Since ancient times, porridge has been one of the foundations of Russian cuisine. No wonder there are so many proverbs and sayings about this dish in folklore: "Cabbage soup and porridge are our food", "Porridge is our mother", "Good porridge, but small cup." Until recently, semolina was considered a delicacy product and was served only on the table in wealthy houses. Now it is available to everyone, but to cook it correctly, without the hated lumps, is a whole art.

About the product and its benefits

Semolina is produced from wheat and has all the properties of refined grain. There are few vitamins, macro- and microelements in it, but a high content of starch and vegetable protein. This makes it a valuable product for getting energy quickly.

The use of semolina

1. It is used in the postoperative period to restore strength.
2. Due to the small amount of dietary fiber, it is quickly digested, which allows it to be recommended for the nutrition of the elderly.
3. The only cereal that is absorbed in the lower intestine without irritating the stomach. Recommended for diseases of the digestive system, cleanses the intestines.

The calorie content of semolina is quite high - 320 kcal per 100 g of cereal, which allows it to be used when depleted.

Cereals for baby food are used with caution due to the content of gluten, phytin and gliodin. Gluten (gluten) can provoke allergic reactions, phytin is an antioxidant, but interferes with the absorption of calcium, gliodin slows down the absorption of nutrients by the baby's intestines.

Choice of cereals

Before boiling porridge, choose the right cereal for it. On sale there is semolina from different varieties of wheat with the appropriate marking:

• hard (T);
• soft (M);
• mixed (MT).

Cereals labeled T and MT are considered more useful - they have a lower glycemic index - an indicator of an increase in blood sugar after eating a product. Such cereals are more expensive and are not sold in every store. Porridge made from M-cereals turns out to be more viscous, with a pronounced taste, it is cooked faster, but there is less benefit in it.

Groats with TM marking are made from durum and soft wheat

Buy semolina in factory-made transparent packaging. It is sealed, does not allow excess moisture to penetrate into the bag. In addition, you can visually evaluate the product: it must be free-flowing, without lumps, litter and bugs.

The color of the cereal also matters. The correct color is cream or yellowish. Too white groats or a grayish tint is a sign of poor-quality goods. Groats marked M are usually mealy, opaque, T is clean with translucent calibrated grains, TM combines the features of M and T.

Do not chase after cheapness, perhaps a low-quality product is hidden behind a low price. Look for GOST on the packaging, this guarantees that the product is produced in large-scale production in accordance with the standards.

Food Ratios and Secrets of Lump-Free Semolina

Now about the proportions. The consistency of the finished semolina depends on the ratio of cereal and liquid. The classic proportions and cooking times are shown in the table. They may vary slightly depending on the quality of the cereal and the preparation method.
