Many people say that eating takeout regularly is unhealthy, and it is better to cook it yourself. But if you have these Xi when cooking, minutes are worse than eating takeout!
1. Raw and cooked ingredients are processed on the same cutting board
Many families only have one cutting board in their kitchen, whether it's cutting vegetables, raw meat, or cooked food. This Xi is dangerous, because this mixture of raw and cooked food is prone to cross-contamination of food, which in turn causes food poisoning.
Second, I don't like to open a range hood for stir-frying
Thinking that it can save electricity or trouble, many people are not Xi to turn on the range hood when cooking and stir-frying. As everyone knows, this Xi will not only harm yourself, but also may harm your family's health.
In the process of cooking, cooking oil is heated to high temperatures, which will produce oil fumes, which contain many harmful substances that can damage the lungs and respiratory health. Relevant studies at home and abroad have pointed out that even if women never smoke cigarettes, the more often they cook and stir-fry every day, the higher the risk of lung cancer.
3. Stir-fry meat and vegetables at high temperature, and do not brush the pot after stir-frying
When people stir-fry, the higher the temperature of the oil and the longer the cooking time of the ingredients, the more toxic substances such as acrylamide will be generated. In addition, if the ingredients are fried during the stir-frying process and the pot is not thoroughly cleaned, the surface of the wok will be adhered to the residue that has been pasted, and harmful substances will continue to be generated in the next heating.
Fourth, after the fruits and vegetables are cut, soak them in water
On the one hand, if pesticides remain on fruits and vegetables, pesticides are more likely to enter the inside of vegetable leaves and melon flesh, causing people to be poisonedOn the other hand, water-soluble vitamins and some minerals in fruits and vegetables may be dissolved in water and a large amount of minerals may be lost.
5. Stir-fry a dish and add multiple types of seasonings
In order to make the ingredients look better and taste better, many people will put a variety of seasoning products at the same time when cooking a dish, such as dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, chicken essence, salt, etc. This Xi invisibly adds a lot of salt to the meal. Consuming too much high-salt food for a long time will increase the probability of people suffering from hypertension and cardiovascular disease.
