"Instant Noodles" is 64 years old this year. The one who talks about this bowl of noodles is...

Some people say that instant noodles have a magic power, and they will be missed if they are not eaten for too long

In August 1958, the world's first bag of instant noodles came out in Japan

Why are instant noodles always addicting?

I believe no one will say that they have never eaten instant noodles.

Those "black pots" that instant noodles carry

I don't know since when, instant noodles have become "junk food", which makes some people who love instant noodles stay away, want to eat but dare not eat

Black pot one:

A bowl of noodles takes 32 hours to digest

Looking closely at the raw materials, the instant noodles are mainly composed of millet flour and wheat flour

Black pot two:

Added many preservatives

Many people believe that the long shelf life of instant noodles must be due to the addition of many preservatives

Black Pot Three:

It is poisonous to soak the instant noodle bowl in boiling water

Some people think that the inner layer of the paper bowl of instant noodles is coated with paraffin, and when it is soaked in boiling water, it will dissolve into the food

"Instant noodle complex" also has regrets

Although I love it so much, I still have some regrets about this bowl of noodles

First of all, let's take a look at the composition of instant noodles: refined flour, oil, seasoning packets, vegetable packets, there seems to be nothing wrong, but if you eat a packet of instant noodles with soup and noodles, you will eat about 30 grams of fat And 6.

Incomplete nutrition As a meal, the ratio of essential nutrients to the human body such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, water and cellulose is balanced

Too much fat Most of the instant noodles on the market are fried noodles, which can be used after brewing in boiling water

Palm oil is generally used, which is an oil with a relatively high content of unsaturated fatty acids and is resistant to high temperature.
Too much use can easily increase the risk of cardiovascular disease
.
And repeated use can easily generate harmful substances or cause cancer
.

The specified oil content of instant noodles is generally less than 20%, but the oil content of noodles produced by many manufacturers reaches more than 23%
.
With a pack of more than 20g of oil, a meal of instant noodles has greatly exceeded our daily fat intake
.
High-calorie, high-fat intake can easily lead to a variety of diseases

Excessive sodium content A package of seasonings contains salt, seasonings, etc.
Generally, a package of instant noodles requires at least 6g of salt to taste, and this package of noodles alone has reached the standard of less than 6g of salt intake per day

Instant noodles are nutritious and delicious

Although too much oil and salt will put a burden on the body, it is really nothing to eat instant noodles once in a while
.
We don't have to over-demonize instant noodles, as long as the ingredients are properly matched, instant noodles can be delicious and healthy as well:

cook as much as possible

The noodles of instant noodles are fried noodles.
Compared with boiled instant noodles, cooking instant noodles is more advocated.

Pour off the water from the first instant noodles

If you are worried that there is too much oil in the noodle cake, you can soak the noodle cake in hot water first, pour out the water, and then cook or instant noodles

half of the sauce

If you add all the seasoning packets in instant noodles to a bag of noodles, it is easy to exceed the salt content

One packet of noodles is put into the pot.
It is best to add at most half of all sauce packets and powder packets except the vegetable packets.
Put as little as you can
.

Eat with vegetables and eggs

The ingredient package of instant noodles is dry vegetables, which is not conducive to the retention of vitamins.
The protein and vitamin content are low.
When eating, you can add some vegetables, such as spinach, tomatoes, etc.
, and add eggs or soy products, and the nutrition will be comprehensive
.
If it is not convenient to match vegetables, you can also eat some fruits such as kiwi, banana, apple, orange, etc.
after eating instant noodles, which can effectively make up for the lack of vitamins

Ham is not a good partner

Many people think that ham sausage is a good partner for instant noodles.

If they are eaten together, the body will consume too much salt.
Regular consumption will easily lead to colds and elevated blood pressure.
