our modern diets are very cold in nature.  Raw vegetables, iced drinks, excess fruit, and diets high in carbohydrates cause a great deal of damage to our stomachs.  This recipe is great to use during acute illness/infection or during times of seasonal allergies.  


​Brown Rice and Walnut Congee
Ingredients
  • 1 cup of organic sprouted brown rice 
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 8 cups of water
  • sea salt
  • walnuts
How to prepare:
  1. To expedite cooking time, add brown rice to a food processor or blender first while dry to break into small parts.
  2. In a large pot add brown rice, water, and chicken stock and bring to boil.
  3. Add in walnuts and a pinch of salt.
  4. Once water is boiling, turn to a simmer and add lid on a slight angle to allow steam out.
  5. Continue to simmer on low to medium heat for 2-5 hours until rice is smooth
Eat congee for breakfast and as a starter before meals. Congee will re-balance your digestion, allowing you to absorb more energy from meals.
