Instructions
- In a heavy pot, bring the rice, liquid and optional salt to a boil, then turn it down to a simmer and cover loosely with a lid.
- Cook gentle, stirring occasionally, until the rice is thoroughly cooked and the porridge has become thick and creamy, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Serve up hot with the condiments of your choice or plain, just as it is for a comforting, simple meal.
