What if the green ball is heated and turned into water?
It is best not to heat the green ball in the microwave oven, because it is easy to turn into water after a long time, and it is best to heat it in a steamer. The Youth League made cyan with wheat green juice, and now some jiaozi are also colored. However, unlike cakes, which can be made into beautiful colors by adding synthetic pigments, according to relevant regulations, rice-flour foods such as glutinous rice balls belong to the food category, and artificial pigments are not allowed, only natural pigments can be used. For example, orange dumplings use carrot juice, purple dumplings use purple potatoes and so on. Consumers can also distinguish synthetic pigments from natural pigments by color changes after heating. The color of glutinous rice balls with natural pigments will fade and deepen after heating, and the coloring power will decrease; This is not the case with synthetic pigments, and heating will not affect the brightness of colors.
Why does the green ball melt when heated?
It is another Qingming Festival, and the fragrant green group has been fragrant all over the streets. Food experts remind consumers to be cautious when buying green balls with too bright colors. In addition, it is best to eat green balls within 3 days. When heating repeatedly, plastic packaging bags (films) must be removed.
The watery green sells best-selling green balls, probably because too much pigment has been added. Food experts pointed out that there are three ways to identify green balls: first, the raw materials with strong fragrance are more reliable; Secondly, if you look at it, green is the top grade, and blue-black and translucent colors may have added too much artificial pigment. Green balls with long shelf life will not harden after a few days, and preservatives are probably added.
Experts also pointed out that many youth league products are packed in plastic films in outer packaging boxes, and consumers should pay attention to the distinction. The film made of PVC plastic will have an odor and cannot directly contact with food. Even the qualified plastic film must be removed when the green ball is repeatedly heated to avoid melting and explosion.
Four groups of people don't eat green balls.
First, old people and children are definitely not suitable for eating youth league. Because glutinous rice, the main material for making green balls, is an extremely difficult food to digest. Old people and children have poor digestive function. For them, eating green balls is undoubtedly making the digestive system worse.
Second, patients with pancreatitis and gastritis are forbidden to eat green balls, because glutinous rice in green balls will lead to the recurrence of these inflammations or the deterioration of their condition.
Third, diabetics don't eat green balls, which contain a lot of sugar. Now, the sugar content of the new green balls introduced by merchants is "increasing day by day", and eating green balls by diabetics will undoubtedly aggravate the condition.
Fourth, patients with cholecystitis and gallstones should not eat green balls, because indigestion may aggravate the condition.
Pay attention to four points when eating green balls.
First, be sure to heat it before eating. Because the glutinous rice in the green ball is easy to reverse after cooling, it is extremely unfavorable for digestion, and the nutritional structure in it will also be destroyed.
Second, it is best to eat with bamboo shoots or Malantou. Eating these foods together can speed up the digestion and nutrient absorption of the green group.
Third, never mix with fat. If the indigestible food like glutinous rice is mixed with oil, it will increase the burden on the stomach and easily cause indigestion.
Fourth, it is best to eat some foods that help digestion, such as hawthorn. Because these foods can reduce the digestive burden of glutinous rice such as green balls in the gastrointestinal tract, which is conducive to the absorption of green balls in the body.
