Spinach and tofu can’t be eaten together. After decades of publicity, this sentence has become a well-known and popular iron rule.

However, according to recent research results, it can be determined that spinach and tofu are not only a good match, but also a perfect match for calcium and bone.
It used to be thought that spinach should not be eaten with tofu for one reason: Spinach contains a large amount of oxalic acid, which will combine with calcium to form an insoluble precipitate.
However, this statement does not see another aspect of the problem-spinach also contains a variety of factors that promote calcium utilization and reduce calcium excretion, including rich potassium and magnesium, as well as vitamin K.
In Chinese medicine, there is a saying that "green enters the liver meridian", green food can benefit the circulation and metabolism of liver qi, but also relieve fatigue, relieve liver depression, eating more dark or green food can play a role in nourishing the liver and protecting the liver. In winter, you may wish to eat more of these green fruits and vegetables, such as spinach. Spinach contains a lot of beta carotene and iron, and is also an excellent source of vitamin B6, folic acid, iron and potassium. It is rich in vitamin A and carotene, which can make your complexion ruddy and is praised as a good product for beauty.
Tofu is rich in nutrients, contains iron, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and other trace elements necessary for the human body. It also contains sugar, vegetable oil and rich high-quality protein. It is known as "plant meat". The digestion and absorption rate of tofu is more than 95%. Two small pieces of tofu can meet a person's daily calcium requirement. Tofu is a food for replenishing heat and clearing away heat. If eaten regularly, it can nourish the middle and nourish qi, clear away heat and moisturize dryness, promote body fluids and quench thirst, and cleanse the intestines and stomach. It is more suitable for people who have heat constitution, bad breath, thirst, unclear stomach, and those who are nursing after fever.
Although tofu is rich in nutrients, it lacks dietary fiber. Eating tofu alone may cause constipation. Putting the greens together when eating tofu can just make up for this shortcoming of tofu.
Tofu spinach is also difficult to form into a ball after crushing, so you need to add pork puree, not only to increase the flavor and nutrition, but also to boil the meatballs into balls easily.
This dish is light, delicious and delicious, and is often eaten in winter. "
