First, millet and jujube porridge
Main effects: invigorating spleen and moistening rashness, calming the heart and calming the nerves, treating insomnia, dreaminess, unpleasant appetite and dry stool.
Practice: The first ingredient we need to use is jujube, which is washed and put aside, and then fired to make porridge. Here, by the way, we can also review some points that need attention in making porridge mentioned in our program before. For example, we should add millet after the water is completely boiled. This will not only cook porridge faster, but also never paste the bottom of the pot. Another thing is to remind you to avoid using pressure cooker to make millet porridge, because the particles of millet are relatively broken, which is easy to block the valve of pressure cooker, thus causing some safety hazards. Then put jujube in and cook it with porridge. Jujube is also very comprehensive in nutrients, which not only has sedative, hypnotic and antihypertensive effects, but also can delay aging, enhance the body's resistance and maintain skin elasticity. When the dates are boiled, there will be a layer of foam on them, and then we will skim off the foam and remove the impurities. Just boil it on a small fire. If you are worried about overflowing the pot, you can order a little cooking oil.
It will be better to add some honey to this jujube millet porridge before drinking. In addition to the main sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, honey is also rich in essential vitamins, essential amino acids and trace elements. And it can make the taste of porridge more delicious. But what I want to remind you here is that you must put the porridge when it is not so hot before adding honey, because if the temperature of porridge is too high, it will destroy the nutrients contained in honey.
Second, millet yam porridge
Main effects: strengthening the spleen to stop diarrhea, promoting digestion and guiding stagnation. At the same time, it is also suitable for children with spleen and stomach weakness and indigestion.
Practice: The ingredients needed to make this porridge are sweet potato and yam, and we need to cut them into pieces separately. When cutting yam, one's fingers itch easily. Here, we can also review the tips we taught in the previous program. The first one is to soak your hands in diluted vinegar before cutting. This way, you won't feel itchy when you cut yam. Another way is to put your hand on the burning stove and bake it with fire when you feel itchy after cutting the yam, just be careful not to burn your hands.
After the millet is cooked, you can put the sweet potato and yam in it. The sweet potato contains dietary fiber, carotene, vitamins A, B, C and E, and potassium, iron, copper, calcium and other trace elements 10. If you eat it regularly, it is very good for your health. However, I would like to remind you here that no matter which way you cook the sweet potato, you must cook it thoroughly before eating it.
Yam is even more nutritious. Besides its rich nutrients, the most important thing is that it is a very good diet food. It provides a large amount of mucin, a mixture of polysaccharide and protein, which can keep the elasticity of blood vessels, prevent the premature occurrence of atherosclerosis, reduce subcutaneous fat deposition and avoid obesity.
According to experience, it takes about two and a half fingers to cook in a rice cooker, which is more suitable for cooking. If you want to be thicker, you can have about two fingers.
It is estimated that the ratio is about 3: 1.
