Questions

How long does Pumpkin Rice Porridge keep?

Blend the base ahead and freeze it for up to a month, then re-blend it briefly before serving. Once assembled it does not keep; the texture goes as it melts, so eat it right away.

Can I halve or double Pumpkin Rice Porridge?

Yes. As written it serves 4. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. Doubled, blend in batches rather than overfilling the jar.
