Comments on: Turkey Congee (Rice Porridge) https://www.closetcooking.com/turkey-congee-rice-porridge/ Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Dried scallops are an optional ingredient that can be added and bring an extra layer of flavour!

You’re right that the flavour is very subtle, which makes it wonderful if you’re just recovering from a cold or stomach bug. I guess it’s like chicken soup, nourishing and easy on the tummy.

I like to drizzle a bit of sesame oil on mine just before eating.

They cooked it until a lot of the rice had kind of disintegrated into the broth. I agree, it did kind of grow on me.

the dried scallops definitely add a ton of flavor.

next time add a bit more fish sauce if you want a deeper flavor!
