Time is like a white colt passing through the gap, always inadvertently lost. In the blink of an eye, we are about to usher in the second snow festival of winter. Light snow only reflects the climatic characteristics of this festival, not that there will be a few small snowflakes in the sky immediately. It's just that at this stage, the precipitation increases, the cold air activity is frequent, and the temperature will become lower and lower.
Although there is no dripping water into ice, but the temperature in the morning and evening is still very low, appropriate increase or decrease clothing and exercise, we also have to drink more water, eat more food that can resist the cold, such as meat, potatoes, eggs, milk and so on. Bao Ma recommends 5 kinds of food to everyone, and the winter is full of stomach feeling, rich in nutrition, and the calories are enough to cope with the whistling cold wind.
Type 1: Meat (beef, lamb, chicken)
With the improvement of people's economic conditions, many people are not happy. As the saying goes, "summer raises three volts, winter makes up for three or nine", people use this to eat with their heads open and their bellies open. In winter, calorie consumption is large, and eating some meat can quickly replenish calories, but those who cannot come do not refuse, and cannot overeat. We try to eat some meats that are rich in protein and low in fat, such as beef, duck, lamb, chicken, etc. Beef and mutton are relatively expensive and we can replace them with chicken.
Stewed chicken with potatoes
Ingredients: 1/2 chicken, cooking wine, bean paste, millet spicy, green onion, ginger, garlic, cooking wine, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, potatoes, salt, cooking oil
Production process:
We chop the chicken into chunks, soak it in water and scrub it, and pour it into the pot.
Add the shallot knots, sliced ginger and cooking wine to the pot and blanch the water. After the water has boiled, remove the chicken nuggets and rinse them off with warm water.
Heat the pan with cold oil, pour in the chicken nuggets and sauté for a while. After the surface of the chicken nuggets is dried, pour in cooking wine, light soy sauce and soy sauce together and stir-fry evenly, simmer for 2 minutes.
Add garlic, bean paste, ginger slices and stir-fry evenly before pouring boiling water. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer over low heat.
When the chicken nuggets can be inserted with chopsticks, pour in the peeled, washed and chopped potatoes and continue simmering for 5 minutes.
Season with salt, add chili peppers, simmer for 10 minutes, sprinkle with green onions and serve.
Type 2: Rhizome ingredients (radish, yam, cauliflower, taro)
Chinese from many years ago, we should pay attention to health maintenance, and eat more seasonal ingredients in our diet. Before and after the light snow, radishes, lotus roots, yams, etc. have been listed. They are inexpensive, nutritious, and cooked in a variety of ways that they can be eaten every day without repeating themselves. They also have a feature that they are resistant to storage, buy dozens of pounds at a time, and don't have to worry about not eating all winter.
Pork belly stewed yam
Ingredients: 1 yam, 500 grams of pork belly, cooking wine, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, soy sauce, salt, cooking oil, green and red peppers, star anise, fragrant leaves
We put the pork belly on the gas and grill it, then soak it in water, scrub it clean and cut into small pieces.
Heat the pan with cold oil, pour in the dried pork belly and simmer for a while. When the pork belly is a little out of oil, add cooking wine, soy sauce and old soy sauce and simmer for about 2 minutes.
Add the ginger slices, star anise, and fragrant leaves and stir-fry for a while. Pour boiling water over high heat and simmer over low heat.
Peel the yam, cut into small pieces and soak in water. Remove the pedicles of the green and red peppers and cut them into small pieces.
When half of the soup is left in the pot, pour in the yam, add some salt and continue simmering.
Once the yam is cooked thoroughly, add the green and red peppers and stir-fry over high heat for a while before coming out of the pan.
Type 3: Black food (black fungus, black beans, kelp, seaweed)
The older generation said that after winter, we should eat more black food, which is good for our body. The nutritional composition of black food is also very good, rich in protein, calcium, iron and other trace elements. They are indispensable nutrients for the human body, especially iron. Eating some foods with high iron content can improve the body's cold resistance, such as black fungus, black beans, etc. are good choices.
Black fungus mixed with peanut rice
Ingredients: 50g black fungus, 1 handful of peanut rice, green and red pepper, vinegar sauce, salt, flour, sugar
We soaked the black fungus in cold water for 1-2 hours, remember to add some sugar to promote the foaming. After the fungus is soaked, add flour and knead it to remove impurities from the fungus. Then scrub the fungus a few times and drain the water.
Pour the fungus into the pot, add some salt, add water, blanch the water. After the water boils for about 2 minutes, remove it, drain it with cold water and put it in a bowl.
After washing the peanuts, pour them into the pot and stir-fry them constantly, turn off the heat after hearing the sound of peanuts and rice bursting, and continue to fry for a while.
Remove the peduncle, scrub it clean, cut into small pieces and place in the fungus.
Peanut rice is also put into the fungus, add oil and vinegar juice, mix and mix to eat.
Type 4: Foods high in iodine (kelp, seaweed, wakame, spinach, celery, etc.)
As we all know, iodine is one of the trace elements necessary for the human body. If it is missing, it may be physically weak and easy to fatigue. Everyone usually eats some ingredients with high iodine content, which can promote growth and development, promote metabolism and so on.
Spinach mixed with peanut rice
Ingredients: 1 handful of peanut rice, 300 grams of spinach, millet spicy, garlic paste, vinaigrette, salt, cooking oil
We remove the roots, rotten leaves, old leaves, etc. of the spinach, soak it in water, and scrub it clean.
Bring water to a boil, add 1 spoonful of salt and 1 spoonful of oil. Pour spinach in blanched water, remove from the water in about 1 minute, and squeeze out the water after passing the cold water.
Wash the peanuts and drain them. Brush the bottom of the pan with oil, pour in the peanut rice, and stir-fry for a while. When the peanuts are ripe, turn off the heat and continue stir-frying.
After the peanuts and rice are cold, pour into the spinach, add the millet spicy, garlic paste, oil and vinegar sauce together and stir well to eat.
Type 5: Fruits (bananas, kiwis, oranges, winter dates)
After the light snow, although the weather is getting colder, there are still many fruits to eat. It is recommended that you can eat bananas, kiwifruit, oranges, winter dates and so on. These are seasonal fruits that are convenient to carry and are rich in nutrients. For example, bananas are called "happy fruits", kiwis have low calories, and winter dates are fresh and sweet.
They can be eaten directly, can be made into preserved fruit, and can also be made into sugar gourds to eat. These fruits are not expensive, better than eating fried chicken burger fries.
Conclusion: Tomorrow is a little snow, friends who are afraid of cold can eat these kinds of food appropriately, eat according to the seasons, and spend the winter in good health.
