Friends, have you been hoarding a lot of food lately?
My family is hoarding, and even gave away thousands of elliptical machines, just to save a little space to put a new freezer. (But to be honest, the treadmill was also given away last time, and now there are walking machines and bicycles...) ）
Before hoarding the freezer, of course, I had already arranged to hoard non-perishable, not occupy the refrigerator, easy to eat, a variety of flavors, and a certain amount of nutrition - canned!
Many people think that canned food is unhealthy, because the ingredients used in it may not be fresh, have a lot of nutrient loss, and have a lot of preservatives.
Is this really the case?
Can I eat canned food?
| ingredients are not fresh?
Taking the very popular canned yellow peach as an example, only by minimizing the time from picking, transporting to processing can we reduce losses and transportation costs, and the taste and freshness can also be maximized.
Therefore, some brands with a relatively perfect supply chain pursue "freshly made", and the whole process even takes less than 10 hours.
And generally choose the period when the production of ingredients is the largest, because the raw materials that are often purchased are cheap, and the final products will be more competitive in price.
| preservatives added ?
The 2014 version of the National Standard for the Use of Food Additives (GB2760-2014) stipulates that canned fruits and canned aquatic products are strictly prohibited from adding preservatives. Others can only add a little bit, such as nitrite in canned meat.

The reason why it can be preserved for so long is because with the development of food processing technology, there have been sterilization technologies such as thermal sterilization, modified atmosphere sterilization, microwave sterilization, etc., which can protect the flavor and nutritional value of the food itself while sterilization is fast and effective.
And the good closure of the can also plays an important role in long-term preservation, the bacteria inside are killed and the bacteria outside cannot come in, so there is no need to use preservatives.
| lose a lot of nutrients?
It depends on who to compare.
It is true that some vitamins with low heat tolerance will be depleted, but most of the nutrients will be retained. Daily processing of our own vegetables will also cause the loss of related nutrients.
And like the canned tomato this acidity is very high, vitamin C is very stable under acidity, even after the high temperature can also be retained in large quantities (about 10mg /100g, still higher than many fruits), to make dishes, soup base, mix pasta are very good, nutritious enough!
What are the types of canned food?
How to choose and eat?
What are the |?
Many people's impression of canned food is still stuck in the last century, think that it has few types and poor taste, please listen to a paragraph of newspaper dish name -
Chicken stew with mushrooms, braised bamboo shoots in oil, sixi balls, red braised beef, roasted bran in honey sauce, chicken curry, pork with plum vegetables, beef with sauce, lion's head, minced meat with eggplant sauce, canned chicken shredded noodles; canned pear, oranges, apples, hawthorn; canned coriander hearts, corn, mushrooms, asparagus and so on.
Simply put, everything can be canned.
How to choose and eat |?
Choice: First of all, it is definitely necessary to buy the production of regular manufacturers, and secondly, give priority to healthier canned food with relatively low sugar, oil and salt content, and then combine their specific scenes (in case of an epidemic, it is more difficult to buy anything), which food usually eats less (many friends eat less because they are too lazy to peel fruit)
Eat: Consume as soon as possible after opening. In addition, if there are conditions, those canned with heavy oil and salt can be added to the vegetables and reprocessed, such as the lion's head can be added to the vegetables to burn together, reducing the proportion of oil and salt.
