[Reporter Chen Jiayi/Taipei Report] During the Chinese New Year, the whole family gathers around the stove to eat a lot of fish and meat, but if they don't finish eating, the table may be full of delicacies and delicacies, which may turn into kitchen waste.

In order to prevent the Chinese New Year's table from becoming a production line for leftover food, the Housewives Alliance Environmental Protection Foundation shared that planned purchases, sub-packaging and preservation of food, food-wise cooking methods, etc., the New Year's Eve dishes do not need to be "spring", but can also be eaten every year. more than enough.

The New Year's meal is full of good ingredients, sometimes just to pursue the ritual sense of the festival, but if you don't finish eating, it will not only waste food, but also waste your wallet.

Wu Bishuang, executive director of the Housewives Alliance Environmental Protection Foundation, said that when people buy Chinese New Year vegetables, they always worry that they will not have enough food for the New Year.

She suggested that before people go to the market, they can first estimate the number of people who will eat at home during the Chinese New Year, how many meals will be eaten at home, and control the portion to the amount that can be eaten within three days. "Buy as much as you eat, and buy just the right amount at the beginning. It's better than throwing it away at the end."

Foodstuffs are packaged before storing in the refrigerator

Wu Bishuang suggested that after the ingredients are bought home, don’t rush to put them in the refrigerator. You can divide the ingredients according to the amount of each cooking, and then put them in the refrigerator to keep fresh. It is also more convenient.

In the same way, if you stew a large amount of stewed meat, soup and other foods at one time, you can divide them first, and then take them out of the refrigerator when you want to enjoy them, so as to avoid food spoilage due to too many portions that cannot be eaten at one time and repeated heating.

Change the cooking method to transform the leftovers gorgeously

In addition, Wu Bishuang also shared the "Food Rejuvenation Method", by changing the cooking method, helping the leftovers to transform into a gorgeous one.

For example, she gave an example to eat the white chopped chicken recipe after the next meal, and the meat quality will usually become dull. At this time, you can shred the white chopped chicken by hand, make cold green papaya, and use the enzyme of green papaya to soften the meat; or cook it Curry chicken, three cup chicken, use seasoning to add points to chicken dishes.

However, she also reminded that leftovers must be fully heated before eating, and it is best not to reheat a dish more than twice to avoid carcinogens such as nitrates from repeated cooking.

If food waste still occurs after careful planning, the principle of food waste classification must be followed.

Wu Bishuang pointed out that people should drain the water when dumping food waste, and avoid mixing food waste with general garbage, so as to prevent the oil and salt in the food waste from entering the incinerator and shorten the service life of the incinerator.

Wu Bishuang said that over-purchasing New Year’s dishes not only hurts the wallet, but also tends to waste food. We should adhere to the principle of “how much to eat, how much to buy, and how much to cook”, and aim to solve the leftover food with zero kitchen waste. In fact, there is no need to “have spring” for New Year’s Eve dishes. You can also have more than enough every year and have a good year.
