Does the nutritional value of frozen or canned foods change?

According to the results of the Consumer Research conducted by the International Food Information Council (IFIC) in 2016, 6 out of 100 individuals are concerned about the consumption of processed foods such as frozen or canned foods.

According to the results of the Consumer Research conducted by the International Food Information Council (IFIC) in 2016, 6 out of 100 individuals are concerned about the consumption of processed foods such as frozen or canned foods. The idea that frozen or canned foods, especially vitamin-mineral content is completely lost, is quite common. What does the scientific data say about it? Sabri Ülker Foundation discusses how food storage methods such as ice cream and canning used in vegetables and fruits affect nutritional values.

Farm to fork

Vegetables and fruits are very rich in nutrients when they ripen and are harvested. However, the water content (water activity) of the harvested vegetables and fruits accelerates the deterioration process. It can take 1-2 weeks for these vegetables and fruits to reach the markets or markets, and then meet with the last consumer, and then take a few days to consume. During this time, the conditions in which vegetables and fruits are stored (temperature, humidity) can increase both deterioration and loss of nutritional value. Particularly due to water loss, loss of B group vitamins and loss of vitamin C may occur due to waiting at room temperature.

Vegetables, frozen and deep-frozen

Fruits and vegetables are stored at + 4 ° C (refrigerator temperature) until frozen. In order to minimize the loss of nutritional value, the production sites are generally determined from the locations close to the planting areas. Foods stored at + 4 ° C are taken into production after 8 hours at the latest. Each nutrient according to their characteristics, peeling, sorting, such as after the process of degradation and enzymes involved in the degradation of food to stop the activity of boiling and fast cooling is applied. The nutrients are then freeze-dried individually at -40 ° C.

This process allows frozen vegetables and fruits to be stored in the freezer until the expiration date. At home, you can boil vegetables for a short time, cool them and keep them in the freezer. In the fast freezing process carried out in the production facilities, unlike the application in the home, it is provided that the threshold of -5 ° C, where the loss of nutritional value starts, is maintained and the nutritional value is maintained.

Canned vegetables and fruits

Vegetables and fruits are boiled for 2-8 minutes depending on the temperature applied in the range of 85-98ºC depending on the size of the grains after washing, sorting, chopping, peeling or removing the seeds. Thus, sterilization is ensured, the activities of the enzymes causing the degradation are stopped and the nutritional value is maintained.

What does the scientific data say?

The American Nutrition Society says that frozen, canned or dried vegetables and fruits can help maintain nutritional value, extend shelf life and thus support food safety. According to the results of the 2003-2008 American Nutrition and Health Survey, canned, frozen and dried vegetables and fruits contribute to approximately 30 percent of pulp / fiber intake, 50 percent of vitamin C intake, and 45 percent of potassium intake.

In addition, it is reported that canned and frozen vegetables and fruits are important for the nutrition of vegetarian and vegan individuals and for providing nutritional diversity. All these results help to maintain adequate nutritional values, and to ensure adequate and balanced nutrition by providing food safety and diversity.

Freezing method: Things to know about freezing and thawing food

The freezers and dipfrizzes have become so life-saving that we use them as the cellar of our collective shopping rather than a last resort. Because there is no possibility of consuming the twenty-piece hamburger meat we buy in bulk to be cheap. Is it healthy to freeze food? Experts say yes; however, we need to ensure that we understand the method of freezing food correctly.

We have searched for Uplifers readers who need to be careful about freezing and thawing food. Here are five tips to keep you from our freezers:

Microorganisms become inactive at 0 degrees.
Freezing is a method of preserving food by putting microorganisms into sleep that cause food spoilage and also cause food poisoning. Bacteria do not die at 0 degrees, they only become inactive. The nutritional value of foods is maintained during the freezing process.

Food stored at 0 degrees is safe for a long time; however, not all food is suitable for freezing. Eggs and canned food are not frozen, while lettuce, cream and mayonnaise are frozen and thawed.


The maximum freezing time varies from food to food.
The fact that it is safe to consume a food does not guarantee that its quality will remain the same. Each food may not have the same taste and texture when thawed. It is suitable to store frozen hamburgers for 3-4 months, cooked food for about 6 months, frozen meat, whole chicken and turkey for one year. Therefore, if the product you put in the freezer does not have an expiration date, you can take notes and monitor whether the food you are defrosting is safe.

How to dissolve food?
IMPORTANT: When thawing food, it is very dangerous to remove it from the dipfriz and put it directly at room temperature. It's a healthy way to get food into the refrigerator, though it may dissolve more slowly. A slightly faster method would be to take the food out and put it in cold water. If your home has a microwave oven, you can also use the thawing program. However, when some products are thawed quickly, their texture may change, such as bread.

Watch out for frozen fish.
When buying frozen fish, be sure to take them in vacuum bags or bags with multiple layers of ice. When you want to freeze fresh fish, you can immerse it in cold water until it is covered with ice about half a centimeter thick, then store it in plastic refrigerator bags for up to 6 months.

Can food be frozen once thawed?
If the product is raw, it can be re-frozen without baking after thawing in the refrigerator. When a previously cooked and frozen food is thawed in the refrigerator, you can also freeze the inedible portion again. It is important not to dip the food again at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

How to freeze parsley for the winter?

Summer - is not only time to relax and stay near the bodies of water, but also to prepare for autumn and winter. In the meantime, all the hostesses began to make various gaps little by little. Traditionally, many different flavors are harvested for the winter. Today we will talk about how to prepare parsley in winter, because this component not only creates cooking, but also creates facial masks as well as decoctions and tinctures. Of course, parsley can also be dried or pickled, but the taste of such greens will be completely different.


In winter, the presence of frozen greens comes in handy, dishes interspersed with parsley, very nice and not only on a festive table. Recipes freezing greens have been around for quite a long time, today we're looking at some of these.

Foliage collection methods

Parsley can be frozen in three different ways. These methods are the simplest and most common, you can choose any of the offered.

Parsley can be frozen in bunches. To do this, you need to collect the greens in a few bundles and then fold them into normal plastic bags and put them in the freezer. Usually in the form of frozen parsley and strips. In this case, the greens are pre-cut into strips and then placed on the cling film. Then, wrap the greens in a sausage and put them in the freezer.
The greens can be easily recovered in the form of ice cubes in winter. For this you need to chop parsley, but not too small, so it fits into ice molds. After that, dissociate into cells and fill with water. The mold is then placed in the refrigerator in the refrigerator. When the cubes are ready, you can pour them into a plastic bag and put them in the freezer for storage. Cubes not only with water, but also with melted butter. The cooking mechanism is the same as in the first case, only the mold is filled with butter.
Parsley can also be frozen in a chopped form. This method is often no different from the first, only the greens are crushed.

The second method of freezing greens is very popular among hostesses today, and they consider ice cubes to be the most suitable method. It is very convenient to take ice cubes and add them to the first classes when cooking soup.

In general, it is recommended that all freezing methods be used at once or depending on how the greens will be used in the future. For example, ice cubes are best suited for cooking first courses. If you only use parsley to add to the french fries or to add any snacks, it is best to freeze the chopped parsley. If the greens in your kitchen are only used to decorate dishes, branches or bunches of frost are perfect.

How to keep parsley fresh?

Today we will take a closer look at the third way to freeze the greens. For the whole process we need:

parsley;
cellophane bags, zip type ziplock bags or green storage trays;
cutting board and a good sharp knife;
paper napkins or towels for drying parsley;
Water to wash greens.

For the best preservation of greens in winter, it is best to freeze, because it does not lose color and flavor and appears quite fresh after thawing. You can buy two types of parsley for ice cream: regular and curly. Both species have a bright and very rich color and a distinctive aroma.

To prepare the greens properly, be sure to follow some guidelines:

It is very important to freeze fresh parsley. If there is an opportunity, the parsley must have just emerged from the garden.
The greens must be sorted before freezing. It is important to remove all damaged or dry leaves, such as damaged and yellow leaves, as well as any leaves.
It is very important to rinse before freezing before the greens. Prepare the parsley with water in a deep container and wait for a while and then rinse thoroughly with water under the tap.
Also note that parsley must be thoroughly dried before freezing, as the extra liquid in the parsley is completely unnecessary. It is suitable for ordinary kitchen towels or paper napkins for this purpose. We often use thick paper towels to dry the leaves.

Of course, he has heard that a special shock freezing technique is used in factories where many half-cooked dishes are made. This method allows you to preserve nutrients and vitamins in the composition of products. If your fridge freezer has a quick freezing option, it is better to use it, so that the parsley freezes quickly and remains as fresh and useful as possible.

We will use chopped greens for harvesting. It is better to take only green leaves, but it is better to cut hard stems. Chopping parsley, collecting in small bundles, saves time.If you want, the herbs can chop in a blender, but with an old knife is still better. It should not be cut too small, it is enough to do it normally, as you usually chop in the cooking process. It is better to put the chopped greens in a specially prepared bowl.

Once all the greens have been cut, you must place them in the storage tanks. We will use regular plastic bags for this. We make small bags with greens, we have a bag. Before tying the bags and placing them in the freezer, you must release all air from the bag. This will significantly reduce the space available in the freezer and keep the package intact.

You can also store spices in trays and collect not only parsley but also other greens such as sorrel. You can also freeze parsley in small bags with a zippered buckle. Such an arrangement is very convenient because gaps are obtained in batches. The freezer will not have to pick up all the greens, just take one bag for one-time use.

If you are saving greens on a tray, it is better to wrinkle with a hand beforehand, so that more greens will fit into the container. When frozen in trays, you can also use the food cover first and close it first. After the parsley is carefully packaged, the trays are put into the freezer.

35 Tips for Healthy Eating to Add Value to Your Life

There are many important points to be considered about nutrition which is one of the most important elements of healthy life. That is why if you want your food not to be wasted or to return to you as vitamins and health, not as harm; take a look at our list.
1. Seasonal products should be preferred


We should choose the products suitable for the season. We should not take dents, rotten, germinated products. If we need to use a product that is not necessarily suitable for the season, it is healthier to use frozen products.

2. Packages must be checked


Foods in torn, broken, crushed packaging should never be purchased. Foods in this type of packaging always carry the risk of contamination.
3. Attention! Expiration date!


The expiration date of the product must be checked. This is because microorganisms can grow in expired products; the product may have lost its nutritional value and has deteriorated; The flavor and physical appearance of the product may be altered.
4. Damages of plastic containers


We should never keep food in plastic containers. Even and even experts recommend that we do not insert anything made of plastic into our house. Those used for food (cheese, yogurt, etc.) are produced in such a way as to cause less harm to health. But these are also disposable. Use of the product in the container until the expiry date is valid. After that it should be discarded, not used a second time. Glass containers are the healthiest.

5. Unknown danger: Aluminum foil


In aluminum containers and dishes cooked with aluminum foil, too much aluminum passes to the food. Aluminum is harmful not only in cooking but also in putting food into it. It causes bone and kidney diseases. Increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
6. Frozen foods should be used without thawing


Ready-to-use frozen or some of our own frozen foods at home should be used without thawing. This is especially true for food such as peas, ravioli, leaf wrap and ice cakes.

But meat, chicken, ground beef, fish, such as food should be used after thawing; these products must be removed from the freezer and placed on the upper shelves of the lower section of the refrigerator (even in the newly produced refrigerators there is a section for the removal of the products from the freezer and there is a section for a healthy thawing) and they should be thawed there slowly.

Germs grow in foods dissolved at room temperature. If we need to use the food very urgently; cold water should be put in a container and the food in the refrigerator bag should be used in this container after waiting for a while to dissolve a little.
7. Danger of careless handling: Teflon!


We must be very careful when using kitchen utensils made of Teflon. When using them, we should prefer tools made of wooden spoons or Teflon (to prevent scratching). The presence of scratches on the Teflon and their contact with metal and iron kitchen utensils (knives, forks, spoons) are very harmful to health.

When you consume food cooked in scratched teflon, you may feel nothing bad and think 'nothing happened'. But the effects of this are returning to us as accumulated diseases in our body. The Ministry of Health, even in the past years because of the health damage due to the use of teflon items had even decided to seize. That's why we should be very careful when using our kitchen utensils made of Teflon.
8. Microwave oven should not be used for cooking


Microwave ovens are best used for heating food, not cooking. The emitted rays can also be harmful. Therefore, you should not stay near when using the microwave.

9. Choose olive oil for frying


Boiling is the most healthy way of cooking. Steaming, grilling and baking are other healthy cooking methods. We need to cook the food without roasting. The experts even recommend that the onion be put together with the food without being roasted. Maybe you will say that the food made by roasting is more delicious, but experts say that cooking in the ways we mentioned is healthier.

Experts do not recommend cooking foods that are fried, especially because they burn fat and carcinogenic substances are formed. But if you want to fry, you should use at least olive oil to minimize the damage. Olive oil; Due to its high antioxidant content, it is the highest oil resistant to high temperature at high temperature oxidation. The boiling temperature is 220 degrees and the chemical structure does not deteriorate up to this degree.
10. Correctly clean cutting boards and blades


When we cut meat, chicken, salami, sausage and sausage on cutting boards; after use, we must wash these boards and the knife we ​​use by disinfecting them (using germicidal products such as bleach). It should stand at least 5 minutes in this way and then wash.

Never use another product to cut the product without disinfection. Kitchen utensils such as kitchen boards, knives and spoons that come into contact with raw foods should not be contacted with cooked foods. And the spoon used to taste each dish should be different. And that spoon should not be used again even if it is not to wash the dish before it is washed.
11. Importance of refrigerator bag


We should not use any other bag than the refrigerator bag for the food we put in the freezer. Because refrigerator bags are produced in a health-friendly way. Recently, glass containers have been manufactured for use in cold-resistant, freezer storage. It is healthier to use them.

Food storage times vary in the freezer. So we need to know which food can stay in the freezer for how long. The expiration date applies to products in the freezer. We must not keep products past the expiration date in the freezer.
12. How long should the food be stored at room temperature?


Cooked food; It should not be kept outside at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Of course this does not apply to 2 hours full summer temperatures. Its duration should be shorter. In summer heat, the food should be put in the refrigerator when it cools a little. In the heat of summer and when we need to go somewhere urgently, we must fill the pot with cold water into a large container and allow it to cool down more quickly and cool the food before leaving the house.

13. Cooked food should be consumed fresh


It is most healthy to consume our food immediately as fresh. Each time the food is heated, it causes vitamin loss. We must make our meals fresh every day and consume them immediately. But we have done more, increased or we have the next day, we have to do today. Then we just have to heat up all the food, not the whole pot. We shouldn't keep food waiting too long, even in the refrigerator. It should be tried to consume meat dishes within 2 days and olive oil dishes within 3 days.
14. Sausage, salami, sausage…


Milk, yogurt, salami, sausage, cream, such as perishable food should not be kept outside for too long. We need to get out of the fridge and consume in a very short time without waiting too long outside. These products should be placed in the refrigerator within 2 hours of purchase (unless it is very hot).

Cold storage bags are sold in the markets. These are bags designed for food that we receive from the freezer and perishable food. It maintains the coldness of the product for several hours and ensures that frozen products do not thaw. We should never put sausages in our children's diet.
15. Let's fly to Temel Reis


Spinach and any food made with spinach should be consumed immediately or in a very short time after cooking. In waiting spinach, “nitrite” is formed, which is very harmful to human beings.
16. Danger of “solanin eki in potato


Germinated, tuberous potatoes should not be used. These include “solanin” and are harmful to health.

17. Oil into carrot juice


Carrot is an oil-soluble vegetable. Because it dissolves in oil, even when we prepare carrot juice, we should put 1-2 drops of oil (olive oil is always preferred for health).
18. Dried legumes should be cooked well


Dried legumes such as beans, chickpeas and lentils; When cooked well, it is easier to digest and the protein value increases. Dried legumes other than red lentils are soaked in water at room temperature for 8-10 hours and then cooked in the expected water; because the nutrients in the legumes have been transferred to this water.

If there is a patient and potassium limitation is desired, boiling water should be poured and hot water should be added again during cooking. However, if the boiling water of the legumes is discarded, the losses in the vitamins and minerals of group B increase. Hard water makes it difficult to cook legumes. Soda is added to the pot to facilitate cooking, which causes loss of vitamins. Therefore it should not be used. Legumes shells can cause gas and bloating. If the shells are removed, gas formation is also prevented.
19. How should meat be cooked?


Meats should be cooked by light or medium temperature and for a long time no matter which method they prepare. After boiling 1-2 carcasses in high heat with the mouth closed, the heat should be reduced and the foams formed on the boiling should be taken. Mouths should not be opened frequently (1-2 times) when cooking meats as in the cooking stage of any kind of food.

Too high temperature solidifies meat proteins, causing water loss and reduced flavor. Protein and vitamin B1 decrease. If the meat is cooked in a pressure cooker or oven with hot water, this nutrient can be best utilized.
20. Caffeine adversely affects vitamin absorption


When foods are consumed with tea or coffee, caffeine and tannins adversely affect the absorption of vitamins and cause loss of some minerals in the body. Eat foods that make blood with vitamin C , foods with calcium and consumption with tea reduce iron absorption.

Especially tea should be drunk 2 hours after meals. Do not use unknown brands. In addition to blood-producing foods, we should use foods that contain vitamin C. Vitamin C provides the absorption of iron in the food. Besides the food, freshly squeezed fruit juices containing vitamin C and lemon salad prepared with tomato and pepper can be preferred.

21. It is acceptable to eat fruit / vegetables with peel


Fruits and vegetables become healthier and vitamins when consumed with their skins and raw. Because vitamin values ​​are just below the shell. And when we have to peel them (potatoes, celery, apples, etc.), we have to peel them very thinly.
22. To reduce vitamin C in fruits de


Vitamin C value decreases if the fruits are waited after being cut or squeezed. We need to consume them now. If the juices are kept in the refrigerator, the vitamin value decreases.

Tarhana; yogurt and flour is made by mixing the mixture, the nutritional value is high. Boiled chickpeas, lentils and carrots add to the cooking value.
24. Bread selection and cutting is very important


If the bread is thinly sliced ​​and fried, its nutritional value decreases. Instead of white bread, we should prefer whole wheat, rye and bran bread. However, people who have anemia should not use too much bran bread and because it contains fiber in the bran, it can cause diarrhea in people with intestinal problems. It is best to consume all breads alternately.

25. When making dessert, sugar should be placed first


Eggs, milk, yoghurt, cheese and tahini desserts have high nutritional value. These desserts; it is more beneficial than just flour, oil and sugar. The use of molasses instead of sugar increases nutritional value. When making milk dessert, sugar should be placed first. The protein value of the milk cooked with sugar decreases.
26. Loss of Vitamin A when drying in the sun


Vegetable, fruit and tarhana dried in the sun can cause loss of vitamin A. Therefore, drying should be done in the shade. A, C, B2, B6 and folic acid values ​​decrease if milk and yogurt are kept in a light place.
27. Danger in canning: Botulism poisoning


When sufficient boiling is not performed in home-made canned food, ost clostridium botulinum ”bacteria grow. This bacterium is very dangerous and causes botulism poisoning which can lead to death. If the lids of the canned food we make at home or from outside have been bombed inward or outward, albeit less, these canned food is extremely harmful to health.
28. Fruits / vegetables should be washed by rubbing


Fruits and vegetables are very good on the remnants of the drug and we should wash by rubbing. Experts even say that only 25% of the residues disappear with this wash. They recommend having a brush that you can use to wash only fruits and vegetables. The scrubbing method does not completely eliminate the remnants of the drug, but leaves less residue.
29. How should pasta be cooked?


Pasta should be cooked with water and should not be kept under cold water after cooking.
30. Time to put lemon / salt / vinegar in salads is important


Lemon or vinegar is added to salads and vitamin A and C values ​​decrease when kept. Salad; oil, salt, lemon or vinegar should be added when brought to the table. Even if possible, the use of vinegar made at home will be much healthier.

Vegetables to be consumed raw; Parasitic eggs adhered to the vegetables to be separated and to kill invisible insects, after washing for 15 minutes in salt or vinegar should be washed again. Vegetables should not be cut or tear off. Fruit and vegetable washing concentrate, which provides disinfection of vegetables and fruits, is sold in the markets.

Vegetables should be cooked in less water and in a short time. Rooted ones after the root is removed; others are washed, chopped and used without waiting. Chopped fruits and vegetables are thrown into boiling water while cooking. When we want to roast the food, we must add hot water after roasting the vegetables. Hot water should be added when it is necessary to add water when you see that all kinds of food are running low.
34. am Uncle Grocery Wrapping Bread in Newspaper ”


It is wrong to store food such as parsley, dill, leek and spinach in the refrigerator and to buy bread wrapped in newspaper from the grocery store.

It is also important to note that cooked and uncooked meats should not come into contact with each other because raw meats produce bacteria quickly, which can be transmitted to other foods.

Which containers are better to use in the refrigerator?

Food should be kept in glass containers as much as possible. Plastic materials such as ice cream or yogurt cups are very harmful for health. Also ice cream, yogurt and so on. the expiration dates printed on the foods are also the expiration dates of the container.
It is also very important that the milk we frequently consume is stored in the right conditions. There is a high amount of vitamin B2 in milk, which disappears when sunlight receives.

Fruits and vegetables are the most wasted foods. He must either eat it right away or know how to keep it safe.

According to the figures of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, more than 200 million tons of food is disposed of each year in developed countries. The most wasted is fruit and vegetables. Think bananas between the eyes on the counter, darkened bananas, carrots hidden in the refrigerator. It is possible to evaluate some of them at meals, but sometimes they cannot be saved. The best way to keep them alive is to know how to keep them right.

The best benefit of this drawer, even if none, is that it keeps the contents moist. If there is high humidity in the drawer, it is ideal for fast-topping foods such as asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, lemon, green beans, green herbs, peppers and strawberries. Those who love less moisture, apples, apricots, figs, kiwi, melon, peach, banana, such as fast food.

Do not leave fruits that produce a high proportion of ethylene gas (such as apples, tomatoes, bananas) next to other vegetables. They cause others to mature and deteriorate more quickly. In short, do not hide fast-decaying and fast-pitting side-by-side.

Apples, tomatoes, pears, avocados, melons, peaches, plums, apricots, such as fruits, ripen on the kitchen counter, are flavored. Fruits such as peppers, grapes, oranges, lemons and strawberries should be kept in the refrigerator. Especially if the banana has a fruit that matures fast, besides citrus, it darkens even faster.

How to store the most consumed fruits and vegetables?

Store the apples in the fruit and vegetable drawer of the refrigerator, laying them on a slightly damp paper towel. Remember, even if one of them is a little rotten, ethylene gas produced by the others will disrupt immediately. Take it from the herd and eat it in no time!

Thick leafy greens like moisture but don't like to stay wet, they turn yellow immediately. Make sure to wash the greens that you use for making salad such as lettuce, curly, arugula and then dry thoroughly. Wrap in a dry towel (yes, normal face towel) and store in the refrigerator.

Wash delicate leafy herbs such as mint, coriander, basil just before use. To store in a refrigerator, place it in a glass with little water like a flower.

If you have onions and potatoes in the cellar, keep it outside in the cellar, if not in the sun. But beware, they do not stand side by side, the onion makes the potatoes spoil.

Cut tops while storing root vegetables. In this way, they do not lose moisture, they can retain their texture and flavor.

We also like to display the yellow lemons in a delicious bowl on the kitchen counter. But the lemon, which lasts just one week, can last four weeks in the refrigerator.

I don't like cold cucumbers and eggplants. So if you're going to consume it in a few days, you can keep both outside.

The right place for mushrooms is in the fruit and vegetable drawer of the refrigerator on a paper bag. The paper provides air circulation, and the drawer keeps the air inside moist.

Instead of keeping the tomatoes in the refrigerator, let them ripen at room temperature on the counter. Place it in a basket with air underneath and align it side by side with the handle side down. Storing in the cold prevents ripening, lacking in flavor and causing the meat to become sand and sand.

An astonishing way to store carrots is to wrap them in paper towels and remove them from the refrigerator. But if you have room, you can put it in a bowl full of water and keep it. If the carrot is on its stem and greens, cut it and keep its greens separate.
