【Kelp-Knot Roasted Pork】--the most cold delicacy in winter
Overview
As we all know, kelp is very rich in nutrients and contains iodine, iron, calcium, mannitol, carotene and other ingredients needed by the human body. In the cold winter, kelp also has the effect of keeping out the cold. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, sea water is cold and cool, and the kelp that grows here has strong cold resistance. Kelp is salty in nature and taste, and long-term consumption can also warm and nourish kidney qi. Therefore, eating kelp in winter can increase the body's ability to resist cold. In addition, people's fear of cold is related to the body's lower intake of certain minerals. For example, the amount of calcium in the human body can directly affect the elasticity and excitability of the myocardium, blood vessels and muscles; iron deficiency in the blood often manifests as low heat production and low body temperature. Therefore, supplementing foods rich in calcium and iron can improve the body's ability to resist cold. Kelp is a treasure house for humans to absorb calcium and iron. Each 100 grams of kelp contains up to 1177 mg of calcium and 150 mg of iron. Therefore, eating kelp in winter has important health care effects on children, women and the elderly. Stewing pork and kelp together can maintain nutritional balance. The kelp polysaccharide in kelp can reduce blood cholesterol and triglycerides, prevent the formation and development of atherosclerotic plaques in the arterial blood vessels, and has anticoagulant effects. Therefore, this kelp-crusted pork dish is very suitable for eating in the cold winter. After eating this dish, your winter will really no longer be cold!
