Ama-Quinces, ama-apula, namapheya anesikhathi sawo ngoSepthemba. Ithuba elihle lokugcwalisa ukunikezwa kwakho kwasebusika kwe-fruity quince jelly noma ujabulele i-apula ne-pear chutney enoshizi omnandi.
Isithelo esidume kakhulu: i-apula
“Ihhabhula ngosuku ligcina udokotela kude” isisho, ihhabhula ngosuku ligcina udokotela engekho. I-apula ingenye yezinhlobo ezidume kakhulu zesithelo eJalimane. Ngamunye wethu udla cishe ama-apula angama-250 ngonyaka. Lokhu akusho kuphela ama-apula amasha, kodwa nama-apula kuphaya we-apula, i-apple strudel, ku-appleauce, noma ama-apula chips. Kodwa akuwona wonke ama-apula afanayo. Cishe izinhlobo ezingama-apula eziyi-1000 ezimelelwe ezweni lakithi. Izinhlobo ze-Gala, Jonagold, Braeburn, ne-Elstar ziphakathi kwezinhlobo ezaziwa kakhulu.
I-apula libizwa nge-colloquially ngokuthi “isixubho semvelo”. Kunenqwaba ye-pectin ebalulekile egobolondweni layo futhi inothile ngama-asidi esithelo abalulekile. Ama-apula anambitheka nsuku zonke nangaso sonke isikhathi: njengokudla okulula ngesikhathi sekhefu, ngemva komdlalo - noma ukupheka, ukugazinga, nokubhaka.
Amnandi futhi anamanzi: amapheya
Ipheya lingelomndeni wezithelo zikapome. Ngakho-ke, njengesithelo se-pome, i-pear inamavithamini namaminerali amaningi abalulekile, njengovithamini C noma i-calcium. Amapheya ngokuvamile aqukethe i-fructose ethe xaxa kodwa i-asidi encane kune-apula, isibonelo. Ngakho-ke zibhekwa njengento elula esiswini futhi kulula ukugaya kunezinye izinhlobo zezithelo. Njenge-apula, amavithamini amaningi angaphansi kwesikhumba sepheya, ngakho-ke kungcono ukudla isithelo esigeziwe futhi singahlutshiwe.
Kunezinhlobo ezingenakubalwa zamapheya. Abathandi beziphuzo ezinobufakazi obuphezulu cishe bajwayelene kakhulu nezinhlobonhlobo ze-Williams Christ, lapho kwenziwa khona nomkhiqizo wezithelo zegama elifanayo. Isithelo sale Obstler ngokuvamile sivela emasimini asedlelweni izithelo zawo ezingafaneleki njengesithelo setafula. Ngaphandle kwamapheya etafula ajwayelekile, kukhona namapheya okupheka. Lezi azilungele ukusetshenziswa okuluhlaza, kufanele ziphekwe kuqala, njengoba igama libonisa. Amapheya aphekiwe alungele i-compote noma njengesithako esimnandi ezitsheni ezinomsoco.
Isithelo esithambile: i-quince
Ekuboneni kokuqala, abaningi badidanisa i-quince ne-apula noma i-pear. Kodwa ochwepheshe be-quince bayaqaphela ngokushesha ukuthi isithelo esiphundu siyi-quince. Umehluko wenziwa phakathi kwe-apula quince ethize kanye ne-quince yamapheya athambile. Ngokungafani nezihlobo zawo eziseduze, ama-apula namapheya, iquince kufanele ihlanzwe inamafutha futhi iphekwe ngaphambi kokuba idliwe. Nokho, ngemva kwalokho, ingathuthukisa iphunga layo elimnandi ngokukhululekile futhi ilungele ukwenza ujamu, ojeli, namajusi. Kuhle futhi ezitsheni ezihlukahlukene ezinoshukela nezimnandi.
I-quince iyikhambi elizanyiwe futhi elihloliwe lezinkinga zokugaya nokuvuvukala kwazo zonke izinhlobo kusukela ezikhathini zasendulo. Amaminerali amaningi kanye nezakhi zokulandelela kuqinisekisa ukuthuthwa okuhle kwe-oksijini futhi kukhuthaze i-cell metabolism.
Ngakho-ke ngena ekhishini, lungisa, hamba! I-quince isesikhathini kuze kube uNovemba futhi inephunga elimnandi kakhulu lapho ibona isithwathwa sokuqala. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kuba lula ke ukucubungula.
