Familiar from childhood pastry - shiny,mouth-watering dry mini bagels. Today they also delight us with a huge assortment in the bakery sections, enticing with their vanilla aroma and appetizing forms. Few people would think about what the calories of dryers, looking at their small size. Unfortunately, these "babies" are not so harmless for our problem areas - the hips, waist and the one below it.
Caloric dryers: small and distant
No one will argue that drying is delicious,appetizing and quite hearty way to eat. That is how they are most often used - to "screw the worm." Especially good they go for tea or coffee or just as a snack.
In fact, the calorie content of the dryers is such that iteven higher than that of regular bread made from high-grade flour. In 100 g of ordinary dryers “is” almost 340 kcal, whereas in bread there are 100 less in bread - 240 kcal.
Калорийность сушек сравнима с калорийностью standard cream or biscuit cake of similar weight. You see that there is drying in the intervals between meals - quite dangerous for the figure, it is better to replace them with less high-calorie foods. However, there is one nuance in the dryers, which slightly reduces the number of calories “eaten with them”.
Drying - the product is dry and very light.Standard 5-6 pieces, which on average a person absorbs at a time, weigh only 20 g, which equals 75 kcal. If we confine ourselves to such a portion, nowhere will anything superfluous be postponed. The calorie content of saucer with poppy seeds is similar.
How to choose drying: look at the surface
Quality, fresh and cooked withcompliance with drying technology have a shiny, brownish, glossy surface. This effect is achieved thanks to a special recipe and features of the preparation of the dryers. Molded drying is first incubated for 30 minutes, then boiled in boiling water with the addition of molasses. Later in the furnace, the processes of starch gelatinization and protein denaturation occur, which are expressed in the gloss and shine of the drying surface. A molasses gives a delicious, ruddy crust to the finished product. You can check the quality of drying as follows: dip one piece in hot water for a couple of minutes. It will be quality if the size increases at least 3 times.
The benefits of drying. How to store and eat properly
Drying seems to be devoid of any usefulitems. But they are there - it is copper and manganese. There is so much copper in them that they fill most of a person’s daily need (copper protects hair from premature aging — gray hair). Manganese is indispensable for the joints and cartilage of the body. Therefore, they are recommended for growing organisms - small children. For them, there are special drying - "baby." However, the caloric content of the drying-baby in terms of 100 g is the same as that of conventional drying. There is in the dryers and vitamin B, which is destroyed by coffee, so it is more useful to drink their tea. But definitely not cold water or juices - dry dough in this combination can lead to problems with the intestines and the stomach. Well, and do not forget to eat them carefully - how many teeth were broken when they were used! Drying absorbs moisture very well, so they need to be stored separately from bread loaves.
