Tomato skin contains a lot of lycopene, so it is best not to abandon the skin when eating. Tomato belongs to solanaceae fruit, and its pesticide residue is the least in all kinds of vegetables, so there is no need to worry too much about pesticide residue. Moreover, because the peel of tomato is very thin, it has little effect on the release of lycopene from pulp when it is processed or eaten.
2 How to peel tomatoes? Insert a fork into the bottom of tomatoes and bake them on the fire for about 10 second, and the skins of tomatoes will crack. After cooling for a few seconds, tear off the skin by hand, and the torn skin is complete.
(Roasting is the most convenient method which takes the shortest time and peels off the skin, in my opinion, among the three methods! ! ! )
Pour water into the boiling pot, add tomatoes and cook for about 20 seconds after the fire boils. Turn the tomatoes over with a spoon constantly so that all parts of the tomatoes can be scalded by boiling water. Or put more water in the pot without tomatoes.
After taking it out, cool it for one minute, and then tear off the skin, but the hands are still slightly hot and not easy to hold. In the process of peeling, the tomatoes are a little slippery.
(Boiling, although the time required is not too long, but the time for boiling water, cooking tomatoes and cooling time, at least 5 minutes. Moreover, it also wasted a pot of water and gas. Although the money is not much, it may not be a scary figure over time. )
Scraping with a spoon is also a method. The choice of spoon is more important. The edge of spoon should not be too thin or too thick. For example, with a tin spoon, tomatoes are easy to break; But if you use a white porcelain spoon for drinking soup, the edge of the spoon is too smooth and laborious. In my opinion, stainless steel spoons and plastic spoons are good choices.
(scrape: this method seems to be the simplest compared with the above two methods, but for me, it is the most laborious of the three methods. When scraping, we should grasp the strength well. If scraping is too light, the skin and meat of tomatoes will not be separated. If scraping is too strong, it will be more troublesome when tearing. Moreover, where you can't scrape, when you tear it, you have to dig a little with your nails, which is very laborious. )
3 What to pay attention to when eating tomatoes to lose weight 1, tomatoes are cold, and those who have stomach cold should not eat raw tomatoes.
2. Women who have a history of dysmenorrhea during menstruation should not eat.
3. It is not suitable to eat green tomatoes raw, because the content of toxic substance Lycopene in immature tomatoes is high, which will make people dizzy, nausea and vomiting after eating raw, and even kill them in severe cases.
4. Don't cook for a long time. A little vinegar when cooking can destroy the harmful substance lycopene.
5, acute enteritis, bacillary dysentery and ulcer patients should not eat.
