Congee with Nuts and Dried Fruits

Introduction:

"[Laba porridge] when fragrant porridge is cooked, this kind of coarse cereals porridge will be cooked on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. It has been used since ancient times. Let's not talk about the origin, sacrifice, worship, celebration or anything else. The original way of doing this is that there is no way to verify anything. Every family will be different from each other, but this special meal has never changed. The country people have the simple wish of the country people, that is to expect their families to be healthy, grain to be plentiful, and livestock to be prosperous. So Laba porridge is not only for the whole family, but also for the trees in the yard, the livestock in the family and the crops in the field. When we were young, we didn't like what we want now. On Laba day, my mother usually made a strange salty rice with corn grits and noodles and some beans, called Laba rice. The taste of this kind of rice can be vaguely remembered. I'll ask my mother how to do it and copy it. Today's Laba porridge uses eight kinds of materials. It's a very casual match. With these grains, you can use them. "

I cook it slowly over a small fire, and the smell of porridge wafts all over the room. The ingredients of Laba porridge are very random, not necessarily eight. But rice or glutinous rice can not be less, so that congee will stick to the aroma. It doesn't matter whether you soak or not. As long as the heat is up, the porridge is delicious.
