Thanksgiving Turkey Congee

The morning after a grand Thanksgiving feast, there’s no better way to warm up and refuel than with a steaming bowl of comforting turkey congee, just like my dad used to make. This traditional Chinese rice porridge is a staple for breakfast or brunch, but its soothing, easy-to-digest properties make it a perfect pick-me-up at any time of day. As a childhood favorite that’s been a part of my life since infancy, turkey congee remains the ultimate comfort food, evoking memories of cozy family gatherings and offering a wealth of health benefits to boot.
