In the past, stewed pork knuckles used soy beans. Today, I want to use black beans to stew pork knuckles to see if the taste is different. After the stew, the taste is really different. Pork knuckles stewed with black beans are more fragrant than stewed with soybeans. Both soybeans and black beans have good nutrition.

According to research, the protein content of black beans is as high as 36%-40%, which is equivalent to 2 times that of meat, 3 times that of eggs, and 12 times that of milk; black beans contain 18 kinds of amino acids, especially 8 kinds of amino acids that are necessary for the human body; Containing 19 kinds of oleic acid, its unsaturated fatty acid content reaches 80%, and the absorption rate is as high as 95%. In addition to meeting the body's need for fat, it also has the effect of lowering blood cholesterol.

Black beans basically contain no cholesterol, only plant sterols, and plant sterols are not absorbed and used by the body, and have the effect of inhibiting the body's absorption of cholesterol and lowering the content of cholesterol in the blood. Therefore, regular consumption of black beans can soften blood vessels, moisturize the skin, and delay aging. It is especially beneficial to patients with high blood pressure and heart disease.

In addition to stewing meat, black beans can also be used to cook soup, grind black soybean milk, etc. The beans are very nutritious but should also be eaten in moderation; if excessive consumption of beans or regular consumption, it will increase the purine content in the human body In the human body, purine will become uric acid after oxidation, and high uric acid in the human body will cause gout. So it must be eaten in moderation. "
