This bowl of cool weather and warm stomach is just right

        Having a bowl of soup in the cool autumn and winter of November is the most comfortable way to get through the scorching summer. In Chinese culinary culture, "soup" is not just a dish, but also has the effect of maintaining health. Whether it's pot food, hot soup Lamian Noodles or health preserving Congee, everything can warm the stomach and heart. This issue of "Gourmet Column" introduces the knowledge of soup and takes you to taste cleverly.

        When to drink soup: When to drink soup, it is important to consider the timing and portion size. According to nutritionists, if there are special ethnic groups with weak gastrointestinal function or deviation in appetite, drinking a "small" bowl of soup before meals can increase appetite. It is important to remember that the portion size should not be too large; As for the general population, drinking soup before meals can increase satiety. Drinking soup first, ordering dishes, and then eating meat and starch staples is a quite healthy eating order.

        Taboos for drinking soup: Less oil and salt are the main principles for drinking soup, especially for hypertensive patients who should pay attention to salt content; For those who suffer from gout, broth, fish soup, seafood soup, etc. with high content of prin should be more moderate; For people with poor gastrointestinal function and poor appetite, it is recommended to remove the floating oil on the surface before drinking soup to avoid increasing the difficulty of digestion due to fat.

        Soup temperature: Many people like to drink hot soup, but the tolerance range of the human digestive tract mucosa is about 60 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is too high, it can easily damage the mucosa and increase the probability of pathological changes. To protect the esophagus, it is recommended to cool down before consumption.

        Ingredients in the soup: Some people are accustomed to soaking rice in the soup and eating it together, which can easily cause them to neglect chewing and increase the burden of stomach digestion; Some people believe that nutrients are all boiled into soup, so they only drink soup without eating ingredients. In fact, the ingredients in the soup also have nutrients, but they should be chewed thoroughly when consumed.

                Seeing this, do you really want a bowl of warm hoops soup, but are you too lazy to wash your hands and make soup yourself? Welcome to Far Eastern Department Stores to find soup and Congee, as well as take out kits for reference!
