Are fresh fruits and vegetables good, or are sun-dried fruits and vegetables good?

If you only pursue nutrient abundance, of course, the fresher the nutrients left, the more nutrients you have, and you are not tired of eating. In particular, some special ingredients, the time of picking and the degree of freshness are inversely proportional: picked immediately and eaten, the taste is excellent, and with the passage of time, the quality is getting worse and worse. For example: bamboo shoots, mushrooms.

However, nothing is absolute, and other ingredients must be exposed to the sun and remove the moisture before they can turn around gorgeously, such as: dried shiitake mushrooms are more fragrant than fresh shiitake mushrooms; dried cowpeas are softer than fresh cowpeas. Dried vegetables have a unique taste, and we can't give up our love for it, even if the preservation technology can make the vegetables fresh and cute for a long time.

The production of dried vegetables is not complicated, fresh vegetables are rolled in boiling water, the raw taste is cut off, and the exposure to the sun can lose moisture. Many vegetables are not required to blanch this process, directly drying, simple to zero difficulty.

The emergence of dried vegetables can be regarded as the proud work of the ancients who inadvertently planted willows. In the past few years, dried vegetables were prepared for the occasional need when the green and yellow were not picked up, which was a last resort. Who expected to unintentionally achieve a different scenery on the table.

Fresh vegetables are crispy, while dry goods are more chewy. Take cowpeas as an example: fresh cowpeas have a faint fragrance, directly fried slightly sweet, just right. If you take fresh cowpea roast meat, then you must master the heat, otherwise the cowpea is soft and rotten, it is not good to look at, it is not delicious, and it is a pity to waste ingredients. And dried cowpeas, the skin is thick and thick, the most resistant to burning, you must be accompanied by meat early to burn into the taste, burn out soft. Braised with tempeh, it is even more flavorful.
