Why people make this congee
In traditional thinking, children are said to have “an abundance of liver, a shortage of spleen” — meaning their inner fire flares easily. Nourilo notes that when a child is short on sleep and heat builds up, you may see chapped, dry lips and sudden irritability for no clear reason. This congee is a soft, mild-tasting bowl traditionally used to nourish yin, gently clear that excess heart-fire and help an unsettled little one calm down.
