Today I'll tell you how to cook a simple salad of young zucchini, carrots and herbs. The recipe for this healthy raw food salad is so simple that it's even ridiculous to call it a recipe. ????
In the modern world, people are used to eating vegetables three hundred times steamed, fried and boiled ... And they don’t even realize how tasty and healthy it is to eat them raw.
Well, why, why is it necessary to cook caviar from zucchini or fry them in oil and serve with mayonnaise? This is not our way. We choose health! ????
So, let's take a small young zucchini (1 pc), medium-sized carrots (1 pc) and some fresh herbs (dill, parsley, cilantro, basil will do - in short, what is at hand and what do you like).
I like to eat only freshly prepared food. I read from Galina Sergeevna Shatalova and in other sources that the use of the gifts of nature that have not been oxidized is the most beneficial for health. Therefore, I calculate the amount of food so that those present at the table can eat everything at once. By the way, I cut the salad right before eating - so that fifteen minutes, no more, pass from the moment of cutting to the "kneading" of the salad. It's a skill though! ????
Grind all the components (zucchini and carrots - rub, greens - cut) and mix. You can salt and season with vegetable oil of the first extraction (better - olive, but you can also sunflower, corn, any, the taste of which does not interrupt the taste of vegetables). If you want, you can add some garlic.
When cooking for myself alone, I do not salt or season with oil. It tastes so good to me too. If my husband, son or guests eat the salad, then I fill it, focusing on the tastes of the eaters. ????
A small note. For those who prioritize pleasure over health, I will say: the most awesome dressing is obtained by mixing several flavors - sour, sweet, salty and spicy. Therefore, delicious salads can be dressed with a mixture of vegetable oil, sugar, vinegar, salt and mustard. Moreover, sugar should be no less than salt. ????
But you and I, dear readers of the Back to Health blog, are conscious people. We eat not to please the belly, but for the benefit of health, right? ????
Bon appetit and stay healthy!
For those who are interested in how I have so much time to cook fresh every time, I’ll tell you. We eat very simply, modestly and naturally. We hardly eat meat. I don't eat potatoes and bread (but men do). The basis of our family's diet is raw vegetables, fruits, greens, cereals on the water, sometimes light vegan soups or some kind of pasta with mushrooms. Everything is simple and does not take time.
At the same time, I masterfully know how to cook classic Ukrainian borscht, and cutlets, and bake pies, and even make homemade white cheese like mozzarella. I used to cook all this and we indulged in family gluttony in our cozy nest. So over the decades, we gradually “ate” both extra pounds and.
Realizing that we ourselves are the culprits of the problems and that by changing the way of life, you can return everything (and harmony, and health, and youth), we deliberately limited ourselves and became completely different people. Raw food, veganism, physical education are wonderful healers. (Oh, something I broke up in an article about a salad of zucchini and carrots ... ????)
