Easy to prepare

This porridge is firmly entrenched in the title of democratic. It seems impossible to spoil it! To make it liquid, you can simply add more water or milk, and at the very end of cooking, if it suddenly thickens. For greater density, you can cook a little longer, and you get what you need! Semolina porridge on water and milk is so unpretentious that most of us have no idea how to cook it correctly. But in ancient Russia it was considered a whole art! And it is no coincidence.

Manna from heaven or food for feasts

Perhaps the expression "manna from heaven" came to us from the Bible. But in Russian culture, it was fixed precisely in relation to semolina. Before the Soviet period, it was considered not just a “delicacy”, but food for holidays and feasts. In the 12th century, the word porridge, which referred specifically to semolina, was associated exclusively with solemn feasts. Groats were not available to the common people, so only a few knew how to make semolina porridge.

The reason for such a narrow distribution was the cereal production technique. Rather, flour, because semolina is a product of wheat processing. That is grinded finely and finely and passed through a sieve. The smallest grains are sifted out and packaged like flour. And a little larger, which do not pass through the sieves, are selected and called semolina.

So, in the XII century, to which the first mentions of the product in Russian chronicles belong, the grinding technology was very expensive. It remained so for an extremely long time, right up to the Soviet period, when there were a lot of mills and bread became "the property of the people." Since then, semolina has become popular, but the traditions of its preparation have not survived. Therefore, they cook it the way they have to. According to culinary theorists, for example, the famous Russian historian and culinary specialist William Pokhlebkin, completely losing both the taste and benefits of the product.

The subtleties of cooking

How is semolina porridge cooked? Do not think that the question of how to cook deliciously liquid semolina porridge is extremely simple or akin to art. There are several subtleties in it that are important to consider. Thanks to their observance, the dish will turn out without lumps, and without the very hated "foam" that everyone remembers from childhood.

Proportions of semolina in milk and water - the basis good meal ... To make it moderately liquid, 100 grams of cereal should be used for 500 ml of water (milk).
Pour cereals through a sieve... This will help prevent lumps from forming in the dish. Semolina must be dispersed over a boiling liquid and stirred vigorously.
Stir without stopping... It is important that the grains do not stick together into lumps, and the porridge does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
Cook quickly. When asked how much to cook semolina porridge, professional chefs answer: no more than two minutes! Pour cereals into a saucepan, stir vigorously and turn off after 2 minutes. Then cover and wrap with a towel. It is under the influence of steam that the porridge should reach readiness. By the way, its temperature is higher than that of the liquid itself during boiling, due to which the grains will swell faster. You can serve porridge 10 minutes after the "steam bath".
Add additional ingredients after the porridge is ready. Good choice for breakfast, boil semolina porridge in milk and add butter, honey, fruit or bananas to it. Each ingredient goes well with delicate taste main product. But perhaps, having cooked the porridge correctly, you will not want to flavor it with anything other than butter!

The very hateful foam on the surface of the porridge appears due to prolonged cooking. While the cereal is boiling, starch and protein are destroyed in it, which then float to the surface. This product no longer contains useful vitamins and valuable protein, its consistency is too thick, and the taste is lost. Therefore, do not exceed the holding time of cereals on fire!
