Yesterday I got a basket of raspberries and, suddenly my daughter came with an idea: a good portion of raspberry icecream tastes even better if followed by a swimming session. Said and done.
Here are few facts about raspberries :
- are an important commercial fruit crop, widely grown in all temperate regions of the world. Raspberries are grown for the fresh fruit market and for commercial processing. Traditionally, raspberries were a mid-summer crop, but with new technology, cultivars, and transportation, they can now be obtained year-round.
Raspberry leaves can be used fresh or dried in herbal and medicinal teas. They have an astringent flavour, and in herbal medicine are reputed to be effective in regulating menses. The leaf has been used in folk remedies, due to its rich content in vitamins, minerals, and tannins.
Traditional lore suggests that pregnant women use raspberry leaf tea, especially as an aid in delivery. However, scientific research has found no evidence to support this claim. Every Woman's Herbal claims that raspberry leaf tea will enrich the mother's milk, especially during periods when the baby is going through a growth spurt.
It is also known as the fruit of eternal youth .
Raspberry nutrients and health benefits:
And, as a paradox, one of the few countries that still have plenty enough raspberries, so that it can be collected in considerable quantities from the spontaneous flora, is Romania, yet in recent rankings of world producers of raspberries, Romania doesn't exist.
However, although Romania is not included in statistics, it is a leading manufacturer of a legitimate reason: quality.
Ieri am primit un cos de zmeura si, brusc, fiemea a venit cu o idee: inghetata si o buna sedinta de inot. Zis si facut.
Dar, iata citeva informatii despre zmeura:
-este o cultura importanta de fructe comerciale, larg raspindita in toate regiunile temperate ale lumii. Cultivata atit pentru pentru piata de fructe proaspete cit si pentru prelucrare comerciale, in mod traditional are o cultura la mijlocul verii, dar cu noua tehnologie, poate fi obtinuta pe tot parcursul anului.

In loc de concluzie:
Ca un paradox, printre putinele tari care mai au zmeura suficient de abundenta, asa incat sa poata fi recoltata in cantitati considerabile din flora spontana, este Romania, cu toate astea, in clasamentele recente ale producatorilor mondiali de zmeura, tara noastra nici nu exista.
Totusi, desi Romania nu intra in statistici, ea este un producator important dintr-un motiv legitim: calitatea.

And, as a paradox, one of the few countries that still have plenty enough raspberries, so that it can be collected in considerable quantities from the spontaneous flora, is Romania, yet in recent rankings of world producers of raspberries, Romania doesn't exist.
However, although Romania is not included in statistics, it is a leading manufacturer of a legitimate reason: quality.
In the food processor bowl put: a bowl of fresh raspberries, 1 egg white and about 1 cup of sugar. Mix until everything looks like foam and then divide the mixture into plastic cups. Let'em into the freezer. In few hours you will have the perfect raspberry ice cream. Low calories, so cold in the summer heat and a whole mad berries flavor the will satisfy your sweet desires too.
After a good cup of icecream, what else than a good swimming game would have gone ?
INGHETATA DE ZMEURA
Ieri am primit un cos de zmeura si, brusc, fiemea a venit cu o idee: inghetata si o buna sedinta de inot. Zis si facut.
Dar, iata citeva informatii despre zmeura:
-este o cultura importanta de fructe comerciale, larg raspindita in toate regiunile temperate ale lumii. Cultivata atit pentru pentru piata de fructe proaspete cit si pentru prelucrare comerciale, in mod traditional are o cultura la mijlocul verii, dar cu noua tehnologie, poate fi obtinuta pe tot parcursul anului.

Totusi, desi Romania nu intra in statistici, ea este un producator important dintr-un motiv legitim: calitatea.
In cuva robotului de bucatarie puneti: un bol de zmeura proaspata, 1 albus de ou si cam 1 pahar de zahar. Mixati totul pina are aspect de spuma apoi puneti compozitia in pahare de plastic si dati la congelator. In citeva ore veti avea inghetata perfecta de zmeura. Putine calorii, rece in arsita verii si acel dulce nebun cu aroma de fructe care sa va satisfaca dorintele.
Dupa o cupa buna de inghetata, ce altceva decit o partida buna de inot ar fi mers ?
Enjoy !
