White Cabbage:
White cabbage is a low-calorie, fiber-rich vegetable abundant in Vitamins C and K. It supports digestive health and offers potential anti-cancer properties due to its sulforaphane content. It also boosts the immune system. It pairs well with ingredients like ground meat, carrots, and onions, making it a delicious choice for soups, stuffed dishes, or salads.
Egg:
Eggs are a highly bioavailable protein source, essential for muscle growth and repair. Rich in B12, Vitamin D, selenium, and choline, they support brain function, nervous system health, and energy production. Lutein and zeaxanthin pigments aid eye health, reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration. Despite their cholesterol content, eggs typically don't adversely affect blood cholesterol in most healthy individuals. A breakfast staple, eggs pair wonderfully with various ingredients like cheese, spinach, mushrooms, avocado, and whole-wheat bread.
Water:
Water is the foundation of life and indispensable for bodily functions. Its main roles include transporting nutrients and oxygen to cells, eliminating metabolic waste through the kidneys, and regulating body temperature. It is essential for joint health, organ protection, and maintaining cellular functions. Dehydration leads to low energy and kidney issues. When consumed with fibrous fruits and vegetables, water aids digestion. It forms a good combination with mineral water or herbal teas for electrolyte balance.
Flour:
Flour is a fundamental foodstuff obtained by grinding grains. It provides our body with a long-lasting energy source, especially through complex carbohydrates. Varieties like whole wheat flour, thanks to their high fiber content, support digestive health, provide a feeling of fullness, and help stabilize blood sugar levels. It also contains essential B vitamins (especially B1, B3, B9) and important minerals such as iron and magnesium, which are crucial for nervous system functions, energy production, and blood formation. It is versatile in the kitchen; forming the base for baked goods like bread and pastries when combined with milk, eggs, and yeast, while also being used to thicken sauces or create harmonious flavors with vegetables.
Fresh Onion:
Spring onion, a low-calorie vegetable, is a rich source of vitamins K and C. It supports bone health, aids blood clotting, and boosts the immune system. Its antioxidants protect the body against free radicals. Its fibrous nature supports digestion. It adds a refreshing flavor, especially in salads, omelets, soups, traditional Turkish dishes like 'cacık' and 'piyaz,' and pairs wonderfully with grilled meats and fish.
Dry Onion:
Dry onion is a kitchen staple and a powerful antioxidant source. Its quercetin content helps protect the body against free radicals, reduces inflammation, and may support heart health. Rich in Vitamins C and B6, and manganese, it strengthens the immune system. Its prebiotic fibers contribute to digestive health. It is widely used in dishes ranging from meat dishes to vegetable sautés, pilafs, and soups. It pairs perfectly with garlic, tomatoes, peppers, and red meat.
Parsley:
Parsley is a powerful antioxidant source that supports bone health and plays a crucial role in blood clotting due to its Vitamin K content. Its Vitamin C content strengthens immunity. Rich in flavonoids like apigenin, it can help reduce inflammation. It is also a natural diuretic. It pairs perfectly with lemon, garlic, and olive oil; adding a refreshing flavor to fish, chicken, soups, and salads.
Dill:
Dill is an aromatic herb frequently used in kitchens, rich in vitamins A and C, and various minerals. It is known for its digestive support, carminative (gas-reducing), and antioxidant properties. It also contains calcium, which can contribute to bone health. It adds a fresh touch to salads, cacık (yogurt dip), olive oil dishes, and fish meals.
Baking Powder:
Baking powder is a leavening agent typically composed of sodium bicarbonate and an acid, giving baked goods their rise. While it offers no direct nutritional benefits, its sodium bicarbonate content can provide temporary relief from heartburn and indigestion, and even support oral hygiene as a gargle. However, excessive consumption leads to high sodium intake. It pairs wonderfully with flour, sugar, dairy products, eggs, and fruits; it's indispensable in cakes, cookies, and bread.
Strained Yogurt:
Strained Yogurt is a thick, protein-rich dairy product obtained by removing its whey. Its high protein content is excellent for muscle development and sustained satiety. The straining process can lower lactose levels, potentially making it easier to digest for some. It's a good source of probiotics that support gut microbiota and calcium essential for strong bones. It pairs perfectly with garlic, olive oil, and fresh mint in savory appetizers, or with honey and fruits for breakfast or dessert.
Garlic:
Garlic, thanks to its allicin compound, offers strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It can boost the immune system, increasing resistance against illnesses. Furthermore, it contributes to cardiovascular health by helping regulate blood pressure and balance cholesterol levels. Widely used in traditional medicine, garlic is also known for its digestive support effects. An indispensable ingredient in meat dishes, vegetable sautés, and Mediterranean cuisine, it pairs wonderfully with herbs like rosemary and thyme.
