Old kitchen wisdom says that you shouldn't reheat mushrooms and spinach again.
Is that true or is this advice out of date?
You hear it again and again: “Mushrooms * cannot be reheated under any circumstances.” And “Spinach must not be reheated.” Is that true?
Now you will find out the surprising truth: These foods can be stored very well, reheated the next day and consumed.
But you should follow a few
rules
!
Store leftover spinach and mushrooms - quickly in the refrigerator
It is important that you
let
the
remains of mushroom dishes or spinach
cool down quickly; if necessary, put them in a bath with ice water.
Then store the dish covered or in a sealed container in the refrigerator at an optimal temperature of 2 to 4 ° C.
If you then
prepare
the dish again
within a day
(longer is not recommended), there is no risk to your health.

Reheating spinach and mushrooms - you have to pay attention to this
But
you should also observe an important rule
when
heating
: it is essential that you heat the dishes at a
minimum temperature of 70 ° C
for at least two minutes. This is the only way to kill microorganisms. It's also important to know that reheated spinach is taboo for babies and children under three years of age. The vegetables are rich in nitrate, which can turn into nitrite when heated. This can be life-threatening for small children. However, once again heated spinach is safe for adults.
The claims that these ingredients cannot be stored and reheated go back to times when there were no refrigerators and leftover food was stored on the warm basement stairs, such as the initiative “Too good for the bin!”
of the Federal Ministry of Food declared.
