Starfruit oranges smoothie


This starfruit juice has been a childhood obsession of mine. The first variety of fruit that my father began to plant was starfruit. Another name for starfruit is carambola. The fruit of the leafy starfruit trees was abundant during the fruiting season. Each starfruit is covered in a paper bag to prevent bug bites, but the powerful aroma still permeates the fruit despite the bag. When the paper bag was removed, the yellow and green starfruits that hung thickly from the branches were visible. The star fruit is highly juicy and tasty.

My mum used to tell me that starfruit helps lower cholesterol. At that young age, I was not very great at being health mindful. She will always make starfruit juice for me during the fruiting season as I felt it was a fantastic beverage. She was extracting juice from the starfruit using a vintage juice extractor with the NATIONAL brand but discards the indigestible fiber.

A starfruit beverage is incredibly acidic and sweet. A sweet and sour exotic fruit with incredible health advantages is also one of the best tropical fruits. Most of you likely have not drank this juice before. But trust me, this is a wonderful, soothing beverage that leaves your mouth tasting astonishing.

Sucrose, fructose, and glucose are abundant in starfruit. Out of all fruits, sugar is the most abundant substance. Consuming starfruit may aid in digestion. Starfruit's potent antioxidant capabilities are helpful in reducing inflammation, cholesterol levels, and the risks of fatty liver. The starfruit is good for making juice since it has high water content. The juice will even be nutritious and delicious when combined with other fruits. So, I am going to share with you how to make a starfruit and orange smoothie today.

Why do I refer to it as a smoothie rather than a juice?

I am blending the fruit in a powerful blender. I am consuming the complete fruit mixture, including the fibre, in my drink. However, if you use a juicer, it will filter out most of the fibre from the fruits you are juicing, leaving you with the liquid juice and the fibrous pulp, which is then thrown away.

Can I have this smoothie for breakfast?

Starfruit and oranges can be eaten together because there will not be any negative effects or nutritional loss when they are consumed together. Additionally, starfruit and oranges are nutrient-dense and can help the body get additional nutrients.

HOWEVER, starfruit is a rich source of acidic compounds, and oranges have a high concentration of organic acids. As a result, it is not advisable to consume this starfruit orange smoothie before a meal.

 

INGREDIENTS (for 2 big glasses)

4 pcs starfruits

5 oranges

 

 

METHOD

1. Clean the starfruit, remove the hard corners, and cut it into small pieces; after peeling the orange, cut it into small pieces.

2. In a blender, put the two together in a blender to puree until smooth.  

3. Pour into two big glasses and serve.

 

This smoothie with starfruit and oranges is wholesome, tasty, and refreshing. I am hoping you will try it.

Pumpkin Sago Dessert（南瓜西米露）

Pumpkin is a very good food material, suitable for men, women and children. Although it tastes very sweet, it does not contain high sugar content. It can even be eaten by diabetics. Pumpkin sago is a dessert that many people like because it does not harm the body. So, how to make pumpkin sago? This creamy, smooth pumpkin sweet soup is one of my favorites.   So aromatic with coconut milk.   Since the soup tends to thicken, I prefer it to serve hot rather than cold. I prefer to cook coconut milk in the soup with a little salt. Coconut milk is naturally sweet and rich. Salt helps to balance these flavors, making the soup more palatable and enjoyable. Others may prefer to drizzle some coconut milk on top before serving. The main ingredients of pumpkin and sago are pumpkin and sago. The general method of cooking sago is to boil water in a pot, pour in sago and cook on low heat for about 10-15 minutes. Turn off the heat when only a little white spot is left in the middle of the ...

Hakka Braised Pork Belly with Black Fungus

There was once I went to a bookstore and found this "The Hakka Cookbook" by accident. This book's subtitle is "Chinese Soul Food Around the World". According to the text, Hakka food exhibits the Hakka people's economical, not luxurious, and generous hospitality. Hakka cuisine has many health benefits because the Hakka people are dedicated to their pursuit of methods of preserving health and are skilled in utilizing the scientific principles concealed in nature. Hakka food has currently established itself as a representation of Cantonese cuisine. The two primary specialties are Hakka-stuffed tofu and salt-baked chicken. This meal is available at restaurants and is highly well-liked. Braised Pork Belly with Black Fungus is one of the dishes from this book that I have come across. Although the black fungus does not have a pleasing appearance, it is incredibly nutrient-rich. A daily intake of 5 to 10 grams of black fungus can support cardiovascular heal...

Ants Climbing A Tree (蚂蚁上树）

This dish is really interesting– Ants Climbing Trees! The name sounds like a small animal, but it is actually made with vermicelli or glass noodles and minces meat. This dish may seem simple, but it is actually rich in content. It is mainly made of glass noodles paired with fresh minced meat, and carefully seasoned with ginger, garlic, shallots, spicy bean paste, soy sauce, sugar and other condiments. Sometimes I cook it and serve it alone as breakfast, lunch, and even dinner. Sometimes I serve it with white rice. Either way, it is a very satisfying dish on my dinner table. The glass noodles were smooth, the minced meat was fragrant, and it tasted a little spicy due to the spicy bean paste.   It was delicious. The reason why this dish name as “ants climbing trees” is because the fried minced meat looks like little ants climbing on the “branch” of glass noodles. When preparing Ants Climbing a Tree, keep in mind that the glass noodles will absorb the sauce quickly.   Incre...
