When nutritionists analyze the heat of hot pot, they divide it into three parts: soup base, hot pot material and dipping sauce.
Soup base: The oil slick generated from the soup base can be removed with a spoon, or it can be absorbed by wrapping ice cubes with gauze. In addition, you can use vegetarian soup base, that is, use vegetarian materials such as corn, Chinese cabbage, mushrooms and soybean sprouts to cook. The calories will be low, and the delicious food can't be eaten!
Hotpot ingredients: Because of the different types of hot pot, the ingredients used in hot pot are also very different, but they can generally be divided into two categories: fresh and processed products. Fresh food is low in calories because it contains no extra fat. In addition, fried fresh food, such as fish head in casserole, contains a lot of calories! Moreover, clams, shrimps, etc. The oil content of seafood will be less than that of the same volume of meat, so it can be considered to replace meat. In terms of vegetables, although the calories are not high, some whole grains that are easily mistaken for vegetables should pay special attention. For example, the calories of corn and taro are quite amazing.
Dip: A proper amount of dip can really add points to the hot pot, but if the salt in the dip is high, such as soy sauce, vinegar and Chili sauce, you must be careful. In addition, the oil content of some dipping sauces is also quite amazing, such as sand tea sauce, sesame sauce, Chili sauce, sesame oil and so on. And the heat will not be lost to the staple food. Nutritionists strongly recommend natural dipping sauce, which is delicious and healthy, such as soy sauce, pepper, coriander, chopped green onion dipped in soy sauce, mustard sauce and so on. These are all good choices.
