2. The correct way to heat boxed milk
1. Heating in microwave (careful)
Steps: - Pour the milk into a special container for microwave oven.No direct heating with box(The inner layer of aluminum foil may catch fire). - Heat over medium-low heat for 30 seconds, stir and continue to heat for 20 seconds, the total time should not exceed 1 minute. - The temperature is controlled at 40-50℃.
2. Waterproof heating method (recommended)
Steps: - Pour the boxed milk into the heat-resistant cup after opening it. - Soak the cup in 80℃ hot water for 3-5 minutes, stirring 1-2 times during the period. - Less nutrient loss and even heating.
3. Constant temperature mixer to heat
Applicable scenarios: for infants and young children. - Set the temperature at 45℃, put it directly into the milk box or pour it out for heating. - Automatic constant temperature to avoid overheating.
3. Comparison of different heating methods
Way | time consuming | Nutritional retention rate | Security risks |
---|---|---|---|
Micro-wave oven | 1 minute | 85% | Local overheating of high temperature |
Heating with water | 5 minutes | 95% | none |
Thermostat | 3 minutes | 90% | none |
4. Things to note
1.Absolutely forbiddenBoil directly with the box or microwave it may release harmful substances. 2. Drink immediately after heating to avoid repeated heating. 3. High-fat milk is easily delaminated when heated and shake well before drinking. 4. Diabetic patients recommend drinking it at low temperature to reduce the Maillard reaction (saccharification reaction).
5. Expert advice
The Chinese Nutrition Society pointed out that the heating temperature of boxed milk should not exceed 60℃, otherwise whey protein will denature and calcium will easily form precipitation. If you need hot drinks, pasteurized milk (refrigerated) is preferred, and its nutritional retention is better than room temperature milk.
Through scientific heating methods, you can enjoy a warm taste and retain nutrition to the greatest extent. Share this article to let more people avoid the misunderstanding of heating!
