Cauliflower has found its way into smoothies, rice bowls, and more. But now, it's broccoli that's causing a stir-in your coffee.
奶昔、饭菜等饮食中常见花椰菜的身影。但现在，西兰花掀起了一股热潮--西兰花咖啡。
The concept of broccoli coffee was developed in Australia by Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation and Hort Innovation. "With a rising trend in healthy eating across the board, Australian growers are always looking at ways to diversify their products and cut waste while meeting consumer demand," Hort Innovation chief executive John Lloyd said in a press release, later adding, "Research shows the average Australian is still not eating the recommended daily intake of vegetables a day, and options such as broccoli powder will help address this."
澳大利亚联邦科学和工业研究组织及Hort Innovation提出了西兰花咖啡这一概念。"随着健康饮食的趋势日益增长，澳大利亚种植商一直在寻找方法，使他们的产品多样化，并在达到消费者要求的同时减少浪费，"Hort Innovation的首席执行官约翰·劳埃德在一次新闻发布会中说道，随后补充道，"研究表明，平均而言，澳大利亚人每天摄入的蔬菜量并未达到日推荐量，而西兰花粉等选择有助于解决这一问题。"
The beverage's creators told the website Science Alert that the drink has received mixed reviews from the Melbourne coffee shop that's been serving it.
该饮料的创始人对Science Alert网站说道，这款饮料目前在墨尔本的咖啡店有卖，已收到各种各样的评论。
To make broccoli coffee, the vegetable is dried, ground into a fine powder, and scooped into your coffee. And while it's no sugar replacement, stirring the nutrient-rich powder into your cup of Joe does have its benefits: two tablespoons pack approximately one serving of vegetables. Not only that, it's a great way to use "ugly" veggies that might not sell in grocery stores.
若想制作西兰花咖啡，那么西兰花必须是干的、研磨成细粉，然后再倒入咖啡中。虽然它不是糖的替代品，但早晨在咖啡中加入这一富含营养物质的粉末的确能带来益处：两茶匙大约含有一份蔬菜。不仅如此，这也是处理杂货店卖相不好的蔬菜的一种极佳方式。
Health's contributing nutrition editor Cynthia Sass, RD, tells us we should consider getting on board with this trend.
《健康》杂志的特约营养编辑辛西娅·萨斯注册营养师告诉我们，这一趋势值得考虑。
"I like the idea of a product like this being used to reduce food waste and provide a simple way to add a serving of veggies, especially a cruciferous vegetable like broccoli, which is among the most protective against both heart disease and cancer, our two leading causes of death," she says. "Attempting to add it to coffee makes sense, because it's something most people already drink daily, and one of the best ways to create healthy change is to piggyback onto an existing habit."
"我很欣赏这样的想法：如此使用食物既能减少食物浪费，也能让我们多吃蔬菜，尤其是像西兰花这样的十字花科蔬菜，最能保护我们不患心脏病和癌症，而这两种疾病是致死的主要原因，"她说道。"将其加入咖啡之中是说得通的，因为大多数人每天都会喝咖啡，而打造健康变化的最佳方式之一就是将其融入至现有习惯。"
Sass suggests mixing it into other drinks or foods you consume regularly. "If you just can't stomach the idea of adding broccoli powder to your coffee, try another option, like whipping it into a smoothie, adding it to overnight oats along with fruit, or adding it to mashed avocado as a topping for nearly anything," she says.
萨斯建议将它放到你常喝的饮料或食物中。"如果你消化不了将西兰花粉倒入咖啡的概念，那可以试试其它方法，比如将西兰花加入奶昔中、早晨与水果一起加入到麦片中，或者放到牛油果泥中，跟任何食物搭配食用。"
