When I was young, my grandma and grandpa lived with us. Our daily breakfast was basically a bowl of braised noodles ! When eating, I would always see my grandpa taking a bite of noodles and a bite of garlic; it can be said that a bowl of noodles would be inedible without a bite of garlic!

Seeing my grandpa eating garlic like this, I couldn’t help but asked out of curiosity: Grandpa, why do you eat so much garlic in one meal? Grandpa said: Eating garlic can help the body sterilize bacteria, and it can also be eaten! However, Lao Yu was too young at that time, and even a little bit of garlic would make him feel spicy. However, I remembered what my grandfather said!

Now that I have grown up and have a family, I also like to eat garlic when I eat! Whether you are going out with friends to make skewers and have barbecue, or eating braised noodles at home, garlic is a must-eat!

Garlic is rich in allicin , which can improve the conversion and absorption efficiency of vitamin B1, so that our brains can obtain more energy; secondly, garlic also contains sulfur compounds, etc., which have strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects ; It can also promote gastric acid secretion and assist gastrointestinal digestion and absorption!

Although there are many benefits of eating garlic regularly, Lao Yu would like to remind everyone that when buying garlic, be sure not to buy the following five types of garlic. They are either spoiled or not fresh, and eating them will not do any good! Let’s take a look below!

Type 1: Do not buy garlic with black mold spots.

When many people buy garlic, they see black mold spots on the outer skin of the garlic and think it does not matter. They have to peel it and eat it anyway. However, as long as there are black mold spots on garlic, Lao Yu really doesn’t recommend buying it!

You must know that garlic has a strong inhibitory and killing effect on mold. Once garlic becomes moldy, it means that the garlic has begun to deteriorate and cannot be eaten. And it seems that there is only a little mold, but in fact, many molds have spread to There are other locations for garlic, so it is not recommended to buy such garlic!

The second type: Do not buy garlic with sprouted garlic cloves.

In addition to garlic with black mold spots, there is another kind of garlic that has started to turn green, and some even have sprouts and leaves. It is not recommended to buy such garlic!

Because once garlic sprouts, its nutrients are basically on the buds and leaves, and the nutrients of the garlic clove itself have been lost! I believe that many of my friends who cook frequently have encountered sprouted garlic. After peeling off the garlic cloves, the garlic cloves inside have become empty. Therefore, even if such garlic is not broken, it has lost the meaning of eating!

The third type: Don’t buy fluffy garlic

Old Yu remembers that every time when buying garlic, his mother would remind him: remember to buy dry garlic! At first I thought that dried garlic was just the airy garlic kind.Because the water inside has dried up, the weight will naturally become lighter! However, after I bought it home, I discovered that the flimsy garlic I bought was basically empty except for the garlic coat!

Even if there is no time, the garlic is dry, tasteless and nutritious! Therefore, please remember that if a head of garlic feels light and fluffy in your hand, just put it down and don’t buy it!

The fourth type: don’t buy wet garlic.

In addition, don’t buy flimsy garlic, and don’t buy wet garlic either! Remember not to listen to the vegetable shop owner: This is fresh garlic, that’s it! Lao Yu only realized after buying it several times that there was something fishy about it!

Wet garlic, firstly, weigh the same garlic, and this kind of garlic will be heavier; secondly, the garlic coat is moist, which is very unsuitable for storage, and it is easy to become moldy, so when you see wet garlic Remember not to buy it!

The fifth type: Don’t buy garlic with cracks

Sometimes, when we are selecting garlic, we see that it has a plump appearance and moderate hardness, but there is a crack on the garlic clove. Many friends will make do with it and buy it! In fact, I don’t recommend buying garlic like this! Because this kind of garlic already has cracks, if it is not eaten as soon as possible, it will deteriorate in a short period of time!

How to reduce the taste in your mouth after eating garlic?

As we all know, garlic is delicious, but after eating it, others will feel very heavy! Because the smell is too pungent, so how can we reduce or remove the smell of garlic in our mouth?

1. Take a few mouthfuls of milk after eating garlic! If you are a friend who likes to drink milk, after eating garlic, you can take a sip of milk and hold it in your mouth. After holding it for a while, swallow it, take another sip, and hold it for a while. After repeated several times, you will find that The garlic is basically gone!

2, chew peanuts! If you have friends with peanuts around, you can chew them slowly and chew on a few peanuts to allow the spicy elements in garlic to combine with protein, which can also remove the garlic taste in your mouth!

As for chewing gum, I have tried it, but the effect is not as good as chewing milk or peanuts! Therefore, friends who like to eat garlic may wish to try these two methods next time!

and above are what I will share with you today. I hope it can help you! If you have a better way to remove the smell of garlic, please leave a message in the comment area. Finally, thank you for watching, thank you!
