Shelley Posted August 10, 2014 at 01:01 PM Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 at 01:01 PM zhu fan = cook rice zhu zhou = cook congee xi fan = porrige ying er zhou = infant porridge (not sure exactly what this means) re fan = warm food (heat up) bao tang = boil soup ying yang bao wen guan = keep warm the last one I am not sure exactly what it all means to together but it might be something along the lines of it keeps things warm automatically turning on and off as needed. BUT this is only a guess. Enjoy your rice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPhillips Posted August 10, 2014 at 07:00 PM Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 at 07:00 PM When I lived in Taiwan people seemed to use 粥 and 稀饭 interchangeably--I suppose 稀饭 should be thinner than 粥 however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
