News India Live, Digital Desk: Bamboo Rice Benefits: Today, our kitchen has no modern utensils like pressure cooker, non-stick embroidery and air fryer for cooking in our kitchen. They make our work fast and easy, but are they equally good for health? Probably not.
But have you ever thought that when it was not all, how did people cook food? In many tribal and rural areas of our country, even today, one such centuries old technology of cooking is alive, which not only makes the food wonderful, but also increases its nutrition. This is the way – Cook cooking in bamboo hollow stem.
You might have heard the name of “Bamboo Chicken” or “Bamboo Rice” on TV, a food festival or while walking. But the question arises whether it is just for taste and style, or really cooking inside bamboo increases its strength?
Let’s cover the secret of this ‘Desi Cooker’ today.
1. Nutrients do not go anywhere!
This is the biggest and scientific advantage of cooking in bamboo. When we boil the vegetables in water, many important and water dissolving nutrients like vitamin C and B complex flow into the same water. Many nutrients are also destroyed by frying or frying on high heat.
But bamboo acts like a thick and natural wall. When rice or vegetable is cooked on low heat, food Actually cooks in steamA sealed atmosphere is created inside the bamboo, so that the nutrients of food are locked inside it, they are unable to get out. So it would not be wrong to say that food cooked in bamboo is more nutritious than eating ripe in pan.
2. Low use of oil-spices
Because the food cooks slowly in its own moisture and steam, it does not require too much oil or ghee to cook it. It also tastes great in less oil and spices. This method is no less than a boon for those who want to lose weight or adopt a healthy lifestyle.
3. A unique and very fragrant aroma
This is the quality for which bamboo cooking is the most famous. When the bamboo is heated on low flame, it has a natural aroma and oil that slowly dissolves in the food. It gives the food a smokey and soil -like taste that cannot be repeated in any other pot.
4. Does bamboo also give up their nutrition?
Bamboo itself is a good source of many minerals like silica. Although no major research has been done on this, it is believed that some micronutrients of bamboo also come to eat during the cooking process, which make it more beneficial.
So next time you get a chance to eat food cooked in bamboo, do not consider it as a unique dish. It is the treasure of taste and health, which teaches us that our traditional methods were far ahead of today’s modern science.
