List of Porridges

Porridge is a dish made by boiling ground, crushed, or chopped starchy plants, typically grain, in milk or water. It is often cooked or served with added flavorings such as sugar, honey, or syrup to make a sweet porridge, or it can be mixed with spices or vegetables to make a savoury dish. Here is a list of various types of porridges from around the world.

Types of Porridges

Oatmeal

Oatmeal is a type of coarse flour made of hulled oat grains that have either been milled (ground) or steel-cut. Ground oats are also called "white oats". Steel-cut oats are known as "coarse oatmeal", "Irish oatmeal" or "pinhead oats".

Cream of Wheat

Cream of Wheat is a brand of farina, a type of breakfast porridge mix made from wheat semolina. It looks similar to grits, but is smoother in texture.

Grits

Grits is a porridge made from corn (maize) that is ground into a coarse meal and then boiled. Hominy grits is a type of grits made from hominy, corn that has been treated with an alkali in a process called nixtamalization.

Congee

Congee is a type of rice porridge or gruel popular in many Asian countries. When eaten as plain rice congee, it is most often served with side dishes. When additional ingredients, such as meat, fish, and flavorings, are added while preparing the congee, it is most often served as a meal on its own.

Polenta

Polenta is a dish of boiled cornmeal that was historically made from other grains. It may be served as a hot porridge, or it may be allowed to cool and solidify into a loaf that can be baked, fried, or grilled.
