Hello everyone, I am Bao Mama private room 7788, I am glad that you clicked on this article. Where life does not meet, seeing is fate. I am an office worker and a mother, taking turns between work and the stove every day, tired and happy. If you, like me, don't know what to tinker with at every meal, then follow me and we'll talk and discuss.
After winter, the diet of everyone in the family is the thing I pay the most attention to. Because it is cold, the natural reaction will be to wear more clothes; when hungry, they will also go to find something to eat. What to eat, cold, hot, spicy, greasy or something else? Adults can deal with it casually, but our cute children can't just do it, after all, when they grow up, they can eat well to lay a good foundation and thrive.
When I was a child, my family was poor and couldn't afford to eat big fish and meat. In the winter, the vegetable field is full of turnips, cabbage, artemisia, spinach, etc., and they are eaten every day. In order to make us not feel tired of eating, my mother changes the pattern of these dishes every day. One of the dishes she often cooked was that she didn't think it was special at the time, it was all produced by her own family, and now it seems that it is no worse than the taste of mountains and treasures.
Yam spleen, spinach is rich in carotene, calcium, potassium and other trace elements, not to mention the nutritional value of eggs. Together, the three may seem inconspicuous, but they are a nutritious dish. Spinach is a seasonal dish in winter, yam eggs can be eaten all year round, each ingredient is economical and affordable, a cost of less than 3 yuan. Today I will share the practice, I hope you like it.
Why do I need blanching water to eat spinach?
Spinach is known to be bitter when eaten directly, which is caused by the large amount of oxalic acid it contains. After we eat oxalic acid, it will react with trace elements such as calcium and magnesium in our body to form a substance called calcium oxalate, which affects our digestion. Oxalic acid is easily soluble in water, we blanch it, you can blanch a large part, so that the astringency is greatly reduced.
