I'm making jook (aka congee) for breakfast today using David Lebovitz's recipe.  It's not quite ready as I type this, I"m trying to let the falvours get to know one another as Lebovitz suggests in his recipe.

This is a very exciting breakfast option for me.  I like the idea of porridge, jook is essentially a rice porridge, but I'm not a huge fan of sweet things and especially not in the morning.  I've added frozen peas, dried mushrooms and garlic scapes to my jook, just stuff I had on hand.  It's a shame that I didn't go out and get some ginger and dried shrimp but if this goes well then those can be for next weeks batch.

It's a big recipe so in a perfect world I could make this Monday morning and then have it for the rest of the week.

Here's a picture of its process.
