The correct way to eat eggplant and eggplant cooking skills

There are many ways to eat eggplant, but if we take incorrect means to eat it, the consequences may have certain effects. Today I will tell you the correct way to eat eggplant:

Some correct ways to eat eggplant:

1. Eggplant is suitable for cooking methods such as roasting, braising, steaming, frying, and mixing, such as "Fish-flavored Eggplant", "Fried Eggplant Boxes", "Eggplant with Meat Slices", etc.

2. Old eggplants, especially old eggplants after autumn, contain more solanine, which is harmful to the human body and should not be eaten too much.

3. Fried eggplant will cause a large loss of vitamin P. Frying it after coating with batter can reduce this loss.

4. There is a light-colored ring where the eggplant sepals connect to the fruit. The wider and more obvious this ring is, the faster the eggplant fruit grows and the less aging it has. If the ring is not obvious, it means that the eggplant has stopped growing when it was harvested, and the eggplant is already old and cannot be eaten.

5. Eggplant is easily oxidized when exposed to heat, and its color will turn black, affecting its appearance. If you fry it briefly in a hot oil pan before cooking and then stir-fry it with other ingredients, it will not change color easily.

6. After cutting the eggplant, fry it in oil immediately before it changes color. This will fry out the excess moisture in the eggplant, making it easier to absorb the flavor when stewing.

7. After eggplant is cut into pieces or slices, it will quickly turn from white to brown due to oxidation. If you soak the cut eggplant immediately in water and then remove it from the water before cooking, you can avoid the eggplant from changing color.

Tips:

1. After the eggplant is peeled, the trace element iron in it will be oxidized by the air and easily turn black, which may affect the body's absorption of iron. Therefore, it is best not to peel the eggplant when eating.

2. Eggplant is cold in nature, and is suitable for people who are prone to prickly heat and boils, but people with weak spleen and stomach and asthma should not eat too much. Eggplant contains very low calories, so the elderly and obese people may wish to eat it often.
