So much for the practice of bighead fish. Many people don't know much about the benefits of eating bighead fish. Next, let's learn about the edible value of bighead fish.
What are the benefits of eating bighead fish?
1, bighead fish is rich in unsaturated fatty acids.
This unsaturated fatty acid is mainly found in fish oil, which is why there are so many cod liver oil products on the market. Unsaturated fatty acids are mainly good for people's brains, especially for children. Eating more unsaturated fatty acids can improve brain function and thus enhance intelligence. The fish oil of bighead fish is thick and rich in unsaturated fatty acids, so it has high nutritional value. This nutritional value is mainly reflected by lecithin in bighead fish. Lecithin is an essential element for the development of brain cells, and it is an amino acid absorbed by human brain. The special protein contained in it has a great influence on children's intellectual development.
2. Bighead fish is rich in collagen.
Everyone is familiar with collagen, which can delay the aging of the body and has a good effect in repairing body cells and tissues. The meat under the gill of bighead fish is transparent and packed in glue, which is rich in collagen, which is why many people like to eat the head of bighead fish. The eyes of bighead fish are also the essence. As the saying goes, you can make up what you eat. Although this sentence may not be completely correct, it also has some truth. That is to say, eating fish eyes has a good effect on the development and brightness of children's eyes.
3, bighead fish contains blood-enriching nutrients.
The roe of bighead fish is also a kind of nutrient-rich substance, which has the functions of enriching blood, nourishing liver and kidney. If eaten for a long time, it can also treat malnutrition of children. In fact, malnutrition is not uncommon among children in China, but it is often not found and paid attention to, so you can eat more bighead fish.
When eating fish, you should pay attention to many things. The following small series will specifically tell you what to pay attention to when eating fish. Let's learn about it together.
Precautions for eating fish
Fish is too red and white to eat. Because of different species of fish, there are red-fleshed fish like tuna and white-fleshed fish like hairtail, but if the color of fish is too bright red or bright white, it is likely to be the "credit" of dyes.
Pick an "eight-point" size. The size of a fish determines its taste and safety. Too small, the fish has not yet grown up and matured, the meat is not tender enough, and the fishbones will appear extra. Too big means that the fish is old, the meat is rough, and many harmful substances may be accumulated in the body. Therefore, it is more appropriate to buy fish with a size of about "eight minutes", for example, 1 kg and a half for carp and Wuchang fish, 0.5 kg ~ 1 kg for crucian carp and 4~5 kg for grass carp.
Don't buy those with muddy eyes and gray gills. When buying "chilled fish", you should first observe its eyes and gills. Fresh fish have full eyeballs, clear corneas and bright gills. Secondly, the eyeball of fresh fish is not full, the cornea is wrinkled and slightly turbid, and sometimes the bleeding in the eye is red, and the gills are dark and grayish red or grayish purple. The eyeball of rotten fish collapses or shrivels, the cornea shrinks or breaks, and the gills are brown or grayish white.
Kill the live fish now and put it before eating. The quality of freshly slaughtered fish is not the best, because fish will have a process of "acid discharge" and it will take some time to be more delicious. Small fish such as grass carp and silver carp should be refrigerated immediately and cooked after 2 hours; Large fish need to be refrigerated for more than 2 hours.
Sashimi should be frozen before eating. There may be parasites in sashimi, which have poor resistance to heat and low temperature, and can be killed after being frozen for 24 hours at MINUS 20℃, but the ice under the plate of sashimi can't kill parasites at all. Therefore, fish can only be eaten raw if the source of raw materials is assured enough.
Don't eat salted food. Aquatic products may contain a lot of nitrite. During the drying or curing process, part of protein will decompose to produce amines, which will combine with nitrite to form nitrosamines, which has a certain cancer risk.
Conclusion: Fish is still popular in life. Eating bighead fish regularly can also help us delay aging and improve brain function. When eating fish, we should pay attention to selecting some fish with full and bright eyeballs, and avoid buying fish with gray gills and too big heads. Fresh fish should be put aside before eating.
