Jook

Jook (粥, 	zhōu) is a traditional rice porrige eaten in the Earth Kingdom, also called "rice congee". It is usually eaten for breakfast, though it may be used as a substitue for rice at other meals. Jook is prepared by boiling rice in a vast amount of water until it is broken down into a starchy paste, the consistency of which depends on personal preference. Garnishes such as salted eggs, lettuce, and bamboo shoots are often added for variety, while seasonings such as white pepper and soy sauce are added for flavor.
