Matters needing attention in eating Christmas dinner
Some people like to chat. Suction nozzle is neither an advantage nor a disadvantage when no one is around. This is just a habit. But when a table was full of people, he stuffed another piece of braised pork into his mouth and began to slurp loudly for a long time until the meat was completely chewed and slipped into the long esophagus. When other people's ears are idle, he picks up a piece of sweet and sour hairtail-the food moves in his mouth and occasionally makes a noise. This is not surprising, but it is harmful to form habits.
Some people like to "spin fast". Now there are turntables around eating, and the turntables naturally turn, but whoever turns and in which direction, it is somewhat "head-on". I wonder if there are any special rules. If not, in my opinion, whoever turns the turntable should turn slowly like the slow three step on the dance floor. Which direction should I turn? Actually clockwise is enough. If there are elders and seniors at the dinner party, as a sign of respect, a sweet and sour pork chop has just been served, and the waiter will give it to the elders or respected people first. After he enjoys it, others can "slow three".
Some people don't like to use public chopsticks. Public chopsticks are a kind of civilization. Some public chopsticks are placed directly by the waiter on the side of the dish, while others are placed next to the dish, standing respectfully like an elegant waiter, picking them up when you want to pick them up, and putting them back after eating. Of course, there is a waiter next to everyone for a bigger meal, so that everyone will have one and will not disturb the guests. Naturally, it is divided with public chopsticks.
Rice should be eaten at every meal, and a big meal should be eaten every year. You can't see through a meal, but if you eat too much, human nature will be revealed. Be careful about eating and paparazzi.
The nutrition of Christmas diet is ingenious.
Clever collocation of varieties
Selection of dishes and arrangement of holiday diet. On the premise of paying attention to color, fragrance, taste and shape, the combination of meat, cold, hot, coarse, refined, dry and thin can stimulate people's appetite and maintain nutritional balance and acid-base balance. As far as the taste of hot and cold dishes is concerned, not only sweet, salty and skillful, but also hemp, spicy, sour and bitter, so as to have a good appetite. The combination of thick and thin is to eat some coarse grains and foods rich in fiber to help digestion. Lean collocation mainly refers to the types of staple foods, including rice, steamed bread, big cakes, steamed buns, jiaozi, Yuanxiao, rice cakes and so on. Porridge, soup, sweet drink, etc. It should also be changed in varieties and tastes.
Fat, thin and skillful
Festive meat dishes should be few and refined, with fat and thin collocation, mainly thin. The taste should be light, choose beef rabbit meat, pigeon meat, pork, chicken, duck and goose feet, and seafood and fish that are usually eaten less. The production of fish and meat should be mainly steamed, with less frying and barbecue.
Snacks Qiao
The three main meals in the festival are mostly greasy food. Therefore, the characteristics of snacks should be appetizing, regulating qi, relieving flatulence, reducing fire and eliminating dryness. For example, you can eat apples, pears and bananas about two hours after meals to stimulate appetite and relieve constipation. Eat less snacks such as peanuts, melon seeds and candy; There are oranges and so on. You'd better not eat it. In addition, such as plum, hawthorn slices, mints, etc. can be tasted moderately.
Clever separation of alcohol and tobacco
Every time I miss my relatives during the festive season, I have to drink. Moderate drinking can promote blood circulation and accelerate metabolism, but you must not drink too much and get drunk. Smoking a lot, especially when drinking, is very harmful to the body. Therefore, during the festival, don't smoke on the banquet table, avoid smoking and drinking tea, so as not to infringe on the liver, stomach and lungs of the human body at the same time.
Pay attention to nutrition labels when shopping.
When you decide on the menu, you should start buying it. Remember never to buy on an empty stomach, lest you buy a bunch of food that is not on the menu. It is best to use fresh fruits and vegetables as the main ingredients and avoid buying snacks and fast food. Remember to read the nutrition label on the package carefully, and choose 1/3 (one gram of fat =9 calories) for each food, so as to avoid buying processed foods. Try to choose low-fat food, not whole fat. In this way, you can take the first step for your diet and keep excess fat away from you!
Stir-fry less when cooking.
It is best not to touch the pot when cooking food, because it can reduce the consumption of cooking oil; At the same time, avoid frying or frying, roast or steam instead, and reduce excessive oil being eaten into the stomach; There are also sauces and seasonings that can be used as little as possible, and spices can be used instead; Egg products can replace the whole egg with two kinds of protein; The skin of meat can be removed before cooking, because the cortex usually contains more fat. Finally, remember not to prepare more than you need, or you will have to eat it all because cooking is too difficult!
