There are many ways to make food, such as frying, frying, boiling, frying, cooking and so on. But many people like to steam food with hot air. Adults say that steamed food is nutritious. Why do you say that? Is steamed food really more nutritious?
Steamed food takes water as the medium, the temperature is relatively low, and the nutrient loss of food is less. Compared with frying, it retains more nutrients and has higher nutritional value. Compared with other frying, smoking and frying, steamed food has lower oil content and higher nutritional density. Nowadays, many people's diets are full of energy and relatively insufficient nutrition. Steamed food has greatly improved this dietary defect. Compared with frying, frying, roasting, frying and steaming food, it uses less edible oil and relatively low energy, which helps people to control energy intake, prevent obesity and is beneficial to cardiovascular health.
In addition, the temperature is low when steaming food, and the oil in food is not easy to be oxidized too much. You can put some edible oil containing unsaturated fatty acids such as linseed oil and olive oil, which is beneficial to cardiovascular health.
It can be seen that steamed food not only has high nutritional value, but also contributes a lot to health if eaten regularly. Many people think that steamed food is tasteless and not delicious without oil. This is a cooking problem, not a food problem. For example, the most commonly eaten steamed fish, with shredded onion, shredded ginger, cooking wine to remove the fishy smell of fish, increase the flavor of fish; Soy sauce is used to enhance flavor, such as extremely fresh taste. Even if the salt is used less, the taste will not be dull, and so will other steamed vegetables.
In fact, if you are used to steaming vegetables, your tongue will become sensitive and you can feel a little taste; On the contrary, if you often eat fried, roasted, spicy and other high-oil and high-salt foods, your taste buds will become numb and your taste will become heavier and heavier. Therefore, people who often eat heavy tastes and occasionally eat steamed food will feel boring. That's the reason.
