1. Mutton stew is the most nutritious

There are many ways to cook mutton. According to ancient books, there were more than ten kinds in the Yuan Dynasty; in modern times, the most complete book "** * In "The Whole Sheep Recipe", *** records 280 ways to cook mutton. If divided by category, they mainly include steaming, boiling, frying, stir-frying, smoking, stewing, simmering, rinsing, mixing, frying, etc. Among so many methods, which one is better? The reporter interviewed Mr. Yang, a chef with many years of catering experience.

According to Mr. Yang, stewed mutton is the most common and the best way to eat it. Its biggest advantage is that it can eat both meat and soup. Boiled meat soup is very nutritious and is a good way to nourish the body. Moreover, after the mutton is stewed, it becomes more cooked, tender and easy to digest. If suitable Chinese medicine or nutritionally complementary foods are added to the stew, the nourishing effect will be even greater. Such as angelica mutton soup, wolfberry mutton soup, astragalus mutton soup, mutton radish soup, mutton tofu soup, pig trotters and mutton soup all fall into this category. In winter, many people like to eat pot mutton, which is also a kind of mutton stew. But don't be too impatient when eating. Be sure to stew the meat until it is thoroughly cooked. Otherwise, the butyric acid and Clostridium in raw mutton will not be easily digested and absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, which will cause weakness in the limbs after eating.

Mr. Yang said that kebabs were originally a local snack in Xinjiang. Fresh mutton is cut into thumb-sized slices, skewered on an iron skewer, dipped in seasonings, and grilled on the stove. Roast lamb is delicious. It is best to use fresh lamb when roasting, not frozen. In this way, there is less nutrient loss and it is easy to digest. Similar methods include roasted whole lamb, fried barbecue, charcoal grilled lamb legs, etc.

In addition, braised mutton can also maintain the original flavor of mutton. Braised mutton is the most common method. Shabu-shabu mutton is fresh and tender, and the active nutrients in the mutton can be better preserved. However, the rinsing time should not be too short, otherwise the bacteria and parasite eggs in the meat slices cannot be completely killed. Fried mutton is fresh and delicious, but the nutritional content of mutton is relatively large, and it contains high calories. Fried foods are also prone to produce carcinogens such as phenylpropylpyrene, so it is best to eat less.

2. Shrimp is rich in nutritional value. It contains a lot of fat, trace elements (phosphorus, zinc, calcium, iron, etc.) and amino acids. It also contains hormones, which help to nourish the kidneys and strengthen yang. In the West, some people soak shrimps in brandy to aphrodisiac. In view of this, it is not difficult to understand why shrimps are indispensable in Fuyang. But there is one thing to note: shrimp is undoubtedly effective for those with kidney yang deficiency, but those with yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity should not eat more.

3. Loach contains a variety of nutrients, including protein, sugar, minerals (calcium, phosphorus, iron) and vitamins (VB, VA, VC), which are higher than those of ordinary fish and shrimp, and have lower fat content. It has less cholesterol and contains unsaturated fatty acids such as carbopentenoic acid, which helps the body resist vascular aging.

4. People pay attention to nourishing foods in winter and summer supplements in summer. Among river fresh food, there is a saying that "eel is the most nourishing food in summer". Because after foraging for food and health in spring, eel becomes round and plump in summer, with tender and delicious meat and rich nutrition. It not only tastes good, but also has nourishing functions for people with various physical conditions. Therefore, there is also a folk saying of "summer eel versus ginseng" It is said that this is the folk praise of eel in terms of nourishing diet.
