It is eaten in a flat bowl or a dish. If made from [[cornmeal]] to which boiling water is added, this can be seen as a variant of &#039;&#039;&#039;porridge&#039;&#039;&#039;, though these are more often described by regional/national variant names such as [[polenta]] and [[grits]] and are prepared and served according to special regional traditions. [[Oat]] and [[semolina]] porridge are the most popular varieties in many countries; other cereals used for porridge include [[rice]], [[wheat]], [[barley]], and [[cornmeal]]. [[Legumes]] such as peasemeal can also be used to make porridge.<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Gruel&#039;&#039;&#039; is similar to &#039;&#039;&#039;porridge&#039;&#039;&#039; but is much more like a drink; it has a very thin consistency and is made with water.<br /> <br /> In many cultures, porridge is eaten as a breakfast dish, often with the addition of [[salt]], [[sugar]], [[milk]] or [[cream]]. As the traditional breakfast of Scotland, it is made with [[salt]]. Some manufacturers of breakfast cereal sell &quot;ready-made&quot; versions. Porridge is one of the easiest ways to digest [[grains]] or [[legumes]], and is used traditionally in many cultures as a food to nurse the sick back to health. It is also commonly eaten by athletes (especially those who do road running) during training.<br /> <br /> In Scotland, the art of porridge-making is competitive with the World Porridge Making Championships held annually in Carrbridge, Inverness-shire. The event is also known as the Golden Spurtle due to the winner receiving a gold-coloured trophy of a [[spurtle]], which is a utensil used for stirring porridge. The contest is held in October each year.<br /> <br /> {{CategoryLineIngredients}}<br /> [[Category:Ingredients]]<br /> [[Category:Prepared foods]]<br /> <br /> &lt;!-- footer hashtags --&gt;&lt;code &#039;hashtagrev:12032020&#039;&gt;[[Special:Search/porridge|#porridge]] [[Special:Search/legumes|#legumes]] [[Special:Search/cornmeal|#cornmeal]] [[Special:Search/barley|#barley]] [[Special:Search/spurtle|#spurtle]] [[Special:Search/cereal|#cereal]] [[Special:Search/grits|#grits]] [[Special:Search/preparedfoods|#preparedfoods]] [[Special:Search/oats|#oats]] [[Special:Search/semolina|#semolina]] [[Special:Search/oat|#oat]] <br /> &lt;/code&gt;&lt;!-- /footer hashtags --&gt;</div>
