In fact, steamed bread, rice and noodles may be the best choice for people to exchange and eat alternately, so as not to get tired of a staple food. There are also subtle differences in nutrients in rice or various pasta, which may be more conducive to health. We are familiar with the saying "rice in the south and noodles in the north". In our impression, southerners prefer rice, while northerners eat steamed buns, which is quite chaotic. In fact, this is just a stereotype. There are many people who love pasta in the south, and people who are used to eating rice in the north are also good. Then the question is coming. Which is better for us to eat more rice or pasta?

In fact, rice is rice, and pasta is the food made by grinding wheat (or other grains). The main ingredients of the two are very clear, that is, carbohydrates, and there is actually little difference in nutrients, so we don't have to care too much about whether to eat steamed bread, noodles or rice today. They are the most common staple foods, so only choose what you like to eat. If we have to divide it into two parts, 100g of rice and 100g of pasta provide a little more calories, then the same amount of rice and steamed bread may give us a more "blocked" feeling and make us feel more "full". But many friends just like jiaozi's wonton, pancakes and steamed buns, so we can eat them from time to time.

In the dietary pagoda in the Dietary Guide, the recommended intake of staple food is 250~400g per day, including "coarse grains, miscellaneous beans and whole grains". The food we usually eat, such as white rice and white steamed bread, can actually be regarded as "flour rice", that is, the grain with serious loss of wheat bran components and dietary fiber and rapid digestion (blood sugar rises rapidly after meals) has good impurity removal effect, but the soaring blood sugar after meals is not good for patients with hyperglycemia and diabetes. Therefore, in order to further stabilize blood sugar and improve satiety, it is suggested that coarse grains should be mixed with flour and rice. For example, making mung bean rice and brown rice is more conducive to health. We only need to eat two or two staple foods for an average meal, and other attention can be shifted to meat, vegetables, eggs and other foods.

Pasta can also be made of flour rich in dietary fiber, such as coarse grain flour, buckwheat flour, coarse grain flour, whole wheat flour and so on. There are many corn flour steamed buns, coarse grain steamed buns, buckwheat noodles, coarse grain steamed buns and so on. In addition to the combination of thickness, you can also use potato food instead of staple food. Potato food is not only rich in carbohydrates, but also retains richer dietary fiber components, which can also be said to be "thickness combination". Therefore, in the choice of staple food, we don't have to be so single, as long as we choose what we like, combined with thickness and intake is enough.
