What nutrition does yuba have?

1, yuba, a kind of film solidified on the surface of cooked soybean milk, can be eaten raw or dried, and is a common food raw material in East Asia. The word "tofu" first appeared in Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica. Li Shizhen said that when soybean milk was heated, a film appeared on its surface, and it was taken out and dried to get tofu.

2. The yuba is rich in protein and has low moisture content; It also contains nutrients similar to soybeans, such as soybean protein, dietary fiber and carbohydrates.

3. The yuba has a good brain-nourishing function and can prevent the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease. This is because the content of glutamic acid in yuba is very high, which is 2~5 times that of other beans or animal foods, and glutamic acid plays an important role in brain activity. In addition, the phospholipids and soap anhydride contained in yuba can also reduce the cholesterol content in blood and prevent hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis.

4, yuba is rich in iron, and is easily absorbed by the human body, which has a certain effect on iron deficiency anemia.

Second, the edible taboo of yuba

Although yuba has high nutritional value, some people, such as nephritis and renal insufficiency, had better eat less, otherwise it will aggravate the condition. Patients with diabetes, acidosis, gout or taking tetracycline, hypoglycemic and other drugs should also be careful to eat.

2. Due to the different production methods, the heat of yuba is higher than other bean products, and the heat per 100g is 457 calories (82 calories for tofu, 0/40 calories for dried tofu and 244 calories for oily tofu). Therefore, people who need to control their weight had better not eat yuba often, or reduce the intake of staple food appropriately when eating yuba.

3, yuba can not be eaten with foods with high oxalic acid content, because yuba contains high calcium, and calcium and oxalic acid can generate insoluble or insoluble calcium oxalate, which affects the absorption of calcium. For example, spinach, bamboo shoots, amaranth and other foods with high oxalic acid content, but if spinach, bamboo shoots and other foods with high oxalic acid content are cooked first, most of the oxalic acid can be removed to reduce their influence, and they can also be eaten together.

4, yuba should not be eaten with onions, which will affect the absorption of calcium; It is also not suitable for eating with honey, which will damage hearing and cause diarrhea.

5. If you are allergic to bean food, eating yuba may cause allergic symptoms such as redness, frequent diarrhea, indigestion, headache, sore throat and asthma, so such people should also avoid eating yuba.

Edible guide:

Soak yuba in clear water (cool in summer and warm in winter) for 3-5 hours, and make it into meat, vegetarian, roasted, fried, cold salad, soup, etc. The food is fragrant and refreshing, and the meat and vegetables have their own flavors. Yuba is suitable for long-term storage, but it should be kept in a dry and ventilated place. The yuba in dog days can be dried in the sun and blown by the cool breeze several times.
