Can sea cucumbers be eaten with potatoes?

Sea cucumbers are very popular, and there are many ways to eat them, but you need to avoid food incompatibility. For example, you need to know some food taboos and precautions. Elements such as hawthorn, apple, vinegar, glycyrrhizic acid, etc. cannot be eaten with sea cucumbers. Common grapes and persimmons also cannot be eaten with seafood. However, there is no problem eating sea cucumbers with potatoes and tomatoes.

Sea cucumber, potato and tomato can be eaten together.

Foods that should not be eaten with sea cucumbers :

1. Hawthorn .

Hawthorn is sour and sweet, slightly warm. It can be used for symptoms such as meat stagnation, gastric bloating, diarrhea and abdominal pain, blood stasis and amenorrhea, postpartum blood stasis, stabbing pain in the heart and abdomen, hernia pain, and hyperlipidemia. However, it is worth reminding everyone that hawthorn cannot be eaten together with sea cucumbers, because the acidic substances in hawthorn will destroy the collagen contained in sea cucumbers, and eating them together will cause abdominal pain and vomiting.

2. Green fruit.

Green fruit, also known as "olive", is named because the fruit can be eaten fresh when it is still green. It is mild in nature and tastes sweet, astringent and sour. Clears away heat, relieves sore throat, promotes salivation and detoxifies. Used for sore throat, cough, thirst, fish and crab poisoning, etc. Although green fruit is so beneficial, it cannot be eaten with sea cucumbers. Because sea cucumbers are rich in nutrients such as protein and calcium, eating the two together will cause the protein to coagulate, making it difficult to digest and absorb, and will also cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.

3. Glycyrrhizic acid.

Glycyrrhizic acid is the main active ingredient in licorice and is also a good food additive and spice base. Condiments such as soy sauce and bean paste all contain glycyrrhizic acid. When cooking seafood, adding these seasonings can have a good seasoning effect, but sea cucumbers are a different story. Because glycyrrhizic acid will change the spatial structure of sea cucumber collagen and cause the protein molecules to coagulate and contract to varying degrees. It not only affects the deliciousness of sea cucumbers, but also affects the absorption of collagen. Girls who love beauty must avoid this.

4. Edible vinegar.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that sea cucumbers can nourish the kidneys and blood, and have very high nutritional and therapeutic value. However, if vinegar is added when cooking sea cucumbers, the nutritional value will be greatly reduced. Eating them together will have the same effect as eating glycyrrhizic acid, because acidic foods will cause collagen to coagulate and tighten, which is not conducive to the absorption of nutrients.

5. Grapes.

Grapes have high nutritional value. The large amount of fruit acid in grapes helps digestion. Eating more grapes can strengthen the spleen and stomach. Sea cucumbers have strong repair and regeneration capabilities, and repairing the intestines and stomach that have been damaged for many years is a manifestation of their function. However, it must be noted that sea cucumbers cannot be eaten together with grapes, otherwise it will have the opposite effect. Not only will it fail to repair the stomach and intestines, but it will have a damaging effect.

6. Persimmon

As we all know, persimmons cannot be eaten with crabs. Eating them together will lead to the production of hard fruit. Similarly, sea cucumbers, as a seafood, cannot be eaten with persimmons. The tannic acid contained in persimmons will form precipitation together with the protein and calcium salt of sea cucumbers. This precipitate will irritate our gastrointestinal organs and easily cause disease. Such as nausea, constipation and other symptoms.
