Best Food, Nutrition And Diet With CAROLINA KRAMER

 As a rule, mushrooms contribute to improving the taste of dishes. Cooking these mushrooms is easy enough, you do not need special skills.

 As for the choice of which type of champignons is best for dieting, the prevailing opinion is that it is best to use fresh mushrooms. This conclusion was made by experts who analyzed feedback from people who have tried this weight loss program. However, this condition is not mandatory and strict. You can make a choice to use the frozen version, or use dried mushrooms in cooking. The only disadvantage with this approach would be the loss of flavor, however, the mushroom’s valuable components will remain.

 Perhaps one of the few negative properties of mushrooms is the content of chitin in their composition. It is a natural component that relates to polysaccharide compounds with nitrogen. This substance provides the stiffness of the cells of fungi, protecting them. However, for the human body, chitin does not carry any benefit and is not absorbed. In this regard, some experts classify mushrooms as relatively “heavy” food, since they can impede the digestive process. A modest portion of mushrooms is connected with this. There are also age restrictions on the use of mushrooms for food, but they mainly relate to children.

 The total mass of mushrooms in the daily diet should not exceed 320 grams. The diet menu is combined with a sufficient volume of liquid, for which ordinary pure water or mineral water without gas is suitable.

 For breakfast, eat 200 ml of kefir, as well as 80 grams of cottage cheese. Products must contain a minimum level of fat.

 When eating, eat 180 grams of baked mushrooms. In addition, eat a small portion of vegetable salad. A portion of 120 grams will be sufficient.

 An evening meal includes a 180-gram serving of salad, the main ingredients of which are asparagus and arugula, 120 grams of mushrooms, which should be baked, and 150 ml of herbal tea. Of course, the drink should not contain sugar.

 For lunch, cook a mushroom soup. The volume of the portion should not exceed 230 ml. A good addition to the daily meal will be a vegetable salad (about 200 grams).

 As a snack, boiled rice can be served – about 120 grams. Additionally, drink 150 ml of low-fat kefir.

 Evening meals include grilled fish fillets (about 180 grams). You should choose a lean fish. In addition, eat 120 grams of grilled mushrooms.

 There is another approach to the program of weight loss based on champignons. Basically, it is used by some Western celebrities, and the technique itself was developed in the USA. The essence of this method of losing weight is that every day one or two meals are replaced with mushrooms. Most often it concerns the lunchtime or evening meal. Breakfast is best left traditional. One portion of mushrooms is about 180 grams by weight. The diet program lasts 2 weeks, as a result of which, according to reviews, you can lose 3-4 kilograms of excess weight.

 In conclusion, you shouldn’t dwell on the negative effects. As noted earlier, the list is rather poor, however, people who suffer from inflammatory diseases of the pancreas and ulcerative pathologies of the stomach will have to abandon the mushroom diet. In addition, you should not resort to such a program of weight loss if you suffer from low stomach acidity or liver problems. Of course, timely consultation with the doctor is one of the main conditions of the slimming scheme using mushrooms.

 “Kamikaze” is a type of Japanese cocktail, which will certainly please everyone. Despite this frightening name, this soft drink, with a pleasant taste, certainly has nothing to do with the typhoon Divine Wind, which destroyed everything in its path and earned itself such a title.

 The name of the drink was given as a tribute to the Japanese suicide bombers who rammed American ships.

 Immediately after the war, Kamikaze (cocktail) became the favorite drink of Americans and Europeans, from where it began its journey around the world. There is, however, another version of the origin of the drink; from a bartender in America, who believed that Kamikaze was the prototype of another drink called Gimlet.

 Ingredients include squeezed orange juice (lime), orange liqueur and vodka (30 ml of each). Liquids are mixed with ice in a shaker (the bartender’s main tool). The resulting mixture is filtered into a martini glass through a strainer and a slice of lemon added.

 Cocktail Kamikaze Lime. An easy alternative. Add 100ml of sparkling lime water to the classic cocktail. Serve in a tall glass.

 Cocktail “Blue Kamikaze.” Orange liqueur is replaced by Blue Curacao. Lime juice is recommended. It creates a drink with a bright blue color and the taste does not change.

 Cocktail “Electric Kamikaze”. Triple Sec liqueur is added to the Blue Kamikaze mixture. Mixed in equal quantities vodka, Blue Curacao, Triple Sec, lime (20 ml each) and ice. Then the cocktail is filtered into a chilled glass.

 In all cases, the ingredients can be modified, for example, if citrus fruits are not suitable, the dose of fresh juice is reduced. If you need a stronger drink, a double portion of vodka is added or the ice is removed. This cocktail can be consumed in one gulp or poured into a glass.

 Iced coffee is an exquisite drink that will help you feel more invigorated and refresh yourself on a hot summer day. It is low-calorie, which means that the drink will not ruin your figure either.

 According to legend, ancestors of today’s Oromo people in a region of Kaffa in Ethiopia were believed to have been the first to recognize the energizing effect of the coffee plant, though no direct evidence has been found indicating where in Africa coffee first grew or who among the native populations might have used it as a stimulant, earlier than the 15th century. The story of Kaldi, the 9th-century Ethiopian goatherd who discovered coffee when he noticed how excited his goats became after eating the beans from a coffee plant, did not appear in writing until 1671 and is probably apocryphal.

 Other accounts attribute the discovery of coffee to Sheikh Omar. According to an ancient chronicle (preserved in the Abd-Al-Kadir manuscript), Omar, who was known for his ability to cure the sick through prayer, was once exiled from Mocha in Yemen to a desert cave near Ousab (modern-day Wusab, about 90 km east of Zabid). Starving, Omar chewed berries from nearby shrubbery but found them to be bitter. He tried roasting the seeds to improve the flavor, but they became hard. He then tried boiling them to soften the seed, which resulted in a fragrant brown liquid. Upon drinking the liquid Omar was revitalized and sustained for days. As stories of this “miracle drug” reached Mocha, Omar was asked to return and was made a saint.

 This recipe for cold coffee does not require a set of exotic and expensive products, so everyone can make it. This drink is served in chic restaurants with Michelin stars, so you can also pleasantly surprise your guests at your next dinner party.

 First, brew a pot of strong coffee such as an american or espresso. Be sure to boil ground coffee in coffee pot. No freeze-dried coffee, it will only spoil the taste.

 Then pour the coffee into a shaker (blender or other container) and add one cup of milk (coconut, almond, cow).

 Botifarra is a type of sausage made by stuffing intestine of pork with minced and marinated meat from the same animal.

 These sausages, also called botifarra vermella, roget or simply botifarra, must be cooked before eating them, often on a pan or on a grill, and they are served whole as a meal with some accompaniment. In Catalonia, botifarra with beans is very typical. They are those that are used on the botifarrades.

 They are red before cooking and pink once cooked. They usually contain some pepper, often also garlic and parsley. Sometimes the minced meat is roasted or mushrooms are added before stuffing it in the intestine. It is also known as botifarra crua (eng. raw) or llonganissa in some parts of the Catalan Countries.

 In the Valencian Country, except for the blanquet, a white botifarra, the botifarra is always black, dry or raw, and it is made with pork blood, lean meat, bacon and in some cases with some meat from pork head. There are varieties of it, with meat, onion and rice. Usually it is eaten fried or roasted, with the fat that drains out, and it is also eaten raw when dried. There are cooked varieties such as botifarra cuita or botifarró. Another typical one is the catalana with truffle, a sausage to eat in a sandwich or as tapas. The city of Ontinyent is known for the preparation of its typical Valencian sausages, although since Requena has become part of the Valencian Country in the 19th century, its sausages have become very popular. The fresh botifarra is known as llonganissa and is knotted with cords every 10 or 15 centimeters, making portions. It was called roget in the past and still, in some places, the fresh chorizo sausage for roasting or frying is called so.

 In Occitania there are fresh sausages from Toulouse, very similar to Catalan raw butifarras. Fuet is made with the dried and cured botifarra vermella. In Girona. With very thin and narrow botifarras, dried and cured sausage called “cigala de gat” or “cigala” is made.

 If we take into account that the names to call the same meat product vary, such as the botifarra vermella or roget in great part of Catalonia and the llonganissa in the Valencian Country or the Balearic Islands, it seems that they are derived from the making process and ingredients used in the making of the embotit (dry cured sausage) in question.

 If we consider that there are records of the word llonganissa or sausage used already in the 15th century or earlier, we can not agree that the word llonganissa could have been taken from Spanish; rather it can be said that the word “butifarra” has replaced the word “llonganissa” in certain registers and areas in the linguistic domain of Catalan, especially in those that describe the raw and bloodless product. There is a curious Catalan saying: Where there is no blood, the butifarras are not made.

 ● Botifarra de carn: In the Valencian Country it is made with lean meat, blood and pieces of ear and cheek of pork. Similar to the baldana de sang.

 ● Botifarra traïdora: Made from of cuttings and fried pieces of meat that are first heated before making them into the sausage. Original from the northwestern regions of the Pyrenean.
