I went to dinner with my cousin today, I haven't been out with her for a long time, and we've been spending less and less time together since she got pregnant. As soon as I finished eating, she told me to help her get the folic acid in her bag. I believe everyone has heard of folic acid, which is usually a medicine to be taken in the first trimester. Folic acid is a B vitamin that helps promote the growth and reproduction of cells in our body and can prevent genetic mutations. Eating folic acid can alleviate folic acid deficiency and anemia. Folic acid is also very important for us ordinary people, folic acid helps the growth of cells, and at the same time can improve anemia, and can also make our ** better.
After eating folic acid, my cousin said she was going to the supermarket to buy some spinach. I wondered, why do I eat spinach? Because spinach is very high in folic acid, she said. Moreover, spinach contains a lot of dietary fiber, and eating more spinach can make gastrointestinal peristalsis smoother and help facilitate urination. In addition, my cousin sometimes likes to stay up late, staying up late is more harmful to the liver, so eating more spinach can also play a certain role in protecting our liver.
Hearing what my cousin said, I couldn't help but buy some spinach and cook it myself. So, let's introduce you to a home-cooked recipe for spinach. Let's take a look at how to do it.
Cold spinach.
Prepare the ingredients:Spinach, carrots, enoki mushrooms, salt, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, garlic cloves, chili peppers, sesame oil, sesame seedsHere's how:1.First of all, we need to prepare the right amount of spinach. The spinach we buy at the supermarket is usually relatively clean, but we can't scribble it just because it's clean. We wash the spinach under running clean water, about two or three times. After washing, we gently shake off the moisture from the spinach with our hands. Then place the spinach on a cutting board, cut off the roots of the spinach, and then cut the spinach into small pieces and set aside.
2.Next, wash the small handful of enoki mushrooms that we have prepared. Before cleaning, we can remove the root of enoki mushroom, because this part of the root is relatively dirty and cannot be used, so it is much more convenient to clean it after cutting the root. When we clean enoki mushrooms, we can tear them apart by hand, so that it is more convenient to cook. Peel the carrots we have prepared and wash them with water. After that, use a shredder to shred the carrots.
3.Bring the water to a boil, and when the water is boiling, we first put the spinach in and blanch it. Because we are going to salad spinach, we can just put the spinach in it. Blanch for about 30 seconds. Then we blanch the enoki mushrooms and shredded carrots together. Because they are all vegetables, they can be blanched directly together without mixing the flavor.
4.After blanching for about 1 minute, the spinach, enoki mushrooms and shredded carrots are cooked, so we need to turn off the heat, remove them and set aside on a plate. It's better to prepare a larger plate so that it is easier to stir.
5.Then we're going to prepare the sauce. Wash the millet glue we prepared. Then heat the oil and wait for the oil to be hot, we can directly put the millet pepper in and stir for a while.
After about 20 seconds of sautéing, we can serve them out and place them in a small bowl. Then pour an appropriate amount of oyster sauce, soy sauce, white sesame seeds, sugar and garlic into a small bowl and stir them well with chopsticks.
6.Next, we place the sauce directly on a plate and mix it well with chopsticks or gloved hands. Our cold spinach dish is complete.
This is the practice of cold spinach shared with you today, eating such a spinach in the spring is not only light and delicious, but also very suitable for making snacks, interested friends, go and try it.
