About Congee with salted lean pork and century egg

Congee with Salted Lean Pork and Century Egg is a traditional Chinese dish renowned for its comforting texture and savory flavor. This classic rice porridge is made by simmering white rice in water or broth until creamy and smooth. It is enriched with tender pieces of salted lean pork, which adds a protein boost, and slices of century egg, preserved duck or chicken eggs known for their unique, umami-rich taste. The dish is low in fat and can be a soothing option for those with digestive sensitivities, as congee is gentle on the stomach. However, the sodium content may be higher due to the salted pork, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation if watching salt intake. The inclusion of high-protein ingredients and the hearty consistency make this comforting dish a fulfilling meal or snack in Chinese cuisine, often enjoyed during breakfast or as a nurturing remedy during recovery.
