5 little-known useful products, by which you pass every day in the shop
A Life Food / / December 19, 2019
Eggs, milk, bread, sausages and other wonderful yoghurt ...
This is what we usually buy in hypermarkets every week. People can spend hours wandering around with a huge truck, but they are again and again pass by these products.
Delicious, healthy and inexpensive "positions", which you did not hear anything - what is it?
In this article I will reveal their culinary secrets.
Position №1: camelina oil
The first time you hear "camelina" comes to mind is a stupid question: "Because fungi or what?".
No, not from mushrooms. Camelina sativa or Camelina sativa - herbaceous plant of the cabbage family.
From this delightful pressed camelina oil. Its taste I was even difficult to describe. Something herbaceous and flavorful. Camelina oil is quite useful, as most of unrefined vegetable oils, but I loved him for his unusual taste.
And the price. It is worth it is quite inexpensive. Comparable in price to a sunflower. And much cheaper oils such as cedar, sesame or walnut oil.
And I wrote to the exact price, but the trouble - in Ufa, this oil has disappeared from the shelves. My longing knows no boundaries :( interrupts while mustard oil, which is also inexpensive and quite a pleasant taste, but it is not that ...
Camelina oil first loved me, and then I "plant" on him many friends.
Salad dressings №1 according to Farid Karimov :)
Position №2: Pomelo
The emphasis on the second syllable :)
You've probably seen those funny, wrapped in fishnet huge fruit? 2 years ago I regaled them to my sister, and since then our family has its eats regularly.
The taste of pomelo soft citrus. I would even say that this is the sour citrus from those that I have eaten.
Fruit quite useful, but on this list, he did not because of the use. The whole "life hacking" of this fruit is that it is incredibly easy to clean.
See, oranges, tangerines and lemons we eat with partitions. Grapefruit we clear from the walls, but do it for a long time and is inconvenient. But pomelo is cleared from the inner walls are very, very simple. This is its main advantage.
As a result, in our hands is the most tender flesh pomelo. Especially your kids will appreciate it.
The second trump card for cleaning - that fruit is not succulent. When cleaning your hands are clean and non-sticky.
In addition, she cleaned peel and peel is also very simple (the same orange difficult to clean, not izvazyukavshis).
Close pomelo weighing 1 kg costs about 60 rubles. Slightly more expensive oranges and grapefruits.
Well, a couple of words on how to choose a pomelo. I personally try to take the soft and fragrant fruits. The only risk - take the unripe fruit. In this case, the taste becomes very weak. But spoiled pomelo I did not come across a single time.
Position number 3: Avocados
This product is known to many, and many of his tasted. We tasted and rejected.
The thing is that people tend to buy the "wrong" avocado. After being sold in hypermarkets are usually 2 types of avocados: either frankly rotten, or oak.
I hate when I see a full tray piled with rotten avocado. Shops are playing on the fact that the product is new. People collect these fruits in a cart "on trial." It is not surprising then that many are called avocado muck.
At the other extreme - unripe avocado. There they can already, but they are hard and resemble the taste and structure of raw zucchini.
Good avocados must be perfectly green, without any "podporchinok" and dark areas. And most importantly - soft. The consistency of a good ripe avocado - as egg yolk. So soft and buttery, it can be easily spread on bread.
Everyone I gave a good, ripe avocado, I was delighted with him. With no exceptions!
But ready to eat the fruits are rare. Often have to buy oak avocado and "ripen" their own.
Before I knew how to do best, I translated a lot of fruit. You need to wrap each avocado in a separate piece of paper and hide in a dark, dry place for 3-6 days. Temperature - room. Then get and there is at least easing.
On the palate, you can catch some nutty notes and, again, the taste of greens. Damn, it should just try it!
I love to add avocado to salads, and my 2-year-old daughter eats it just like that. And there are people who smear the avocado on the bread, sprinkle it with salt and sprinkled with lemon.
A couple of years ago, the avocado was considered exotic fruit, which was sold at the price of 100 rubles apiece. But with the advent of hypermarkets in my Ufa, prices gradually fell to 19-25 rubles apiece. In Moscow the prices even lower. Now the way the season, as I understand it, because avocados are cheap and good quality.
Position №4: Goat cheese
I used to, like everyone else, eating regular cheese. Cheese made from cow's milk. But it so happened that my daughter developed an allergy to it. We have become an outlet for products made from goat milk and, in particular, the goat cheese.
Buy goat cheese can be in any hypermarket. Immediately I must say that the goat cheese is worth significantly more expensive than usual. About 1.5-2 times. But they say that goat's milk is much healthier cows. And even goat cheese eaten with much slower than usual. At least we have that. And all the fault of its unusual full-bodied and tart taste. I am sure you will like it.
Position №5: Cashew
Cashew, like all nuts, rich in protein, unsaturated fats and calcium.
And what's the "life hacking" of this nut?
The fact that it is sweet. Sweet, milk. At least, this is the sweet nuts, I know, even though it does not contain a lot of sugar. In short, the ideal replacement for a sweet snack if you want a bit limited.
Find a good cashew is not easy. It should be light. As in the photo.
The older cashew, so it is darker. Another is fried - beige, but I do not recognize this, and it costs more expensive for some reason. Our family buys the cashews in a familiar Uzbeks. As it turns out cheaper and fresher product. In such hypermarkets can not be found.
