They are the mature species of the herbaceous plant lentils, but what is white lentils like? I will tell you in detail later, and also tell you what white lentils are incompatible with. After understanding this, it will be particularly safe to eat white lentils. What are white beans like?White lentil is a kind of bean seed that is flat, oval or flat-oval in shape. It has a smooth surface and a faint luster. It is mostly amaranth white or light yellow in color. There is a raised white half-moon-shaped seed caruncle on one side of the white lentil. It has a very light taste, and has a strong bean flavor when chewed directly. What does white lentil counteract?1. White lentils and water spinach are incompatible There are very few foods in life that are incompatible with white lentils, so you can eat them with confidence. However, common water spinach is an ingredient that is incompatible with white lentils. This is because the calcium, iron, magnesium and other substances in white lentils will react with the oxalic acid in water spinach to produce some calcium oxalate. This calcium oxalate cannot be absorbed by the human body after entering the human body, and will form stones, affecting physical health. Therefore, white lentils and water spinach cannot be eaten together. 2. White lentils are toxic Although there are few foods that are incompatible with white lentils, white lentils themselves are a poisonous ingredient. They contain a natural saponin that can trigger a hemolytic reaction. This substance is naturally toxic and can cause nausea, vomiting, convulsions and other adverse symptoms after entering the human body. However, this substance will disappear after the lentils are cooked. Therefore, it is recommended that you must fry the white lentils before eating them. |
