Majeko ezvokudya zvechiAmerican zvakagadzirwa kubva kumigwagwa yakadzika pasi (chimiro chegorosi yakanyatsoshandiswa) iyo inotungidzirwa kusvikira yava nyore uye yakasviba.
Kana yakabikwa, gorosi inowedzera uye inobata mvura yekubika, inotora imwe gelatinized consistency. Kusiya kwakasiyana kwezvipembenene kunowanikwa, kubva pakakanyanya kusvika kune mashizha kusvika kune chakanaka. Kunyange zvazvo gorosi kazhinji kachena, inogona kuva yerozha zvakare.
Kusiyana kwemuvara ndeyekuti ndezvipi zviyo zvegorosi zvinoshandiswa kugadzira musha.
Zvikwereti zvine unhu hwakanyanyisa kune avo pachavo asi huchatora kunhuvira kwekubika kubika. Izvo zvinowanzosvibiswa nomunyu, mafuta, uye cheese panguva yekubika.
Murairo wakanaka wegunwe kana kubika grits ndeyokuti ivo vachawana kanenge kaviri vhudzi yavo mumvura. Nokudaro, kugadzirira imwe kapu yemagichi, iwe ungashandisa makapu mana emvura kana soro, kumira kwemaminitsi makumi maviri kusvika makumi maviri nemashanu kusvikira mvura yakanyatsogadzirwa. Mafuro epamusoro anowanikwawo, anobika mumaminitsi mashoma.
Majeko aya anozivikanwa pakudya kwekudya kwekudya kwemafuro muAmerica South, kwavanoshandiswa panzvimbo pebatei. Asi vanogona kudyiwa chero kudya, uye shrimp uye gorova iri ruzivo rwakakurumbira.
Zvikwereti = Polenta?
Uye zvino pane chimwe chinhu chausingazivi: grits uye polenta haisi zvimwechetezvo. Uye hazvirevi kuti polenta ndeyero uye grits ndeye (kazhinji) yakachena.
Sezvandakambotaura pamusoro, magiramu anogadzirwa kubva kumunda wakaomeswa. Uye shoko rokuti hominy rinoreva zvakananga kumbeu (kazhinji maruva akasiyana-siyana anonzi corn flint) ayo akabatwa nokudziya nekubika mukati mechigadziro chearkali, kazhinji chimwe chinhu chinonzi limewater.
Izvi zvinonzi nixtamalization, uye inoberekawo mamwe maitiro ehumwe emhando yemapindu anosiyanisa kubva mumunda wekudyara wakawanda (aka aka chibage chibage, kana chibage chete), iyo ndiyo inoshandiswa kugadzira chibage, chibage, uye hong, polenta.
Kutanga, nixtamalization inosunungura iyo niacin (vitamini B3) muchibage uye inobvumira kuti ipinde mumaturakiti edu ekudya. Uye chechipiri, inobereka shanduko yemakemikari iyo inobvumira mapuroteni nemahydrohydrates muvhu homic kuti agare pamwe chete. Izvi zvinoreva kuti kuwedzera mvura pasi yeupfu hwebindu (inonzi masa) inobvumira kuti iite pundu. Pasina iyo, zvaisazova zvisingakwanisi kugadzira zviyo zvegorosi-kuti tisareva chero tortilla chips .
Nixtamalization inobatsirawo kusunungura hupfudzi pamakona, kuita kuti kubata nyore nyore kugaya, kuwedzera nekugadzira zvinyorwa zvese panguva iyo zvakare kuzarura kunakidza uye kunhuhwirira. (Saka, zvipembenene zvakanyanya kupfuura polenta. Shandisa naro.)
Zvimwe zvekuvhiringidzika mumashoko zvinowanzonziwo kubva pane zvekuti polenta (yakagadzirwa kubva kumunda wechibage yevhu) dzimwe nguva inonzi "corn grits" apo grits (yakagadzirwa kubva kumigumisiro yepasi) inowanzonzi hominy grits kana Southern grits. Saka nezvose izvi zvakasiyana-siyana nezwi rokuti "grits" mumazita avo, zviri nyore kuvabatanidza vose muchinhu chimwe chete.
Asi yeuka: zvipembenene zvinogadzirwa kubva kumapindu, izvo zvinonzi nixtamalized corn. Iine ruvara rwakasiyana kubva kupolenta, mararamiro akasiyana-siyana emishonga, uyewo zvakasiyana nemamiriro ezvinhu kusvika pakukwanisa kuzviita muhupfu.
