First, zongzi is not cooked enough to eat.
Looking at the fragrant zongzi under the nose, the curling smoke and the fragrance of zongzi leaves make people want to "eat it while it is hot". As we all know, zongzi can only be really cooked if it is cooked slowly with a small fire, while uncooked zongzi not only tastes bad, but also is extremely difficult to digest, which puts a great load on people's stomach.
Second, don't eat zongzi too fast and too much.
Every year, people, especially the elderly and children, suffer from indigestion or even suffocation because they eat zongzi too fast or too much. Because of poor digestion, it is very easy to suffer great physical and mental harm because of eating too fast or too much. Jiajiafu Food Company reminds you that when eating zongzi, it is best to drink tea, chew slowly and drink tea at the same time, which is helpful for swallowing and digestion. Moreover, eat less at a time, because zongzi.
Third, you can't eat jiaozi that has been stored for a long time.
Self-made zongzi has not been vacuum-treated, and its shelf life is extremely short. If the weather is hot, you'd better eat it in time and keep it in the refrigerator in case it's not possible, but you'd better eat it within 4 days and cook it again, otherwise it will be hard and have no taste of zongzi at all. Of course, if you plan to store it for a long time, you can choose vacuum-packed zongzi, and the shelf life is generally 180 days.
Four, the following three kinds of people should not eat zongzi.
1 Patients with cardiovascular diseases People with hypertension, hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease eat too much, which can increase blood viscosity, affect blood circulation, increase the burden on the heart and the degree of ischemia, and induce angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.
2, patients with gastrointestinal diseases: steamed dumplings will release a gelatinous substance, which will increase the load of digestive enzymes after eating. The glutinous rice in zongzi is warm and stagnant, and contains many and long plant fibers. Eating too much will increase the burden on the stomach. If patients with stomach disease and duodenal ulcer are greedy for zongzi, it is likely to cause perforation and bleeding of ulcer and aggravate the condition.
3. Diabetic patients: there are often red dates and red bean paste in zongzi, which have high sugar content and are generally mixed with sugar. If it is not controlled, it will damage the function of islet, make the patient's blood sugar and urine sugar rise rapidly, aggravate the condition, and even appear coma and poisoning. If not rescued in time, it will be life-threatening. Therefore, the famous food reminds you that the above people must not eat casually. If you really want to eat, try to eat less.
5. On the eve of Dragon Boat Festival, remind everyone what to pay attention to when eating zongzi, so that everyone has no health burden during the festival:
1. Traditional zongzi can be roughly divided into southern zongzi or northern zongzi. The difference between the two is that the southern rice dumplings are made by directly wrapping glutinous rice into the leaves of rice dumplings without frying and steaming them in a steamer. In the north, glutinous rice is first fried in oil, then wrapped in stuffed leaves and boiled directly. Comparatively speaking, southern zongzi is a healthier choice.
2. Glutinous rice is a sugary cereal root. If you eat too much, your blood sugar will also rise, so you need to pay more attention. And glutinous rice is amylopectin, which is not easy to digest. For girls' fist-sized zongzi, it is suggested that the daily intake should not exceed two, so as not to cause gastrointestinal discomfort, such as abdominal distension, constipation, indigestion and even acute gastroenteritis.
3. Selection of ingredients: Try to use lean meat or dried tofu instead of high-fat pork belly or fat minced meat. Protein has the same value, but it can avoid unnecessary oil intake. Salted egg yolk is high in cholesterol and sodium, so it is recommended not to use it as much as possible. Dried fragrant rice, pickled vegetables, bamboo shoots or konjac diced are used as main materials. The increase of fiber content can delay the rise of blood sugar. Nuts, chestnuts or peanuts contain vitamin E, but because of their high oil and calories, it is recommended to use them with flavor. The high content of saturated fatty acids in lard easily increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. It is suggested to reduce the high-oil frying of fillings and try to improve the taste with Toona sinensis. Many zongzi sold in the market are mainly five-grain rice, and the fiber content of five-grain rice is about four times that of ordinary glutinous rice. Choosing rice dumplings can add points to health and blood sugar stability.
Generally, Zongzi is the staple food of about 3-5 servings, which can replace the staple food of a meal. It is suggested to match 1-2 bowls of dried bitter melon soup or kelp tofu soup, supplemented by proper amount of eggs, beans, fish and enough vegetables to achieve the goal of balanced nutrition.
5. The choice of condiments, such as soy sauce, Chili sauce or sweet and spicy sauce, has higher sodium content. For patients with hypertension, heart disease or kidney disease, it is easy to lead to an increase in blood pressure and increase the burden on the kidneys. It is recommended to eat a small amount or dilute it with water before use.
Healthy chat
As the Dragon Boat Festival approaches, many friends don't pay much attention to the packaging problem when buying zongzi in the market, which is a serious problem. At present, there are countless festival foods such as zongzi and cakes on the market, but not many products have passed the inspection by the quality supervision department, especially the "three noes" products produced and sold by self-employed households and some manual workshops, with poor manufacturing conditions and unknown ingredients and quality.
