How I Salad love! Autumn , Winter , Summer Spring, at any time of year you can whip up something delicious. Admittedly, the last few days were more the exception than the rule, as I caught a thick cold. I really haven’t been sick in a long time. But then my immune system couldn’t cope with the trip to Basel. Endless train rides, hotel rooms and long days in large halls with air conditioning. At least the worst is over and I’m back on the road to recovery. It’s about time that new Recipes come, right? My head is definitely full of ideas and in the coming weeks you can look forward to many delicious news.
YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH OF VEGAN SALADS
I saw a funny post the other day. More precisely, it was a picture with a Salad of an omnivore (meat eater) and a Veganers (I probably do not have to explain at this point what this is). The Salad of the meat eater was so a very small bowl with green Salad , a few carrot strips and a touch of dressing. The vegan had a giant bowl of many different types of lettuce, veggies, seeds and a phenomenally creamy Dressing .
Sulphoraphane, the health hack for advanced users
Here’s another little health hack for those interested: broccoli, like many other cabbages, radishes, arugula, etc., contains a very powerful phytochemical called sulphoraphane. This is said to be very effective against cancer cells according to relevant sources such as nutritionfacts.org. The problem is that this substance is lost when broccoli is cooked. There are two methods to restore the effect:
- Cut broccoli and then let stand for 30-40 minutes. The sulphoraphane simply forms over time when the vegetables are cut.
- No time? Then there’s the yellow mustard seed trick, which I also use in the video. Simply best fresh Mösern and sprinkle over the vegetables. Add a portion to the dressing, or pour over the slightly cooled vegetables. Mustard seed is a raw myrosinase supplier and ensures that abundant sulphoraphane is replicated.
Who loves creamy vegan salad dressings? Me, Me, Me!
Can you go wrong with today’s Recipe do anything wrong? Not really, but here are my top tips for a super good result anyway. For the creamy dressing, here’s what to consider:
- Use Blendtec, MagiMix, Vitamix or a similar, powerful blender
- Be sure to soak dried tomatoes (otherwise it’s impossible to get these things small).
- Soak cashews well before Your blender should not be extremely powerful
- Start with a low rotation speed of the blender and slowly increase to the highest level
HOW HEALTHY ARE DRIED TOMATOES?
Dried tomatoes are definitely very healthy and especially full of flavor. They are, after all, tomatoes minus water, so a concentrated amount of micronutrients distributed on very little weight. TIP: I prefer dried tomatoes always without oil, so as pure as possible. Oil in itself is very high in calories, so I prefer to dose it myself.
Here’s a quick rundown of what’s in pure, sun-dried tomatoes:
- Lycopene (secondary plant substance) that has antioxidant effects and promotes a healthy cardiovascular system. can support
- Biotin and Pantothenic acid
- Potassium and Magnesium
- Iron, zinc, Iodine and manganese
- Vitamin B1, B6, C and E
I would say go for it with this rich Salad ! Suitable are Spelt bread roll or a fresh baked spelt bread . Otherwise together with Potato salad , Favorite salad or a Caprese perfect for a vegan buffet.
