How to match “healthy hot pot”? This is the right way to open the hot pot!

If you want to ask what is the most popular among young people in winter, it is undoubtedly hot pot.

There are many “quintessences” of hot pot

on the Internet, such as “seven up and eight down”, “ten seconds” and “no spicy flavor”. Which of these “essences” are the true essence? How to match “healthy hot pot”?

Although many people like spicy pot, they think that no spicy is not fragrant. But from a health point of view, the general spicy pot will have a lot of oil, often eating spicy will stimulate the stomach, easily lead to stomach diseases. Hot pot soup base as far as possible to choose clear soup base or simple ingredients of soup base, such as tomato soup, pork stomach chicken soup, mushroom soup can be. Some hotpot restaurants also have pickled cabbage pot, which tastes good, but the nitrite content is high, so it is not recommended to eat more. Hot pot soup is high in purine, and friends with high uric acid should drink as little as possible. If you really like soup, try to drink it before rinsing the pot.

Sauce varies from person to person, but most sauces have more fat, so try to put as little as possible, and vinegar can be used instead. If you must dip in salty sauce, you can put a little properly, and then put more onion, garlic and coriander to season.

In the choice of ingredients, pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables.

1. Staple foods recommend coarse grains and miscellaneous beans, such as corn, sweet potatoes and yams. In terms of meat, try to choose lean meat, such as lean beef, lean mutton, steak, less fat beef, fat sheep and other fatty meat; meatballs are also fat, to eat as little as possible, you can also choose seafood ingredients, fish, shrimp slip, high-quality crab sticks can be.

2. Seafood is better than meat in terms of health. It is suggested to replace meat in hot pot with soybean products, such as tofu and dried bean curd, which can reduce the intake of saturated fat. In addition, duck blood, chicken blood and other blood products are also a good choice, its nutritional value is high, low fat, contains protein and rich iron, iron in blood products is easy to absorb.

Here I would like to remind you that when eating hot pot, you must cook the meat before eating. Many people advocate “seven up and eight down” and “ten seconds”, but the probability of louvers, brains and duck intestines is not completely cooked. There may be unkilled parasites in these half-cooked ingredients.

Vegetables are recommended to choose vegetables with high water content, such as wheat, chrysanthemum, bean sprouts, and mushrooms, such as Flammulina velutipes. But be careful, try not to cook in the pot after the meat. You can order some four-compartment pot bottoms, two of which are not used first, and save them for cooking at the end. Drinks generally choose low-sugar drinks, tea or water. Poor gastrointestinal function can choose yogurt or lactic acid drinks, if you want to drink fruit juice, it is recommended to choose coconut water
