Many people understand that shashlik is not considered a healthy food because it is fried.
But even this dish can be made as safe for health as possible during the cooking process.
It is no secret that fried meat contains many carcinogens, and the most dangerous component is benzapriene, which is formed when shashlik fat comes into contact with coals.
After this, the substance, along with the smoke, settles on the meat.
How to reduce the harm from shashlik
It turns out that it is the fried crust that contains the largest amount of carcinogens.
But if you make a marinade based on wine, beer or tea, it will help reduce the amount of carcinogens in the meat.
It is better to choose chicken or beef shashlik, as pork and lamb are difficult to digest – such shashlik is not recommended for people with gastrointestinal diseases.
Poultry and fish are digested faster. It is better to add vegetables and greens to meat.
