Invite friends to pick cranberries and plant cherry lips. strawberries, also called berries, berries; The reason for this name is that although there were wild strawberries in ancient China, they were actually cultivated and cultivated in 1915 by Russian expatriates. Once the cultivated strawberries are on the market, they are loved by everyone for their sweet and sour taste, melt-in-your-mouth texture and peculiar aroma!
Strawberry is not only delicious and delicious, but also has a very high nutritional value, it is not only rich in a variety of vitamins, carotene, amino acids, cellulose, folic acid, anthocyanins and iron, calcium, phosphorus and other trace elements. In particular, strawberries contain 7 to 10 times more vitamin C than apples and grapes. And its overall nutrient content is also 3 to 4 times higher than that of apples, pears, and grapes.
However, although strawberries are delicious and nutritious, they have a very disadvantage, that is, their skin is very delicate, whether it is too strong when taking it, or when rinsing too quickly, the peel will rot. However, strawberries can't be washed without washing! Because, the skin of strawberries is too crisp and tender, and the high sugar content is easy to provoke insects, if you don't wash it, you are worried about eating insects in your stomach, and you are worried about pesticide residues!
Does this problem that Xiao Nuan said exist, right? Therefore, when many friends wash strawberries, some add salt and some put flour. It is believed that salt inhibits bacteria, and flour has a strong adsorption power and washes away small bugs on strawberries. Actually, this is not the right approach! Opposite Xiao Nuan's house is the strawberry planting base, and when I chatted with the uncle and aunt who planted strawberries on weekdays, I realized that when washing strawberries, it was not right to put salt and flour! The following will share with you the correct washing method in detail.
Preparation: strawberries, baking soda, starch.
Step 1: Do not remove the stems of the strawberries you bought home, otherwise bacteria will invade from this place when cleaning. The only thing to note is that when the strawberries are taken out of the bag, try to hold them gently, otherwise you will break the skin of the strawberries.
Step 2: After putting the strawberries in the pot, add 1 teaspoon of baking soda and 3 to 4 teaspoons of starch, block the water flow with your hands, let the water flow into the basin along the fingers, and try not to let the water flow directly against the strawberries. Once the water has submerged over the strawberries, stir gently to allow the starch and baking soda to blend well in the water.
Step 3: Soak the strawberries for 10 minutes, gently remove them, replace the water in the basin, add 5 teaspoons of starch again, stir well, add the strawberries, and soak again for 5 minutes.
Step 4: When the time is up, take out the strawberries and soak them twice in water, then you can drain them and serve them on a plate! Note: When changing the water, remember not to let the water flow directly rinse the strawberries, so that the skin of the washed strawberries is basically damaged, which not only affects the taste, but also easy to breed bacteria.
Many friends have questions: Is it bad to wash strawberries with salt and flour? Although salt can inhibit the growth of bacteria, it cannot wash away pesticide residues, and the adsorption capacity of flour is weaker than that of starch, so these two things cannot be washed when washing strawberries.
The reason why baking soda is used is because most of the pesticides are weakly acidic, and washing strawberries with baking soda can neutralize the pesticide residues on the strawberries and baking soda, which is why the strawberry stalk is not allowed to be picked to prevent pesticide residues and bacteria from leaching into the pulp. The starch has a strong adsorption power, and after 2 times of starch adsorption, the eggs and other dirt on the strawberry will be washed clean.
