Broad bean is one of the earliest bean crops cultivated by human beings. Broad beans are grown in more than 40 countries in the world, concentrated in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean coast. There are more than 40 cultivated varieties in China, and the output ranked first in the world in the 1950s, with an annual output of more than 3 billion kilograms. Use as cereal flour to make cakes and snacks. When tender, it is used as a new vegetable or feed. The seed contains 22.35% protein and 43% starch.
Broad bean is not only an important agricultural product to earn foreign exchange by export, but also has many uses in farming system-rotation of bean crops with other crops is beneficial to increase nitrogen content in soil and is an economic income-increasing crop.
Process an application
Broad beans have a wide range of uses, such as eating, fattening and feeding, mainly eating. Fresh broad beans can be directly cooked or processed into broad bean products. Broad bean products refer to products made from broad bean as the main raw material through a series of specific processing or refined extraction. They generally have the rich nutritional value of broad beans, and the nutritional components of some broad bean products are even more comprehensive than the broad beans themselves. Traditional broad bean products generally include non-fermented bean products and fermented bean products. There are many kinds of non-fermented bean products, such as spiced beans, bean jelly, vermicelli and bean paste. Fermented bean products generally include bean paste, bean paste hot sauce, soy sauce, sweet noodle sauce and other condiments, such as Sichuan Pixian bean paste.
food
Food processing is the main form of broad bean processing. The traditional method is to remove anti-nutritional components such as tannin, phytohemagglutinin, trypsin inhibitor, β-glycoside and inedible parts such as seed coat, so as to improve the edible quality of broad beans, improve convenience and expand production scale. Broad beans can be made into flavor food by industrial technology, such as adding fennel, salt, monosodium glutamate, star anise and other seasonings to cook, and adding safe and stable protective liquid to make various brine broad beans; Broad beans are puffed and salted to make crispy and delicious leisure puffed food. Broad bean starch can be separated by soaking, beating, precipitation and other technological processes, and the leftovers after starch separation can be comprehensively utilized. For example, calcium magnesium phytate and various protein can be extracted from pulp water, and amino acids can be extracted from protein by acid hydrolysis. Pulp water can also be used to cultivate beneficial algae and microorganisms on a large scale. In addition, bean dregs can also be used to brew soy sauce and liquor.
fodder
Broad beans can also be used as raw materials for aquatic feed. In freshwater culture, Fabrin was extracted from broad beans by experimental method, and then mixed with fish meal, soybean meal, cotton meal, rapeseed meal, soybean oil, calcium dihydrogen phosphate and choline chloride to make grass carp feed, which has positive effects on grass carp growth, muscle composition and serum biochemical indexes, and can improve the weight gain rate and survival rate of grass carp. The experimental study showed that grass carp fed with broad bean or broad bean extract grew better than grass carp fed with common feed, which fully showed the application value of broad bean in feed.
Edible attention
Broad beans should not be eaten raw, and those with weak spleen and stomach should not eat more. [4] Patients with broad bean allergy, hereditary red blood cell deficiency and bean disease should not eat it.
Eating too much may lead to abdominal distension, and people with indigestion can control it at a handful every day.
