Strawberry Jam
I tried making a small bottle of strawberry jam a few days ago, and when I posted it on my friends circle, friends immediately asked for a bottle, so I started making larger quantities again. In fact, after I made it, I felt it was very simple. You can smell the fragrance as soon as you open the bottle compared to the commercially available ones, and the taste also feels more pure. The main reason is that there are no additives, so you can eat it with confidence. Strawberries will be out of the market soon, so sisters, please start making them too

With the weather so hot, many people have no desire to eat meat and feel that eating meat is easy to make them greasy and irritating. But for carnivorous people, how can they survive this summer without meat, so the most important thing is to eat the right kind of meat.

Raw lotus root can eliminate blood stasis and clear away heat, relieve irritability and quench thirst, stop bleeding (nosebleeds, hematuria, bloody stools, uterine bleeding, etc.), resolve phlegm, and treat pneumonia, tuberculosis, enteritis, diarrhea due to spleen deficiency, and hemorrhage in women.

The weather is getting colder, and porridge appears more and more frequently in breakfast recipes. It’s very comfortable to cook a pot of hot porridge until you feel warm all over when you go out. Recently, I like to use a pressure cooker to cook porridge, millet porridge, and multi-grain porridge. I eat it frequently, especially recommended. I recommend this coconut-flavored black rice fruit porridge that I cooked for breakfast a few days ago. The black rice itself has a unique fragrance, and is mixed with coconut milk, mango and kiwi. The combination of various fragrances tastes great, soft, glutinous and sweet, and it has the feeling of a tropical dessert. There are many bottles and jars in my family’s grain cabinet, and black rice is one of the regular items. I like to add a little bit of it when cooking rice and porridge.

It has special nutritional value. Modern analysis shows that black rice is very rich in nutrients and is also known as black tribute rice. Zhang Qian, the pioneer of the Silk Road in the Western Han Dynasty, discovered this strange rice and presented it to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Black rice has relatively high nutritional value and medicinal value. According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it has the effects of nourishing yin and nourishing the kidneys, strengthening the spleen and warming the liver, improving eyesight and activating blood circulation.

Stir-fried pork rinds with double sauce
Pig skin contains a large amount of collagen protein that can be converted into gelatin during the cooking process. Gelatin has a network space structure, which can bind a lot of water and enhance cell physiological metabolism. The main component of the protein contained in pig skin is collagen, accounting for about 85%, followed by elastin. Biological research has found that collagen protein is related to the ability to bind water. If the human body lacks this kind of collagen, which is a biological macromolecular glue substance, the mechanism of water storage in cells in the body will be disrupted. The amount of water bound to cells is significantly reduced, and dehydration will occur in the human body, which can cause dryness, scaling, loss of elasticity, wrinkles, and even life-threatening consequences. Pig skin is sweet in taste, cool in nature, has the functions of nourishing yin and replenishing deficiency, clearing away heat and soothing the throat. In modern times, scientists have discovered that regular consumption of pig skin or pig trotters can delay aging and fight cancer. Because pig skin contains a large amount of collagen, pig skin is a meat product raw material with a high protein content. Meat products such as pork belly, skin jelly, and ham processed from pig skin not only have good toughness, but also have good color, aroma, taste, and texture. They also have important physiological health effects on human skin, tendons, bones, and hair. Pig skin contains a large amount of collagen protein, which can be converted into gelatin during the cooking process. Gelatin has a network space structure, which can bind a lot of water, enhance cell physiological metabolism, effectively improve the body's physiological functions and the water storage function of skin tissue cells, so that cells can be moisturized and kept moist, preventing premature skin wrinkles and delaying the aging process of the skin. Pig skin helps your skin remove wrinkles and hydrate when the weather is dry. The cold and dry winter is the season when human skin is easily dehydrated. At this time, wrinkles will creep up to the corners of your eyes and then extend to the entire face. Wrinkles appear on human skin because the water storage function of skin cells is impaired, the ability of cells to bind water is reduced, plasticity is attenuated, elasticity is reduced, and mucous membranes are dry. To delay or reduce the appearance of wrinkles, you must consume some collagen and elastin that can improve bonding. Meat skin is a food rich in collagen, which has special effects on wrinkle reduction and beauty. Pork skin (including pig trotters and pig tails) contains 26.4% protein, which is 2.5 times that of pork, and more than 90% is macromolecular collagen and elastin, whose content is comparable to bear paws. Collagen has a special nutritional effect on the skin. It can enhance the vitality of skin cells with low water storage function, improve their functions, promote the absorption and storage of water by skin cells, prevent the skin from drying out and wrinkles, and make it rich, plump, smooth and smooth; elastin can increase the elasticity and toughness of the skin, strong blood circulation, sufficient nutrient supply, wrinkles stretch, become lighter or disappear, and the skin appears delicate, delicate and smooth. The pig skin prescription listed in "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" by the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing pointed out that pig skin has the effect of harmonizing blood vessels and moisturizing the skin, and has been used throughout the ages. Slow down the aging of body cells. It is especially suitable for patients with yin deficiency and internal heat, sore throat, low fever and other symptoms.

Aschitin is a great thing, but we cannot chew the shrimp shells and swallow them. Even if we barely chew them and swallow them, they may not be able to absorb...

Spinach with Sesame Sauce
[Sesame Spinach] Grab the tail of spinach. In our local area, spinach is a vegetable that is sown in autumn and harvested in winter. In spring, as the temperature rises, spinach quickly ages and becomes unpalatable. Every spring, eating spinach salad several times is a must. Mix it with minced garlic, mix it with sesame sauce, or just use oil and vinegar sauce. I mainly like spinach, and it tastes delicious no matter how you mix it. The sesame paste I used today has a few pine seeds in it. In addition to the strong aroma of sesame paste, it also has the aroma of pine nuts, which is very good.

Flower yam puree
Five major benefits of eating yam in autumn: 1: Replenishing qi and nourishing blood. Yams replenish qi, strengthen the spleen, and nourish the stomach. When used in conjunction with blood-tonifying foods and medicines, the blood-tonifying effect can be enhanced. Two: Tonic and anti-aging. Yam is sweet in taste, cool and moist in nature, and enters the lung, spleen, and kidney meridians. "Depei Materia Medica" says that it has the function of tonifying deficiency and benefiting the body. Chen Xiuyuan, a doctor in the Qing Dynasty, once explained the function of yam, saying that its qi is flat and enters the lungs, and its taste is sweet and enters the spleen. The spleen governs blood and controls the limbs. If the spleen blood is sufficient, there will be no hunger and the limbs will be light and agile; the lungs govern qi, and if the lung qi is sufficient, the body will be lightened and the qi will be doubled; because of its thick and sticky texture, it can nourish the kidneys and essence, and if the essence is sufficient, it will strengthen the yin and prolong life. Modern pharmacological research suggests that yam contains saponins, glycoproteins, tannins, inhibitors, yamine, choline, starch, calcium, phosphorus, iron, etc., which have the effect of inducing interferon and have a certain anti-aging material basis. It can be seen that yam can indeed replenish deficiency, heal damage, and prolong life. Three: Strength and beauty. Yams contain a mixture of mucus proteins that can supply a large amount of various glycoproteins to the human body. They can increase the lubrication of mucous membranes and skin and reduce the accumulation of subcutaneous fat. They are a good beauty food and can be taken alone or used in compound recipes. Yam porridge, yam wine, Liuwei Rehmannia Drink, Zishen Shenggan Drink, etc., all have the effect of strengthening muscles and bones, nourishing the skin and keeping fit. Four: Nourish yin and nourish yang. Yams can nourish yin and clear away heat deficiency. Huang Guanxiu said in "Materia Medica Seeking Truth" that yam is a food, and the ancients used it in decoctions, saying that it tonifies the spleen, replenishes qi and removes heat. Its color is white and enters the lungs, and its taste is sweet and enters the spleen. Although the qi is warm but flat, it nourishes the yin of the spleen and lungs, so it can moisturize the fur and grow muscles. It is astringent in nature and can cure spermatorrhea. It tastes sweet and salty. It can also benefit the kidneys and strengthen yin. It can be pounded raw and applied to carbuncles to reduce swelling and hardness. It is also meant to nourish yin and reduce fever. Analyzing the formula of yam used by humans in the past, drinking yam with dioscorea alone can treat fatigue fever, asthma, cough, or spontaneous sweating; Zisheng decoction mainly uses yam, with Scrophulariaceae, Atractylodes, burdock, and Gallus gallus gallus, to treat yin deficiency and labor fever; Huangqi ointment uses yam as an adjuvant to supplement astragalus and gypsum to treat lung diseases. Liquan Yin combines yam with raw rehmannia glutinosa, asparagus, and scrophulariaceae to treat the symptoms of thirst and yin deficiency; Yuzhu yam decoction uses Polygonatum odoratum, trichosanthes, polygonum multiflorum, etc., combined with yam to nourish yin and promote fluid production. From all of this, it can be seen that yam has a certain effect of nourishing yin and clearing away heat. Five: Strengthen the body and eliminate evil. Yam has a mild nature and flavor, and functions to moisten the lungs, strengthen the spleen, and nourish the kidneys. It can not only nourish yang to strengthen the functions of the organs, but also nourish yin to nourish the material base. What is even more gratifying is that it can strengthen the body without being obsessed with evil, and can also be used when diseases and evils exist. Therefore, doctors in the past dynasties often used it to form prescriptions based on the treatment principles of strengthening the body and dispelling evil, and its application range is very wide. As the finale of a family dinner, this dish gives people a visual beauty and adds extra points to a full table. When I was sorting through the photos of the dishes I cooked these past two days, I found that there were a lot of missing steps. I took photos of every step while cooking them, but I couldn’t find them, even after spending half a day using photo recovery software. Fortunately, the preparation of the dish is very simple, just describe it in words.

【Walnut and Black Sesame Paste】 --- A touch of strong fragrance and a touch of memories
For black sesame paste, just like Shi Xin, friends who were born in the 1980s must have a deep memory of the pair of poles, the shout, the strong aroma, and the taste... This is a bowl of hot food that grew up with us. Meridian distribution of black sesame properties and flavors: sweet, flat. Returns to the liver, kidney, and large intestine meridians. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, black sesame seeds can nourish the liver and kidneys, moisten the five internal organs, replenish energy, grow muscles, and fill the brain. It can be used to treat dizziness, premature graying of beard and hair, hair loss, soreness of the waist and knees, weakness in the limbs, difficulty in walking, weakness of the five internal organs, dry skin, dry skin, dry intestines, and constipation caused by insufficient liver and kidney essence and blood. It is also well-known for its effect on black hair and beauty. Black sesame is the black seed of Sesamiaceae. It contains a lot of fat and protein. It also contains sesamin, arachidic acid, sesamol, oleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, sterols, lecithin, vitamins A, B, D, E and other nutrients. It can be made into a variety of delicious foods. If you keep eating it, it has good health effects. I like to make a cup of hot, fragrant walnut and black sesame paste for breakfast, which is both delicious and nutritious. Walnut kernels are rich in nutrients and contain indispensable trace elements for the human body such as zinc, manganese, and chromium. The phospholipids in walnuts have a good health care effect on the brain nerves. The walnut oil contains unsaturated fatty acids, which can prevent and treat arteriosclerosis. In addition to making black sesame paste, you can also fry various cereals and put them aside. When you want to drink, grab a handful, put it in the wall-breaking machine and stir it, and you can drink it in a few dozen seconds. Isn't it particularly convenient and nutritious? This is something that ordinary food processors cannot bring. The one I use is the Vishmet PRO-EQS broken-wall cooking machine. This fully nutritious broken-wall cooking machine has a power of 2200W and eight major functions (vegetables and fruits, grains, sauces, soups, ice cream, grinding, smoothies, minced meat). It is a true all-round cooking machine that can meet various needs of life. It also has 1-10 steps of stepless speed adjustment and instantaneous rotation, which is quite convenient. So I want to do something with it every day, because that process fills me with enjoyment.

Nourishing Ginseng Chicken Soup - Get ready for autumn health
Everyone is particular about the time of drinking soup. Is [drinking soup before a meal] or [drinking soup after a meal] the best way to absorb it?

A nutritious snack in winter - sesame crisps
Every once in a while, a group of people will come to the square not far from home to sell things. There are stalls selling various things, including flowers and plants, food, clothing, daily necessities... It is as lively as a market. The stalls close at eight or nine in the evening when they come early in the morning. I go shopping almost every time, sometimes not to buy things but just to join in the fun. Sesame halva is a kind of food that I see in those food stalls. I have thought about buying it many times. There are too many people shopping and the boss doesn’t need to cover it up. It just feels like it’s not hygienic. I just thought about it. In fact, this kind of crispy chips is also a specialty of Hubei, our hometown. It is not difficult to make. I used some maltose here to reduce the sweetness and greasy feeling. The taste is more mellow. There is not much sweetness in the mouth. You can feel the sweetness after chewing. Whether it is the elderly or children, it is still good to eat a few pieces occasionally. Data shows that black sesame has the functions of nourishing the liver and kidneys, nourishing the five internal organs, replenishing essence and blood, and moisturizing the intestines. It is regarded as a sacred nourishing food. Containing high-quality protein and rich minerals, it is also rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E and precious sesamin and melanin. It has certain effects on calcium supplementation, lowering blood pressure, hair growth, skin care and moisturizing, and improving fertility. In addition, it can also lower blood lipids, resist arteriosclerosis, inhibit bacteria and antisepsis, moisturize the intestines and relieve constipation, protect the liver, scavenge free radicals, anti-aging, anti-cancer, and lower blood sugar. Sesame seeds can also be replaced with walnuts, peanuts, popcorn,... and other dry goods. Don't cook too much at one time. Do it after eating. If you eat too much, you will feel tired.
