Turkey? I also hesitated

in #food5 years ago


Turkey? I also hesitated, after the information I had received and the recipes - I adopted lovingly.

In my kitchen we usually go into chicken, in all shapes and sizes, minced, sliced, market and more ...

But I was invited to a cooking workshop in India, at first I was skeptical and not closed about what I was going to study and as the minutes and hours went by I fell in love with taste and recipes.

What's more, I discovered that turkey is enriched with iron, contains protein, amino acid of B12 and iron.

As a general rule, turkey meat is leaner meat . The percentage of fat in a turkey is about 3-5 percent, while poultry is 6-8 percent, and cattle, about 5-30 percent, depends, of course, on the share.

In addition to other types of meat India contains a protein of very high biological value. That is, it contains all the amino acids that the human body needs to build and maintain.

The turkey meat also provides a high intake of vitamins and minerals .

100 g turkey meat contain:

? Approximately half of the recommended daily intake of vitamin B12 (about 0.3 to 1.6 micrograms per day for adult 2.4-2.6 micrograms) is necessary for the formation of blood, proper functioning of the nervous system, proper bone construction and the prevention of osteoporosis.

? Iron - about 1.4 milligrams when the recommendations for daily adult consumption is 8 mg daily (note that the recommendation for women of reproductive age is 18 mg a day). In addition, studies show that animal iron is better absorbed than iron from plant.

? Another important ingredient that India has in large quantities is selenium. 29-38 micrograms per 100 g, compared with 20-24 micrograms in poultry and 30-35 micrograms per morning, with the recommended intake for adults being 55 micrograms per day.lenium plays an important role in the human body, it is necessary in protecting DNA, acts as an antioxidant, To help prevent cancer, to prevent cardiovascular disease, to maintain healthy thyroid and brain function.

Molly Levitt, CEO of the Poultry Council : "In light of global processes promoting lean meat consumption, the Poultry Council continues to lead a move to promote turkey consumption. The Israelis know India mainly through the shawarma stands - a popular and beloved dish outside the home, but we have set a goal to increase domestic consumption while addressing a variety of culinary, health and economic issues, since the price of turkey is lower than the price of red meat. So if we add to this the variety of uses and culinary tastes that allow the use of turkey meat and health values ​​- we create a winning equation for the Israeli household "
