Ham elephant pudding porridge
By BradLehner
Geoduck, also known as "sea bamboo", belongs to the family Lamellibranchus of the phylum Mollusca. It is a kind of marine shellfish. Its two shells are usually the same size, thin and fragile, and have serrations, parashells, and water pipes (also called tentacles) at the front end. This water pipe is very similar to a fat and thick meat pipe. When it looks for food, it stretches out and is shaped like an elephant pulling, hence the reputation of Geoduck. Its meat is white in color, tender in meat, and clear and sweet in taste. It is regarded as one of the precious and delicious seafood varieties for nourishing yin.

Steps for Ham elephant pudding porridge

1
Wash the rice first and then put it into the rice cooker and press the porridge button for about 1.5 hours. The ham is sliced, shredded and finally diced.
2
Cut the elephant into rings first and then into cubes.
3
Shred green onions and ginger and put them in elephant plums, then pour some white wine and mix well. The white wine is poured to remove the fishy smell of elephant plums, so it is best to pickle it for a while.
4
Cook the porridge for about half an hour and add diced ham.
5
Because it's better to eat elephants than to eat, so wait until the porridge is cooked for the last ten minutes or so and pour in elephants.
6
Because ham is salty and fresh, salt and MSG are not used.Ham elephant pudding porridge Make Tips
