Hi there 馃尲
Hope you're doing great.
Well, the truth is that lately, I have been experimenting a lot in the kitchen, mainly to improve my eating habits and therefore my health.
Pues la verdad es que 煤ltimamente estoy experimentando mucho en la cocina, sobre todo para mejorar mis h谩bitos alimenticios y por tanto mi salud.
One of the last things I prepared was a delicious spinach smoothie that, to be honest, felt good. It was very refreshing and I don't know if it's just my ideas but I also felt that it helped me alleviate a general malaise that had been with me for days. I even felt energized.
Una de las 煤ltimas cosas que prepar茅 fue un delicioso batido de espinacas que, la verdad, me sent贸 muy bien. Era muy refrescante y no s茅 si son s贸lo mis ideas pero tambi茅n sent铆 que me ayud贸 a aliviar un malestar general que me acompa帽aba desde hac铆a d铆as. Incluso me sent铆 con energ铆a.
This smoothie is super easy to make, you just need a small pineapple cut into chunks, fresh spinach, and one or two bananas, depending on how sweet you want it to be.
The spinach must be very clean and we have the option of adding it raw or cooked. If we are going to decide on the 2nd option we must be careful not to overcook them as they tend to reduce a lot or we will have to add a large amount of spinach.
Este batido es s煤per f谩cil de hacer, s贸lo necesitas una pi帽a peque帽a cortada en trozos, espinacas frescas y uno o dos pl谩tanos, dependiendo de lo dulce que quieras que sea.
Las espinacas deben estar muy limpias y tenemos la opci贸n de a帽adirlas crudas o cocidas. Si nos vamos a decantar por la 2陋 opci贸n debemos tener cuidado de no cocinarlas en exceso ya que suelen reducirse mucho o tendremos que a帽adir una gran cantidad de espinacas.
I decided to make it with raw spinach and although the flavor was exquisite, I must admit that the texture was not my favorite. The problem with spinach is that if it is raw it gives an earthy sensation. I don't know if I can explain it well, but it would be a matter of trying it. I also decided not to strain it and eat it as it came out of the blender.
Decid铆 hacerla con espinacas crudas y aunque el sabor era exquisito, debo reconocer que la textura no era mi favorita. El problema de las espinacas es que si est谩n crudas dan una sensaci贸n terrosa. No s茅 si puedo explicarlo bien, pero ser铆a cuesti贸n de probarlo. Tambi茅n decid铆 no colarla y comerla tal y como sal铆a de la batidora.
I liked it but I think next time I will cook the spinach to see if it changes the texture a bit. I don't like to cook it too much because I feel it loses all the nutrients but I will do it very quickly to avoid this.
Me ha gustado pero creo que la pr贸xima vez cocer茅 las espinacas para ver si cambia un poco la textura. No me gusta cocinarla mucho porque siento que pierde todos los nutrientes pero lo har茅 muy r谩pido para evitarlo.
Thanks a million for stopping by.
Lots of love,
W.
