Cinnamon is a very familiar spice, especially for home chefs, this spice is an indispensable condiment when stewing meat, but today I want to tell you that this spice is not for everyone.
Be sure to put some cinnamon when stewing meat, the more the meat will be stewed, the more fragrant it will be? Be careful, these people are prone to getting sick when they eat it.
First of all, let's take you to know cinnamon:
Cinnamon bark, also known as cinnamon, was the first spice to be used by humans, and along with condiments such as ginger, it can be used not only directly in stewed meat, but also as one of the ingredients of five-spice powder, or for the extraction of cinnamon oil. In traditional Chinese medicine, cinnamon also has a certain curative effect, and it is a dual-purpose ingredient for medicine and food.
Normally, whether it is stewed meat or other cooking methods, cinnamon can play a role in removing the smell and improving the fragrance, but as mentioned above, cinnamon is also a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, which has the effect of dissipating cold in warmth, regulating qi and relieving pain.
For some people, eat less:
First of all, people with heat and dryness should eat less, which refers to the physical discomfort caused by excessive yin fire, including flushing, night sweats, easy irritability, red tongue coating, dry eyes, astringent and itchy, poor sleep quality, insomnia and irritability, upset and so on.
It is best for this group of people to eat less cinnamon, which is not only not conducive to relieving the current physical discomfort, but also may aggravate the condition. At the same time, it is best not to eat other spicy and irritating foods in the short term, such as barbecue, fried chicken, pizza, etc., as eating too much may also increase adverse reactions such as dry mouth.
A survey on the consumption of cinnamon found that some people feel dry mouth after eating cinnamon. If this is the case for you, it is recommended that you use other spices instead when stewing meat.
In addition, considering that cinnamon also has the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis to a certain extent, for women during menstruation and menopause, in order to avoid prolonging menstruation and increasing the probability of bleeding, it is best not to eat cinnamon at this stage.
There are also people who are allergic to cinnamon, if they are prone to skin redness, acne, itching, nasal congestion, runny nose, and increased sneezing after contact with cinnamon, they should not eat it anymore.
On the contrary, there are also people who are suitable for putting some cinnamon in stewed meat, that is, they belong to the group of weak cold constitution, which is prone to abdominal distention, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, palpitations, chills, loss of appetite, chest tightness, chest pain, joint pain, easy colds, paleness, acid reflux, belching and so on.
In addition to putting some cinnamon in the process of making meat, you can also use cinnamon to soak in water to drink, or use cinnamon to decoction to drink, which is a good way.
