what are the advantages of the most "southern" fruit, making it the C position in the summer fruit shop?
when summer comes, the air is full of sour and sweet aura. From Yunnan to Zhejiang, from southwest to southeast, from the Chaoshan coastal area to the mountainous area of Xiangxi, Hunan, there is another purple shadow in the C position of the fruit supermarket. For such a special food, since ancient times, most literati have left many ink pens for it. Nowadays, with the rainy season coming, this kind of most "southern" fruits and vegetables also appear-Myrica rubra!
How delicious is Myrica rubra that doesn't want to cross the Yangtze River? From mid-April to July, the appreciation period of Yangmei is only two months, which is why Yangmei is so "unusual". As the saying goes: things are scarce.
Myrica rubra enjoys such a short-lived delicacy that it spreads all over many corners of the southern region. At this time, it tastes fragrant, the channel is soft and waxy, and the meat is thick and firm, sweet and sour. Because of this special delicacy, even Su Dongpo once praised: "Mangoes in Fujian and Guangdong, red grapes in Liangzhou, are not as good as bayberry in wuyue". A small waxberry actually has a lot of nutritional value. First, it enhances the digestive function. < P > The waxberry contains rich citric acid and its fruit acid skin-changing ingredients, which can strengthen the stomach, promote fluid production and quench thirst. If the digestive function is reduced, you can eat some bayberry properly. This organic substance in bayberry can promote the metabolism of digestive enzymes and has the effect of improving digestive function. In addition, if there is a loss of appetite, you can also eat a few bayberries moderately. Myrica rubra contains a lot of organic matter and vitamins, which has the practical effect of strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach. Second, detoxification and beauty
The content of vitamin C contained in Myrica rubra is very substantial. This vitamin belongs to antioxidants, which can prevent skin aging and also have the effect of freckle and whitening. Myrica rubra also contains a lot of fiber active ingredients, which can promote the rapid discharge of some metabolites, lipids and toxic substances in the body, and has various practical effects such as detoxification and beauty care. Third, lowering blood fat and lowering blood pressure < P > The zinc contained in Myrica rubra is particularly rich and colorful, and 1 grams of Myrica rubra contains 1mg of zinc. These effective components can keep the balance of sodium and potassium in capillaries, promote excessive sodium to be discharged from the body, and have the function of relieving capillary pressure and lowering blood pressure. Moreover, the gum Arabic and fiber contained in Myrica rubra can promote lipid metabolism in capillaries and have the effect of reducing blood lipid. Can I eat the bugs of Yangmei?
some people find that the bayberry they bought usually has some bugs, and they are worried that they will get sick after eating it. But in fact, Myrica rubra does have white bugs, which are generally called "fruit flies". You know, fruit flies usually feed on fruits, pure honey, etc. After entering the breeding season, they will lay eggs on the surface of bayberry.
When the eggs are bred into juveniles, they will get into the fruit of Myrica rubra and feed on the fruit of Myrica rubra. When the juvenile worms develop, they will turn into fruit flies and fly away, and there will always be some bugs on the appearance of bayberry. Drosophila larvae do not contain germs, which is harmless to the body, so don't worry too much.
I really care. Why not try soaking it in salt water? Soak Myrica rubra in high-concentration salt water for 3 minutes, then rinse it completely with cold water, and all the larvae can be removed, while the usual cold water soaking or water washing is actually not very effective. Naturally, if you buy a lot of bayberry at one time, why not go to the freezer as soon as possible after soaking, which can increase its shelf life.
soaking bayberry in salt water has another benefit-it makes this sour and sweet bayberry more salty and not bitter. In fact, it is not necessary to use the vegetable and fruit cleaning powder or raw flour to clean bayberry, and it may continue to destroy some flavors of bayberry. Yangmei, why does it fade when washed?
Many people find that the bayberry they just bought is red or grayish black after being soaked in water. But in fact, bayberry except milky bayberry contains water-soluble proanthocyanidins. As long as bayberry is perfect to a certain extent, the juice will flow out easily and the water will be dyed red.
For black water, you should know that melanin is usually insoluble in water, so you must be careful if you find that it turns black after making tea. In addition, when buying Yangmei, why not look at the fruit basket? If you find that the red is everywhere next to it, and Yangmei is easy to be soft and smelly, it shows that Yangmei is likely to be left for a long time and may not be fresh. At this time, I suggest you don't buy well!
