Welcome, age of salads!
- The walnut tree will bear its fruit in June. He did a great job, it was worth the effort. With the first heats, the circulation and the heart need special care. It’s important to take steps to maintain hydration – water, infusion, and broths – and enrich your diet plan with fruits and vegetables. Diuretic broths are highly recommended to keep your feet and legs light. Prepared without salt or oil, prepared with onion, garlic, leeks and parsley.
My goal this month is to give you ideas for preparing delicious and nutritious salads prepared with seasonal and local fruits and vegetables. Orchards or orchards are full of colors, here are the ones that we will find in June: vegetables such as peppers, tomatoes, sausages, green beans and lettuce are at their best, offering a wide variety of textures, flavors and nutrients. We can also eat fruits such as eggplant, melon, watermelon, raspberry, blueberry, plum, banana, cherry, avocado and peach.
How do salads help us?
Salads in summer help us to hydrate the body, refresh it and improve digestion. They are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidant compounds.
If we chew the salads properly and eat them at the beginning of the meal, they will help us feel satisfied and improve our digestion. For those who have problems with chewing or have little time to eat, it is advisable to take care of the quantity and size of the dish to avoid digestive problems. To eat salads more slowly, it is recommended to take broths and soups first when you are hungry.
Steps to Preparing the Perfect Salad
Depending on the ingredients and the quantity, the salad may be the first dish, the supplement or a single dish.
The instruction is:
1. If the salad will be the first dish, follow points 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. If, on the other hand, the salad will be a single dish, add point 7.
2. Choose seasonal vegetables:leaves (uraza, canonigas), tomato and green beans (cooked).
3. Add a touch of color: carrot (raw, cooked), beet, peppers of different colors (raw, baked, preserved), asparagus, radishes...
4. Dare to add fruit and edible flowers. You will get attractive textures and colors. Remember that we eat through our eyes.
5. The addition of crisps to decorate the dishes is ideal: dried fruits, germinated fruits, seeds. There are the following ways to add carbohydrates to the dish: a small potato, a few spoons of rice or pasta, and a slice of bread.
6. Enjoy the salad. We have lemon juice or vinegar, fats (avocado, oil, alliol) and a variety of sauces to choose from, such as yoghurt sauce. In order not to spoil the salad, my recommendation is that each of you add sweeteners to your salad at the time of eating.
7. Protein is needed to make your salad more complete and satisfying. Here are some ideas: add eggs, legumes (peas, chicks, beans), bonito or canned sardines or white meats (cooked or grilled chicken).
