The role of pueraria lobata

Pueraria lobata contains 12% flavonoids, such as puerarin, daidzein, peanut essence and other nutrients, as well as protein, amino acids, sugar, iron, calcium, copper, selenium and other essential minerals. It is a valuable tonic suitable for all ages and has the reputation of "thousand-year ginseng". As early as the Han Dynasty, there was a famous prescription "Gegen Decoction" in Zhang Zhongjing's Treatise on Febrile Diseases, which is still an important prescription to relieve exterior syndrome. "Materia Medica Justice" pointed out that Pueraria lobata "can best play the spleen and stomach to clear yang". Pueraria lobata is sweet and slightly pungent, fragrant and cool, and enters the spleen and stomach. It has the effects of relieving muscle, promoting yang, penetrating rash, relieving fever and promoting fluid production. Treat diarrhea due to spleen deficiency, fever and thirst, and mainly treat exogenous fever, severe pain in head and neck, measles, thirst due to febrile diseases, alcoholism, chest obstruction and heartache. Regular consumption of Ge Fen can regulate human body function, enhance physical fitness, improve the body's disease resistance, resist aging, prolong life and keep youthful vitality forever. Modern medical research shows that pueraria flavonoids have anticancer and estrogen-like effects, and can promote women's beauty, especially for middle-aged women and menopausal women.

Practice skills of spareribs

1. Pork should not be soaked in water for a long time; When cutting fat meat, you can soak the fat meat in cold water first, then put it on the chopping board, and sprinkle some cold water while cutting, which saves labor and prevents the fat meat from slipping off and sticking to the chopping board.

2. Do not wash pork with hot water before cooking, because pork contains a myoglobin substance, which is easily dissolved in water above 15 degrees Celsius. If soaked in hot water, it will lose a lot of nutrients and taste bad.

Pork should be cooked, because sometimes there are parasites in pork. If eaten raw or not adequately conditioned, hookworms may be parasitic in the liver or brain.
