The 5 kinds of vegetables that are not recommended to buy in summer are not only not nutritious, but also hurt the body, and they don't eat the vegetables and rice themselves.
This year, May 5 will be the beginning of summer. In the past, this time was the time when all kinds of vegetables were put on the market and put on the market, but with the development of greenhouse vegetables and preservation technology, there are many dishes that can be eaten all year round.
But have you ever noticed that you need to choose these vegetables carefully during the summer months? Not only is it lacking in nutrients, but it also has an easy effect on our body, and the greengrocer never eats these this season. There may be many people who don't notice it and don't know that it's best not to buy these vegetables in the summer.
Let me share 5 vegetables that are not recommended to be eaten in summer.
The first is turnips. Radish is called little ginseng, and as the old saying goes, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer.
Radish is suitable for eating in autumn and winter, and the radish sold in the market in summer is an out-of-season storage vegetable, and sometimes when we buy radish in summer, we will find that the inside of the radish is hollow.
This is the inside of the radish slowly deteriorating and rotting, and it is not recommended to buy it in the summer.
The second type is Chinese cabbage.
Chinese cabbage is not only easy to clean, but also tastes good, and is a well-known vegetable.
But in the summer, even if the price is cheap, I don't buy it, and the Chinese cabbage sold in the summer is generally refrigerated or grown in greenhouses. At this time, the nutritional value of Chinese cabbage is very low and it is not suitable for consumption.
The third is leeks.
Everyone knows that leeks are cut stubble after stubble. As the old saying goes, leeks stink to death dogs in June, that is, leeks in June smell wrong, no longer have the fragrance of leeks and still stink, and the taste is also very old, not delicious at all.
The best season for leeks is spring and September, and there are many new vegetables in summer, so you can choose the vegetables of the season, and leeks are not recommended to buy.
The fourth is lotus root. Lotus root has a sweet and refreshing taste, and it is a nourishing food that adults and children love to eat.
Summer is the season when lotus flowers are in full bloom, and autumn is the harvest season for lotus roots. The lotus root in summer has been stored for nearly a year, and the taste and quality are not good.
Some of the lotus roots I bought back even have black hearts and mildew, and they don't have a crisp and sweet feeling after being fried. It is recommended that friends who like to eat lotus root wow, it is best to wait a little longer.
The fifth is bok choy.
Summer is the peak period of insect activity, and the leaves of bok choy are easy to be eaten by insects out of small holes, and some pesticides need to be applied every once in a while when planting, which has an impact on our body.
We can choose some leafy greens to eat in the summer. For example, water spinach, sweet potato leaves, etc.
In my family, when cleaning leafy vegetables, they will soak them in salt water for 10 minutes to reduce pesticide residues.
