Грибы издревле считаются ценнейшим пищевым product, as they are a source of a large number of nutrients and minerals. During the fast, our ancestors replaced mushrooms with meat. And on the royal table these gifts of nature occupied a special honorable place. According to their nutritional value, mushrooms are many times superior to some vegetables and fruits, and their rich chemical composition brings them closer to food products of animal origin. For example, the caloric content of broth from white dry mushrooms exceeds meat. Procurement of mushrooms was carried out at all times, and today quiet hunting does not lose its popularity. Dachniki during the mushroom season get the opportunity to collect for future use this valuable food product.
The proportion of proteins in fungi is about 58-75%dry matter. Mushrooms are very rich in amino acids such as leucine, tyrosine, glutamine and arginine. There are a lot of potassium and phosphorus in them, as well as enzymes - lipase, amylase, oxy reductase and proteinase. Many species have valuable bactericidal properties.
Caloric content of fungi, despite their highnutritional value, is relatively small, so they are perfect for those people who observe a low-calorie diet. The greatest number of calories is contained in fresh and boiled mushrooms. But in fact, the caloric content of fungi depends largely on the way they are cooked. When frying, most of the fat, belonging to vegetable oil, is absorbed into the mushrooms, and their caloric content rises many times. However, even when dried, they retain enough calories.
Калорийность грибов свежих, например, таких как champignons, mushrooms, chanterelles, maslata, mushrooms and honey agarics, does not exceed 24 kcal per 100 g of product. The most low-calorie are chanterelles, in which only 13 kcal per 100 g. More calories are ceps (34kcal), oyster mushrooms (38 kcal). And the calorie content of dried mushrooms exceeds 200 kcal. For example, dried drushers contain 231 kcal, white dried mushrooms - 286 kcal, shiitake dried - 331 kcal.
К сожалению, грибы – это такой продукт, который в fresh form can not be stored for a long time, and therefore immediately after collection it is necessary to heat or dry it. As a result of several experimental experiments, it was found that the calorie content of mushrooms decreases with heat treatment, and if you do not add fat to the prepared dish, you can get a nutritious and dietary mushroom dish. Perhaps the most popular dish with mushrooms is the julienne, the calorie content of which is not high, even taking into account the products used in the recipe.
For the preparation of classic julien with mushroomsuse mushrooms champignons, onions, fatty sour cream, hard cheese, salt and pepper to taste. This dish is prepared in special pots, in which it is served individually to each eater. Professional chefs advise to prepare a julien not with sour cream, but with bechamel sauce or with 22% cream. In this case the cheese should not just melt, but also bake until a ruddy crust.
Most types of mushrooms are very tasty in salted andmarinated form. Solyat almost all mushrooms, but more often - red-haired and mushrooms, but you can salt podberezoviki, boletus, chanterelles and russula. For marinating a white fungus, a buttercup, a mushroom, a russet, a chanterelle, a green mushroom, a moss, a grill and a favorite we like are suitable. Marinated mushrooms, calorie content of which hardly reaches 24 kilocalories per 100 grams of the finished product, are used to prepare saltwort, festive and casual salads, decorations for potato dishes and as an addition to meat.
Of course, when it comes to preparing a festive menu, it's rare what kind of hostess will take into account the caloric content of mushrooms and try to prepare dietary dishes, unless a special situation requires it.
