Now you can see hundreds of kinds of biscuits in the supermarket, which makes consumers more and more dazzled. How to choose a variety that suits you? Or how to eat is good for your health and can satisfy your hunger? What are the different choice requirements for the elderly and children?
Different selection requirements
If you eat cookies just to satisfy your desire and occasionally cook them, then you only need to choose the variety of cookies according to your taste. However, if your children like to eat cookies, they often steal cookies; Or cooking is inconvenient, and cookies are often used as staple food; Or think that some cookies can promote healthy demand, then you must choose the right variety of cookies. The size and shape of biscuits are not important in function, but we are more concerned with the ingredients of biscuits.
The main ingredients of biscuits are flour, grease and sugar. In order to make cookies more crisp and sweet, eggs, milk powder, essence and other substances may also be added.
Flour and sugar are easy to control, and the main influencing factor is fat. Different kinds of biscuits have different fat contents, and fat is the most likely to affect health.
High-fiber biscuits and soda biscuits
Let's take high-fiber biscuits and soda biscuits as examples. The fat consumption of high-fiber biscuits is low, about 4% (per kilogram), and that of soda biscuits is 9 ~ 12%. From the point of view of avoiding high calorie and high fat, it is wise to choose high fiber biscuits. However, because the high-fiber biscuits contain about 2-3% bran (containing a lot of dietary fiber) and the fat content is not high, they will be rough and have a poor taste. If it is not only for health reasons, most people will choose soda cookies when eating cookies. However, the sodium content of soda biscuits (including sodium in salt and baking soda) is high, so the use of soda biscuits should be controlled for people with unstable blood pressure or renal insufficiency.
Because the taste of cellulose is poor, in order to improve the taste of cellulose, some people think of increasing the amount of oil in high-fiber biscuits to achieve the effect of shortening. Although this method improves the taste of high-fiber biscuits, it completely loses the health care function of high-fiber biscuits.
