Congee actually means \"water rice\".<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Congee is a staple of Chinese cuisine, is usually enjoyed in the morning and is considered therapeutic. It is mild, easy to digest and nutritious, its effect is detoxing, it supports the Qi\u00a0and balances the gastric juices. Congee supplies you with energy, fills you up and will even improve your looks. You're essentially drinking pure rice stock and you can make it with any type of rice. It's so mild, even infants can digest it\u00a0and is also extremely beneficial for the elderly or the sick - if you can't digest solids, Congee is the perfect meal for you. It also works during fasts or if you want to detox and shed some pounds.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13984\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-300x232.jpg\" alt=\"Congee-Duo\" width=\"300\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-2000x1545.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-1500x1159.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-1000x773.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/congee-duo-500x386.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13974\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"AND-Soy-Congee_MG_1374\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-2000x1333.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/and-soy-congee_mg_1374-500x333.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In my last post, I told you about my newest acquisition, the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.andsoy.com\/shop\/de\/?affiliates=384\">\u00a0AND Soy <\/a>food processor. You can read all about it\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodtastic.at\/2017\/02\/09\/goldene-milch-kurkuma-latte\/\">here<\/a>. This magic soup machine\u00a0can also make Congee, and it'll be ready in only 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>You can also modify the recipe and use less traditional grains like quinoa, for example. You can batch cook, replace the veggies with sweet ingredients and\u00a0add goji berries, honey, nuts and butter. I modified my Congee a little as well - I garnished a chicken Congee with swiss chard, pomegranate seeds, a soft-boiled egg, coriander\u00a0and soy sauce.
