Ají Criollo

Para la gente que le gusta un poco más picante

Encurtido son un tipo de alimentos que han sido sumergidos (marinados) en una solución de sal, y que fermentan por sí solos o con la ayuda de un microorganismo inocuo en el cual baja el pH y aumenta la acidez del mismo con el objetivo de poder extender su conservación. Otro tipo de encurtidos se fabrican directamente por inmersión en vinagre que posee un pH menor de 4,6 y es suficiente para matar la mayor parte de los microorganismos. El encurtido permite conservar los alimentos durante meses. Se suele añadir a la marinada hierbas y sustancias antimicrobianas, tales como la mostaza, el ajo, la canela o los clavos de olor. Se denomina también 'encurtido' así al proceso que consiste en someter a la acción de vinagre, de origen vínico, alimentos vegetales.

Creole Hot Pepper

For people who like it a little more spicy

Pickles are a type of food that has been submerged (marinated) in a salt solution, and that ferments by itself or with the help of an innocuous microorganism in which it lowers the pH and increases its acidity with the aim of being able to extend its storage. Other types of pickles are made directly by immersion in vinegar, which has a pH of less than 4.6 and is sufficient to kill most microorganisms. Pickling allows food to be preserved for months. Herbs and antimicrobial substances, such as mustard, garlic, cinnamon or cloves, are often added to the marinade. It is also called 'pickled' thus the process that consists of subjecting vegetable foods to the action of vinegar, of wine origin. It is also called 'pickled' thus the process that consists of subjecting vegetable foods to the action of vinegar, of wine origin. Are pickles fattening? The answer is simple: NO. What's more, THIS FOOD CAN BE A GOOD ALLY TO KEEP YOUR WEIGHT AT LOW. But what is it due to? The reason is found in the properties contained in all those foods that are preserved in an acid solution, as is the case with pickled gherkins and spring onions. Combining vegetables with acetic acid not only helps to improve digestion, but also stimulates and speeds up metabolism, which translates into burning more calories, known as the Krebs cycle. In this sense, we must take into account that the composition of the preserves in vinegar varies due to the formation process. This means that both acidic and salty conditions make harmful bacteria disappear and only those that have positive metabolic effects such as fat dissolution or greater and more effective calorie burning remain. On the other hand, the acetic acid that vinegar contains actively helps the process of metabolizing carbohydrates and fats, turning into adenosine triphosphate through which the accumulation of fat is avoided, since it injects more energy into the cells and that it results in the acceleration of metabolism or the stimulation of other organs such as the liver and pancreas. For all these reasons, we can say that pickles in vinegar are not fattening, but rather help to lose weight.
