Vegetarian chicken takes tofu skin (thousand pieces, non-oily skin) as the main material, rolls it into a round stick shape, ties it tightly and cooks it, slices it in oil, and adds seasoning to fry it until it is cooked. Can also be made into fish shape, shrimp shape and other shapes. The taste is salty and delicious, the dish is dark red, shaped like chicken, soft and tough, and delicious and mellow.
Vegetarian chicken is actually a bean product. Soybean is one of the varieties with the highest protein content in plants, and its content is about 40%, which is 4-5 times that of cereals and 2 times that of meat, eggs and fish. The amino acid composition of soybean protein is similar to that of egg and milk protein. Except methionine, other essential amino acids are rich, and it belongs to "high quality protein" in nutritional value.
Soybean peptide can lower blood pressure and prevent cholesterol from rising. Soybean lecithin can prevent cholesterol from depositing on the inner wall of blood vessels and remove its deposits, which plays an important role in preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The main components of soybean oligosaccharides are stachyose and raffinose, which are the proliferation factors of Bifidobacterium, and can promote the growth and reproduction of Bifidobacterium, mediate gastrointestinal tract, improve defecation and prevent constipation. Soybean isoflavones, also known as phytoestrogens, can make up for the deficiency of female estrogen secretion, improve skin moisture and elasticity, relieve menopausal syndrome and improve osteoporosis. Soybeans also contain more minerals and vitamins.
According to the investigation of nutrition and health status in China, the average intake of bean products is lower than the recommended intake of China residents' dietary pagoda. Article 3 of the 20 16 version of Dietary Guidelines for China residents suggests eating more fruits and vegetables, milk and soybeans. Soybean and its products are very rich in nutritional value and also play an important health care role in our daily diet. Eating more is certainly good for your health, but you need to pay attention to a balanced diet. Meat, milk and vegetables are served every day. The content of methionine in protein of eggs and meat is higher, but soybean is slightly insufficient. Meat is rich in iron and its absorption rate is higher than that of soybean. Milk contains more calcium than soybeans. Vegetables can provide quite a lot of minerals and vitamins to make up for the deficiency of some minerals and vitamins in soybeans, such as vitamin A, folic acid and magnesium.
"There is no unreasonable food, only unreasonable diet", that is to say, no food can meet all the needs of the human body, and only a variety of foods can reasonably meet the needs.
