Ting Porridge. Follow this simple method to recreate a beloved classic at home.
Ingredientes
- 1 taza ting (fermented sorghum drink)
- ½ taza maize meal (fine or medium)
- 2 tazas water (or adjust for desired thickness)
- pinch of salt
- sugar, milk, or butter for serving (opcional)
Instrucciones
- Mix maize meal and ting: In a bowl, combine the maize meal with a little ting to make a smooth paste.
- Boil water: In a pot, bring water and a pinch of salt to a boil.
- Add maize meal-ting mixture: Slowly pour the paste into boiling water while stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
- Simmer and stir: Reduce heat and cook for 10–15 minutes, stirring frequently until the porridge thickens.
- Adjust consistency: For a softer, creamier porridge, add extra ting or water as it cooks.For firmer porridge, cook longer and stir less.
- Sirve: Serve hot, optionally with sugar, milk, or a knob of butter. Ting porridge has a naturally slightly sour taste from the fermentation, which pairs well with sweeteners.
