Today Summum We have selected ten dishes, delicacies and directions that can make your task of start with your detox routine.

Fismuler: green without more

En Fismuler the thing goes from product, product and product. And how does that product speak! It is true that the times when vegetables seemed boring to us are long gone, but the green pods with pea cream in this restaurant are from another planet.

Tasty, creamy and with a lot of soul, this dish is made with various types of pods (flat bean, French bean, pint, snow peas, sweet peas), peeled broad beans and mini peas from Maresme. It is served both in the premises of Madrid and in Barcelona. If you are planning eat only vegetables for a few daysIn this case, the “sacrifice” may turn into pure pleasure.

Açaí bowl, the perfect breakfast (and trendy!)

They are nutritious, healthy and very fashionable. The smoothie bowls are super smoothies of fruits and vegetables with a thick texture (eaten with a spoon) and endless toppings ranging from fresh fruit to cereals, nuts and granola. The most famous smoothie bowl, the one that started the phenomenon, is the one that takes acai. It is a small berry native to the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest, poor in sugars and rich in vitamin A and E, omega-3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, amino acids, calcium, phosphorus among others.

In the açaí bars of Beleeza, in Madrid, they not only make this specialty, but also personalize it according to the tastes of each one (you can choose the base with and without yogurt, granola, fruit and toppings) and they even send it to your home.

Belleberry, eat healthy, sustainable and without leaving the office

“If we don’t dress the same in winter as in summer … How are we going to eat the same?” So speak Ana M. Salter when we ask him for Belleberry, the catering company that he founded last year after many years dedicated to gastronomic communication.

In this new project, the journalist, also graduated from Le Cordon Bleu, focuses on fresh, light cuisine (with lots of fruit and vegetables), seasonal and sustainable. The ingredients come from their own garden or from nearby orchards and markets in the area.

Some ideal winter dishes? A salad with bulgur and organic cereals, romanesco broccoli, purple and white cauliflower, beetroot and spinach, a taquito of tuna with mango, persimon persimmon, coriander and sesame and a lemon sponge cake.

The most exclusive matcha

It is the most exclusive tea, calming and energizing at the same time and above all rich in antioxidants. And although its distribution has recently reached supermarkets and with affordable prices, there is matcha and matcha.

The Classic Matcha of The Matcha House It is the most expensive and of the highest quality among those that are intended for the tea ceremony. For this variety are used only the shoots of the first harvest spring shrubs thirty to one hundred years old.

The shoots are harvested by hand and are subject to special care also in the grinding phase, as a traditional stone grinder is used until a very fine texture is reached. A 30 gr can of this exclusive roza tea the 30 euros.

Magasand is always a good idea

Food healthy and eco, a neat and informal environment and the most difficult to find fashion, architecture and design magazines. After ten years of existence, the formula of Magasand It remains the same. And we like it!

Among his most successful proposals to climb this peculiar gastronomic January slope, is the Spiquinoa (a salad with spinach, quinoa, toasted almonds, pomegranate, feta cheese, red onion and honey mustard dressing) and the detox juice with apple, spinach, kale, cucumber, ginger and celery. And for dessert, just fruit.

Do you know the camu-camu?

El camu camu It is a fruit similar to a cherry, native to the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. It is collected between November and February, but perhaps its most outstanding characteristic is that it is especially rich in ascorbic acid, being about 3% of its weight pure vitamin C. Thirty times more than oranges!

It also contains amino acids, B vitamins, minerals such as potassium, and antioxidants such as beta-carotenes. Of course, so as not to waste this treasure of vitamins, the camu-camu has to be consumed raw or, as is more usual, in lyophilized powder to add to juices, desserts or any other liquid preparation.

Dos Cielos Madrid: some heavenly peas

Two Skies Madrid It is located in the old stables of the palace that houses the luxurious hotel Grand Meliá Palace of the Dukes.

The dish is returning to this Madrid enclave of the Torres brothers Green tears, made with the first pea blooms from the orchards of Maresme. The peas are served with a reduction of Iberian ham and a veil of Iberian bacon.

Teresa’s Juicery: squeezing nature

Detox with spinach, cucumber, celery, kale, romaine lettuce, carrot, beet and nettle? Or Virus killer with ginger, lemon, purified water, pear, honey, echinacea, thyme, lemon verbena and rock tea?

These are just some of the attractive options in the range of juices from Teresa’s Juicery, one of the group’s business lines Teresa Carles Healthy Foods, focused on healthy food.

Is zumos cold pressed, a fashionable technique that, by not heating the ingredients, as happens with traditional blenders, minimizes the oxidation of the ingredients and keeps all the nutrients intact. The six juice packs they are completely customizable and are delivered throughout the peninsula without additional costs.

Bud gastronomy

They add flavor, freshness and texture to any dish. And on top of that they do well. Sprouts and sprouts they are tiny nutritional treasures. The nutritionist Carla zaplana includes them in his book Superfoods and give a few reasons why you should eat them. Among them is that during the germination process “a large part of carbohydrates are transformed into simple sugars, fats into fatty acids, proteins into amino acids, the content of vitamins is between three and twelve times higher.”

Alfalfa sprouts, clover, pumpkin seed, radish, broccoli, lentils, quinoa, buckwheat. We can buy them (it is increasingly common to find a certain variety in supermarkets) or make them at home. Finally, we can add them to juices, salads, sandwiches or use them as a simple garnish. Already there are no excuses not to get the most out of it to something so small and so powerful.

Natural Athlete: sugar-free granola

Natural Athlete is a line of natural and organic products behind which is Niklas Gustafson, a Swedish businessman based in Madrid and a guru of the paleo diet.

Among the options, all without sugar, we find the granola – essential already among lovers of healthy breakfasts and snacks – such as amaranth, blueberries and cardamom or goji berries, ginger and cinnamon.

They are also gluten free, something that makes them a good choice for those who must do without gluten in their diet. Its price is around 6 euros and it can be purchased both in your physical store in Madrid and in some large supermarkets.
