Do mushrooms need to be cleaned? How to prepare mushrooms for further cooking. To wash or not to wash

In this matter, there has long been a cardinal division, cleaner than that of football fans. Some advocate complete cleansing. Others believe that the first simply have nothing to do. Is there a golden mean in this matter? Does everyone need cleansing? How not to harm yourself?

According to WHO, over the past thirty years, the incidence of malignant neoplasms of the colon has increased and now ranks third. And the overall growth oncological diseases different localization even exceeded the population growth. It's all about carcinogens. And there is only one way out - cleansing the body! Doctors are not so categorical. After all, our body is able to cleanse itself. It is for these purposes that we have the lymphatic system, liver, kidneys, intestines and skin, which throw out everything that can harm it. The question is, does the body cope with natural "pollutants" or does it need additional cleansing? The question is very subtle!

Look in the mirror

Is this really so - you can understand by your well-being. Signs of contamination of the body are constant headaches, an earthy complexion, digestive problems, it is not clear where the allergy came from, and other troubles. Ardent supporters of cleansing the body of toxins assure that regular "cleaning the body" is simply necessary for everyone who already has chronic diseases, and often sick people. True, all the popular "telehealers" and others like them are modestly silent about the fact that purge fanatics often end up in a hospital bed. This is because they are not inclined to comply with the main condition of such events - caution and accuracy.

How to choose the right and safe ones in the flow of ways to cleanse the body of toxins?

Where to begin?

In fact, you need to start with a visit to the doctor. If you have any "chronicle", in no case do not start cleaning procedures without consulting a specialist. With diabetes, arthritis, arthrosis, gastritis, pregnancy, and even just starting the procedure is impossible. All sores will instantly aggravate. And if you can not wait, then start with an easy diet. Refuse convenience foods, fast food, salty and fried. Avoid alcohol, caffeine and nicotine. Make sure that 60% of the diet is fresh vegetables. Can be used in any amount dairy products while minimizing consumption whole milk And butter. After five days of such a diet, recovery functions are launched, and if you stay on such a diet for 10 days, there will be a complete cleansing and renewal of blood flow.

Before you start cleaning individual bodies, remember: the interval between different procedures should be at least a week

For the first time, choose the most sparing recipes.

Do not exhaust yourself with enemas, unless you have to go to the proctologist. With prolonged "receptions" of enemas, the body loses water. And this is not good, you will feel how your strength has left you ...

Liver cleanse

Cleansing the liver should be approached most delicately. Especially if there are problems such as biliary dyskinesia, stones in the liver or in gallbladder. The now popular drink of sunflower (olive) oil mixed with lemon juice And raw eggs and the truth is able to remove excess cholesterol from the largest gland in our body. But a rare person will survive this procedure - you will have to suffer during the day. But Hippocrates said that the treatment should not be more painful and painful than the disease itself. Secondly, if there are stones in your bile ducts that you do not know about, then such manipulations can end in failure. In addition, you can undermine your pancreas - sometimes it ends in necrosis.

Therefore, it is better to choose a more gentle way of cleansing. For example, like this. Prepare porridge from 50 g of buckwheat groats per 200 g of water (cook over low heat for 20 minutes without salt and oil). Ready porridge eat warm in one go, then lie on your right side, placing a warm heating pad under it. The next day after this procedure, the stool should be mushy, dark in color, which will indicate the effectiveness of the procedure. Such cleansing is done at home once a month, preferably on the full moon.

Large and small mushrooms are cleaned differently. If it is enough to walk through small elastic mushrooms with a sponge or a stiff brush, cutting off the leg by a couple of millimeters, then for large mushrooms you still need to cut out the damaged areas. The drying method is the same in both cases: the champignons are washed under the tap and laid out to dry on a towel.

Whether to remove the skin

In forest mushrooms upper layer very thin and removed during washing. But in store-bought skins, it is more difficult to clean, but this must be done. Moreover, the older the mushrooms, the more carefully you need to remove the skin.

After all, it is not only dangerous, but also unpleasant if sand and the remains of the earth creak on the teeth. Therefore, they are first removed manually, and then the mushrooms are washed under water. To disinfect champignons, they are placed for one and a half minutes in an oven heated to 80 degrees. Only after such processing is it safe to add mushrooms to snacks and salads.

Mushroom cleaning before frying

For correct processing before cooking, it is enough to wipe them with a napkin, if necessary, renew the cut of the leg, remove the darkening.

Before preparing soups, pie fillings or mushroom caviar mushrooms are washed under a tap until dirt is removed. No other preparation is required.

Stuffing for mushrooms

The recipe is simple: pour into a bowl cold water, spread the mushrooms (the water should cover the mushrooms completely). Flour is also poured there (1 tablespoon of flour per 2 liters of water).

Mushrooms, and especially champignons, are perishable products. When used, do not fresh mushrooms you can get poisoned for a long time and seriously. In which temperature regime stored mushrooms? At +4 degrees, mushrooms are not stored for more than five days, at +10 - exactly two days, at +18 - 6 hours and no more.

Mushrooms are sold in different forms:

in vacuum packing;
by weight;
in a cellophane bag.

It is best to buy champignons by weight, then you can personally choose the mushrooms you like. If the packaging is still closed and the product is already packaged, then champignons sold in vacuum containers are best. The point is that packaging devoid of air extends the shelf life of the product. Nevertheless, mushrooms still need to be processed before cooking. Therefore, for example, the question: “Should mushrooms be cleaned before frying?” Should not arise.

Mushrooms in cellophane can be wrapped for 2 reasons:

In production, the product was initially packaged.
The shop itself packaged mushrooms.

To distinguish one from the other is quite simple: you need to look for the presence of a label. During production packaging, it is present and it displays all the necessary data (weight, shelf life, date of packaging, etc.). In stores, different supplies and types of mushrooms often interfere. There is no company label, only a sticker with the date of packaging is in place, but not with the date of harvest.

How to peel ginger and should it be done before use?

Ginger is increasingly used in the preparation of exotic and traditional dishes, added to tea, serves as the basis for the preparation of refreshing drinks. At the same time, many housewives today do not know how to peel ginger, which unconsciously deprive themselves of an impressive part. useful components and essential oils.

These substances are in the precious pulp, closely adjacent to the peel, therefore right choice instrument is very important. Some people still cannot decide whether it is necessary to rid the root of the skin at all if it is so thin and capricious. As practice shows, the correct answer to these questions is the key to obtaining the desired taste and aroma of the dish.

Do I need to peel ginger for making tea, jam, and other culinary delights?

Before peeling ginger, you need to decide for what purpose the product will be used. In this case, the following rules apply:

Ginger for tea, refreshing drinks, candied and pickling does not need to get rid of the peel. Otherwise, the product will lose its fine taste which the cook is counting on.
If there is no goal to use the entire root in the next few hours, then we do not peel off the skin. Better cut off right amount product and clean it.
The root crop, the pulp of which will go directly to food, must be cleaned. Without a corresponding chemical exposure or long heat treatment the peel will be ordinary dirt, devoid of all useful components.

Tip: It is strictly forbidden to purchase already peeled ginger root in the store, even if the product is placed in vacuum packaging and looks very attractive. Such products contain practically no useful components and are absolutely useless for enhancing the aroma of tea.

Effective and gentle cleaning techniques for ginger root

Cleaning ginger begins with the preparation of the root. It must be thoroughly rinsed in cool water (warm liquid will negatively affect the condition of the product) and dry. Next we take sharp knife and carefully cut off all the bulges and branches from the sinuous formation. Small ones can be thrown away, large ones will also go for cleaning, but it is better to use them to enhance the taste of jam, tea or lemonade.

With a spoon. The simplest and most gentle processing option, which is effective when exposed only to a very ripe product. During peeling, only the skin itself is removed and the nutritious pulp is not affected. In one hand we hold the root, in the other - a spoon, while the thumb should be located on the convex side of the tool. Starting to scrape off the skin confident movements, we act strictly in one direction. The depth of impact should be minimal.

With a knife or straight razor. IN this case it is necessary to act in the same way as in the method with a spoon, but the movements must be performed as superficially as possible. The tool must be as sharp as possible. You should not try to peel the ginger root like a potato, this way you can remove all the useful components.
With a vegetable peeler. We apply the tool traditional way, but be sure to control the thickness of the cut skin, it should not exceed 1-2 mm. For this method only high-quality new vegetable peelers or special slicers are suitable.
By using metal washcloth. We take a washcloth designed for cleaning pans. It must be new, unused, made of very thin wire. Ginger is placed in a bowl of cool water and after a minute we begin to rub the surface of the product. At first we try to act in one direction. Only if this approach does not give the desired result, we begin to rub harder and change direction. The main thing is to keep the same pressing force, otherwise you can cut the root in several places, depriving it of a significant part of the aromatic oils.

With a thick brush. We take a toothbrush of the maximum degree of hardness, place the ginger root under a stream of cool water and begin to rub the skin with active movements with light pressure. The approach may take a lot of time, but the end result will be the most optimal. With such an impact, only extra layers are removed, the pulp remains unaffected, so ginger retains maximum amount essential oils and beneficial ingredients.

These recommendations are conditional. To determine the correct approach, you can try both options for using ginger - with and without peel. Both approaches to the use of the product are absolutely safe for health and do not provoke any side effects.
