如果食物在度假期间脱落，冰柜技巧中的异常硬币可能会暴露

社交媒体黑客正在帮助人们检查他们的冷冻机是否保持适当的温度并保持食品安全，这涉及一分钱和杯子

A social media hack is helping people check if their freezers are staying the right temperature and may be affecting food safety.

社交媒体黑客正在帮助人们检查他们的冷冻机是否保持适当的温度，并可能影响食品安全。

Many people in the U.S. are living with older fridges, and sometimes can question if freezers are always running properly. A freezer that turns off and on allows food to defrost and freeze, which may compromise the safety of that food, leading to a potential food poisoning issue.

美国的许多人都与较老的冰箱一起生活，有时会质疑冰柜是否总是正常运行。冰柜可以关闭和播放，使食物可以解冻和冷冻，这可能会损害该食物的安全性，从而导致潜在的食物中毒问题。

One trick that has been doing the rounds on social media may help people check if their freezers are functioning as they should.

在社交媒体上进行巡回演出的一个技巧可能会帮助人们检查他们的冷冻机是否正常运行。

The trick is simple and pretty smart, and can help anyone gauge the functionality of their freezer. All you need is a penny and a cup of water. Let the cup of water freeze, and then put the penny on top.

技巧很简单又聪明，可以帮助任何人衡量冰箱的功能。您只需要一分钱和一杯水。让一杯水冷冻，然后将一分钱放在上面。

If you come back to the freezer and the penny sank, you know that the freezer is on the fritz. Be sure to use plastic, not glass, as glass can crack in the freezer, especially when filled with water.

如果您回到冰柜，便一分钱沉没了，您就会知道冰柜在弗里茨上。确保使用塑料而不是玻璃，因为玻璃会在冰箱中破裂，尤其是当充满水时。

If the penny sank, you may want to check out and chuck certain sensitive foods. Refreezing can affect the quality of food.

如果一分钱沉没了，您可能需要检查一下并将某些敏感食品袋装出来。重新冻结会影响食物的质量。

Another recent kitchen hack has been making headlines. A recent TikTok revealed the secret to making healthy snacks even more nutritious, which lies in the science of food combinations and their impact on nutrient absorption.

最近的另一个厨房黑客是头条新闻。最近的Tiktok揭示了使健康零食更加营养的秘诀，这在于食品组合的科学及其对营养吸收的影响。

Using tomatoes as an example, Nutritionist Will Bulsiewicz explained that combining them with olive oil, a gut health favorite, can amplify their nutritional benefits. This combination is not only perfect for topping bruschetta but also significantly affects how the body processes tomatoes.

以西红柿为例，营养学家Will Will Bulsiewicz解释说，将它们与肠道最爱的橄榄油结合在一起，可以扩大其营养益处。这种组合不仅非常适合覆盖布鲁斯切塔，而且还会显着影响人体处理西红柿的方式。

Tomatoes contain lycopene, a fat-soluble antioxidant compound that can protect against heart disease and reduce oxidative stress. However, the body struggles to absorb lycopene unless it’s combined with extra virgin olive oil.

西红柿含有番茄红素是一种脂溶性抗氧化剂，可预防心脏病并减少氧化应激。但是，除非与特级初榨橄榄油结合使用，否则人体会努力吸收番茄红素。

As Will explained, “The fat from the extra virgin olive oil actually helps you to get more of the lycopene from the tomatoes.”

正如Will解释的那样：“特级初榨橄榄油的脂肪实际上可以帮助您从西红柿中获取更多的番茄红素。”

Will also highlighted the concept of synergizing foods to enhance their nutritional benefits, citing the combination of black pepper with turmeric as an example.

还将强调协同食品以增强其营养益处的概念，理由是黑胡椒与姜黄的结合。

Pairing these two common spices together can improve the absorption of curcumin, a powerful anti-inflammatory component found in turmeric.

将这两种常见的香料配对可以改善姜黄素的吸收，姜黄素是姜黄中有强大的抗炎成分。

As explained by the Nutritionist, “We know that turmeric is fantastic for inflammation because of the curcumin in there. But our bodies don’t absorb turmeric very well.”

正如营养学家所解释的那样：“我们知道姜黄是炎症的绝妙，因为那里有姜黄素。但是我们的身体并不能很好地吸收姜黄。”

However, when turmeric is paired with black pepper, absorption is improved due to the presence of piperine in the pepper, which “dramatically increases” curcumin uptake.

但是，当姜黄与黑胡椒配对时，由于胡椒中存在果仁蛋白，吸收得到了改善，而胡椒中存在果皮，这“大大增加”了姜黄素的摄取。

This useful advice suggests that adding a pinch of both spices could be a wise choice when preparing your next curry dish.

这个有用的建议表明，在准备下一个咖喱菜时，添加两种香料可能是一个明智的选择。
