The planting of Mung Bean, in Taiwan, is mostly in the southern counties and cities.
Because of the relationship between cost and profit, planting mung bean is subsidized in Taiwan.
However, if you think it is too much trouble to cultivate,
you possible in not to farming, still have the government subsidies .
This is also a strange phenomenon.
Farmland have not to cultivated - fallow, have government subsidies are available.
The value of mung beans:
Mung beans are regarded as traditional Chinese medicines in China. The main drug effect is detoxification, which excludes food toxins that are accumulated in the body when eating foods.
Therefore, eating more mung beans can eliminate the toxins in the diet absorbed by the body.
For mung bean cuisine, the most commonly eaten is the green bean soup.
In terms of efficacy, the green bean soup is cooked, the mung bean is cooked in the soup, and the effect is in the soup,
so , some mothers cooking the Mung bean soup for thier childrens.
Mung bean soup, let the children drink soup, he eats mung beans.
As a result, the child is still young, do not know the mother's intention, feel that the mother is not good to him, the mother eats mung beans, but he can only drink soup.
The only bad thing about cooking green bean soup is that if you don't add sugar, it will not good drink ,
so most people will add a lot of sugar, but add too much sugar, which is bad for the body.
It is okay not to add sugar, because I cooking green bean soup that no sugar.
Natural mung beans are not sugary.
Another point to pay special attention to is:
For bean food, be sure to soak the water first.
Because the bean itself is a seed, when he touches the water, he releases a hormone to promote the germination of the seed, and the hormone, for the human body, it is a toxin, but it is very small.
But still have to soak the water, let the beans release the hormone.
Soak in water for 1 hour,
It can't be soaked for too long. He will sprout when he is too long. Although mung bean sprouts can also be eaten, it will be more no good to eat.
After about 4 hours of soaking in water, some will germinate. If 12 hours, about 30% will sprout.
