意大利麪加入抗衰老超級食物,味道超讚!

The anti-aging superfood is full of the vitamin your body needs to produce collagen, plus it's chock full of antioxidants.

這一抗衰老的超級食物富含人體分泌膠原蛋白所需的維生素，而且還富含抗氧化劑。

We're always looking for the next superfood or vegetable with hopes that will solve all of our problems. But what if that new magical ingredient is already hanging out in the crisper? And what if you haven't been taking advantage of all the delicious recipes it's used in? And what if you can actually eat it with pasta? That magical vegetable, my friends, is broccoli. Before you scrunch up your nose and click elsewhere, read on because Mom was right when she said "eat your veggies."

我們一直在尋找下一個超級食物或蔬菜，希望其替我們解決所有問題。但如果這一新的神奇成分已經在保鮮盒裏放着了呢？如果你並未完全利用這一超級食物製作美味菜餚呢？如果它可以和意大利麪一起搭配呢？我的朋友們，這一神奇蔬菜就是西蘭花。在你皺起鼻子棄文前，再看一看吧，因爲你的媽媽說對了--"多吃蔬菜"。

Broccoli, the cruciferous vegetable kids and adults love to hate, is edible and valuable all the way from its stem end to its tight clusters of tiny buds. Broccoli is an excellent source of vitamins A and C among other elements our body needs, such as iron and calcium. The interesting bit here is that in order for our body to produce collagen, it needs vitamin C. And broccoli is packed with it.

西蘭花是一種十字花科蔬菜，但兒童和成年人都不喜歡吃。從根部到頂部的一簇簇小花蕾，西蘭花全身都是寶，全身都可以吃。這一蔬菜是維生素A和維生素C的極佳來源，也是身體所需鐵元素和鈣元素的極佳來源。有趣的是，若要身體分泌膠原蛋白，必須補充維生素C。而西蘭花恰好富含這一維生素。

Steamed or raw broccoli is deliciously simple, of course. But you're missing out if you're not using up the entire head of broccoli. Not only does the veggie get you more bang for your buck, but you're also maximizing the superfood's anti-aging benefits by eating more of it. Think you're not a broccoli fan? Crank up the oven and try it roasted and then turned into a pesto.

當然，清蒸西蘭花或生西蘭花本身就很美味。西蘭花不僅物超所值，吃得多還能最大化的獲得其抗衰老功效。不喜歡吃西蘭花？準備好烤箱，將烤熟後的西蘭花製作香蒜醬。

In this Roasted Broccoli Pesto Pasta, the roasted broccoli stems and florets are pureed with almonds, cheese, lemon, arugula, oil, and reserved pasta cooking water. But to make a basic pesto all you really need is a nut and herb of choice, lemon, garlic, and oil-if that's all you have on hand, go rogue with those ingredients.

在製備好的烤西蘭花蒜香意大利麪中，烤西蘭花莖和花蕾上灑滿了杏仁、奶酪、檸檬、芝麻菜、油和預留的意大利麪水。但如果只是準備基礎款蒜香醬，只要堅果、一種草本植物、檸檬、大蒜和油就可以了--如果你手頭上只有這些食材，盡情發揮吧！

Get this anti-inflammatory and anti-aging veggie into your diet. If it's a hard sell, this pasta with broccoli pesto definitely won't be.

膳食常備這一消炎、抗衰老的蔬菜吧。如果你覺得西蘭花推不出去，我推薦的這款西蘭花蒜香醬肯定會大受歡迎。
