It is the season of eating pineapple. When you eat pineapple, you usually need to soak in salt water for a while. Why do pineapples soak in salt water? Do you know? There is an enzyme in pineapple that can cause allergies if eaten directly. The following small series introduces you to the reasons why the pineapple uses salt water.
Why is pineapple soaked in salt water?
Now is the season for the pineapple market. Sweet and juicy pineapple is rich in nutrients, not only clearing away heat, thirst, but also to help digestion. It is a fruitful and seasonal fruit. However, there is an enzyme in pineapple that, if eaten directly, may cause allergic reactions, symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting or headaches, and may also irritate the delicate skin of the oral mucosa and lips.
Eating pineapples and salt is an indispensable "ingredient." Many people must use salt water to brew before eating pineapples. Why does pineapple soak in salt water? There are two main reasons:
1, to avoid allergic reactions
Some people may have an allergic reaction after eating a pineapple. They will develop rapidly from 15 minutes to 1 hour after eating pineapple and suffer abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting or headache, dizziness, flushing of the skin, body itching, numbness of limbs and mouth. There are even a series of allergic reactions such as dyspnea and shock. It is customary to refer to this pineapple allergy as "pineapple poisoning" or "pineapple disease."
The main allergenic substance causing "pineapple disease" is "pineapple quinone enzyme." Saline can destroy the sensitized structure of "Pineapple enzyme", causing it to lose its toxicity to individual constitutional people. Therefore, when you eat pineapple, you can first peel the skin, remove the skin, and then open and soak in salt water so that you can reduce the pineapple enzyme allergy accident.
2, make the taste more sweet
The pineapple is best soaked for about half an hour, not only to avoid allergic accidents, but also to break down a portion of the pineapple's organic acids in salt water, making the pineapple taste sweeter. In addition, pineapple also contains oxalic acid, will affect the body's absorption of calcium and iron, soaking with salt will neutralize its acidity, reduce the possible harm to the body.
Brine bubble for half an hour
The pineapple soaking time is stressful. Before eating pineapple, it is best to use light salt water to soak. The soaking time is half an hour. If the time is not long enough, bromelain is not completely destroyed. If the time is too long, it will cause nutrient loss. It is also easy to breed bacteria. The pineapples sold on the street are often soaked in the same water a day, and they are prone to bacterial growth. Therefore, it is best to buy the whole pineapple home, soak it with salt water and eat it.
In addition, you can also boil the pulp and let it cool before eating. When Bromelain is heated at 100°C, more than 90% of it will be destroyed. After boiling, the overall taste will be softer than the salt water, and it will be better to add a little sugar to the frozen and frozen taste in the refrigerator.
Picking up pineapple has a long-standing “old three tricksâ€: First, look at the color. The leaves of cooked pineapple are generally dark brown. If you want to eat on the same day, you will buy a yellow and a medium-sized orange; if you let it for two days, eat it again. , to buy bright yellow, slightly green and shiny at both ends, this is generally eight minutes cooked. Second touch the hardness, gently press the pineapple scales, Microsoft's flexibility is better maturity, hard-line is unfamiliar, if pressed out of juice, it is rotten, it is best not to buy. At last smell the smell, the ripe pineapple can smell the faint fragrance from the skin, after the incision is more fragrant and fragrant, if you haven't cut it yet, it's cooked.
