Cukes or pickles ?

First and second photo PICKLES ,,,,, Third and fourth photo CUKES.....

Now the difference is : The fresh vegetable as you use in salads is a cucumber & the method of preserving it is pickling,cumbers are immersed in vinegar to which salt & other spices may be added ,to improve the taste.Many types of vegetables are preserved by pickling & a variety of methods & recipes exist....
In another word ,, Pickles are preserved. Cucumbers are fresh.......

GOOD DAY MY FELLOW CITIZENS

Today I will be talking about one healthy spice and it benefit : OREGANO


OREGANO : Oregano is a wonderful herb, both to use in your cooking and to use therapeutically as needed. Its name means "mountain joy," and oregano was revered as a symbol of happiness by the ancient Greeks and Romans.
This does this medicinal herb a great disservice, since today we know that oregano contains vitamins A, C, E, and K, as well as fiber, folate, iron, magnesium, vitamin B6, calcium, and potassium. Additionally, oregano, which is sometimes called "wild marjoram" in Europe (and is closely related to the herb sweet marjoram2) contains potent phytochemicals that provide potential health benefits.


BENEFITS : Cancer-Fighting Effects, Useful for Upper Respiratory Infections, Anti-inflammatory Properties, and Antioxidants for Immune System Support.

More Than Flavor: Why Use Oregano in Your Cooking? : Oregano's warm, aromatic flavor works well with many foods. Try adding it to your salad dressings, vegetables, or eggs, for starters. Beyond this, one of the best uses for oregano in your cooking is adding it to meat prior to cooking, which may help reduce the toxic compounds created during the cooking process.

Hello fellow citizens, cooks and food lovers : Today we will be talking about GREEN BEANS and health benefits..

Possible health benefits of consuming green beans : Consuming fruits and vegetables of all kinds has long been associated with a reduced risk of many adverse health conditions. Many studies have suggested that increasing consumption of plant foods like green beans decreases the risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and overall mortality while promoting a healthy complexion, increased energy and overall lower weight.

Cancer : Green beans contain a high amount of chlorophyll, which can block the carcinogenic effects of heterocyclic amines generated when grilling meats at a high temperature. If you tend to like your grilled foods charred, make sure to pair them with green vegetables to decrease your risk.

Bone health : Low intakes of vitamin K have been associated with a higher risk for bone fracture. Adequate vitamin K consumption improves bone health by acting as a modifier of bone matrix proteins, improving calcium absorption and reducing urinary excretion of calcium.
One cup of green beans provides 14.4 micrograms of vitamin K (almost 20% of daily need) as well as 4% of calcium.


Recipes : Nothing special, just the same way we cook our local BEANS,, But if preferable you can add carrot, chicken, beef,, potatoes,, e.t.c...
