On that street corner in our town, there was a sausage stall, which was a mecca for check-ins. Imagine a golden roasted sausage sizzling on an iron plate, surrounded by crowds of people waiting to satisfy their cravings. The proprietress is also very good at selling - three pieces in a string, the taste is authentic! "It's really attractive, I look at the delicious grilled sausages on the stall and lick my chapped lips.
But this is a beautiful thing that has caused quite a lot of controversy in my family. My wife said that the street food was unhygienic and questioned the quality of the meat in the sausage. And I, naturally, am a die-hard fan, and I think this snack can best reflect the authentic style of our streets and alleys. I don't know how many times we have quarreled because of this intestine, and when it comes to grilled sausages at home, the atmosphere becomes tense. After this quarrel, my wife even reported the incident to the children as a case. The discussion was in full swing, but the children were clearly standing in line. My son thinks I'm just an old stubborn, pure appetite for oil and water, and no regard for health. The daughter thinks that her mother is too worried, and she thinks it is a good way to relieve stress. The "war" of this family collision seems to have started because of the three-dollar roast sausage on the side of the road.
But believe it or not, the amount of "real meat" in these grilled sausages will definitely surprise you! Too much attention or value this little street sausage because I don't know much about it. Today, I'm going to reveal the secret, what is the secret behind this grilled sausage?
First of all, we have to figure out that the grilled sausages that are set up on the street are actually what we often call ham sausages. You may wonder if it is "intestines", could it be "fake meat" filled with unknown substances? Don't worry, according to national standards, real ham sausage sausage meat is the main ingredient, but it is not just a casual can be called ham sausage.
I bet you probably won't believe it now, but the previous standards for starch sausages stated that the meat content was lower than that of starch! However, after the abolition in 2013,The real meaning of "starch sausage" on the market has basically become a legend. If it is said that starch sausages are sold now, it can only be a fluke that has not been investigated. So, the grilled sausages you've eaten on the street over the years aren't meatless.
Let's talk about the grading of ham sausages. I think you may not know, in fact, ham sausage can be divided into several grades - starch-free, special, excellent and ordinary, in which the content of starch and protein is fixed. Expand your circle of knowledgeThe protein content of the lowest level of ordinary ham sausage is also specified, at least 10 or more. Hearing this, do you still think that the three-dollar street sausage is a fake?
Indeed, the idea that those sausages are just starch products is outdated. In order to maintain the quality of today's ham sausages, the amount of starch added is limited, too much starch will make the taste of the intestines more "facey", and the texture of the meat is far worse. Let's not be entangled with starch all day long, in fact, it is added reasonably according to national standards to ensure that it is both delicious and delicious.
Of course, it's one thing to guarantee a passing grade, it's another thing to get the real thing. You can't help but wonder what kind of "meat" is in those bargains on the market, right? To tell you the truth, many people wonder if those leftovers from unknown sources are singing in the name of grilled sausages. This topic is no less hot than the controversy at home, and the controversy is overwhelming.
Don't rush to conclusions, under the strict food safety supervision of our environment, those common cheap ham sausages are still tested. Don't think too badly, at least the three-dollar ordinary grade ham sausage must have a higher meat content than you think. Sometimes, preconceived biases can cause you to be surprised by what's really going on.
And the "starch sausage preservative" that your parents often talk about, and now I'm going to tell you:Food additives and nitrites are not so terrible under the premise of food safety and legal addition. Strictly speaking, they also play an important role in the processing of meat products, such as inhibiting bacteria and maintaining the color of food. Don't be dismissive at the mention of these things, the real question is whether the use is reasonable, not stigmatizing any additives.
Finally, to get back to the point, is the grilled sausage a bad thing? The truth is, it's fine as an occasional snack, but nutritionally, grilled sausages really aren't considered a healthy food. The reason is simple - there is too much salt and it is fried during the roasting process. At this point, I really have to agree with my wife's point of view, and I can't be greedy. Hey, you want to eat that kind of grilled sausage without any meat? Beijing fried enema is your choice, come, try this old Beijing snack with only noodles and no meat, don't worry about whether there is meat in it, are you willing to try it? I can't guarantee anything else, but at least it won't make you cranky about what is sausage and what starch is.
In the end, we still need to know more about food, so that we won't make a fuss at home. In a situation like my family, I really have to sit down and resolve the conflict peacefully with a correct understanding of food. After all, no matter how delicious the grilled sausage is, it can't compare to the harmony of the family, right?
