All About Mushrooms

Avatar for E. Armata TeamE. Armata Team

Mushrooms

Mushrooms are an earthy, nutrient-dense food that grows right from the soil we live on. Mushrooms are also great in protecting the body because they contain germanium– an important mineral that helps us to use oxygen and defend ourselves from free radicals. There is an array of different types of mushrooms that offer their own benefits and uses.

E. Armata, a produce distributor in NYC, has an immense variety of mushrooms and can help you pick out the best one for your needs.

The Best Uses For Coconut

Avatar for E. Armata TeamE. Armata Team

Coconut Uses

Coconuts aren’t just a tropical fruit: they actually have an array of different uses and benefits that we can incorporate into our healthy lifestyles. At E. Armata, a produce distributor in the Bronx, we sell a wide variety of tropicals like coconuts to help you receive all of the benefits and uses that they have to offer.

Coconut Water

When coconuts are used before they become ripe, the inside is mostly water instead of the white “flesh” that coconuts are known to have. Not only is coconut water delicious, but it is also highly nutritious. Coconut water contains only 46 calories in one serving size (one cup) as well as nutrients such as vitamin C, manganese, magnesium, protein, fiber, potassium, and sodium to name a few.

As a produce distributor in the Bronx, we source only the finest coconuts grown globally. Because of our emphasis on quality, this allows our many partnering retailers to provide the best for their customers.

Coconut Oil

The oil that is made from the flesh of the coconut is considered a “superfood.” The reason for this is that coconut oil provides an incredible amount of unique health benefits such as:

  • Fat loss

Because of the medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) within the coconut oil itself, your body can burn a significantly higher amount of fat than longer chain fats.

  • Improvements in the immune system

The fatty acids from coconut oil have been shown to kill dangerous pathogens within the body such as the yeast that is responsible for most yeast infections.

  • Hair, skin, and teeth health

Did you know that you don’t actually have to eat coconut oil for you to experience its benefits? Coconut oil has been shown to protect your hair against dangerous UV rays as well as provide ample moisture for your skin.

  • Cooking purposes

Substituting other oils such as butter or vegetable oil with coconut oil is a great, healthy alternative when cooking because coconut oil may provide you with a much more nutritious dish than traditional oils.

Coconut milk

Coconut milk is made from the white flesh of the coconut and is used as a lactose-free dairy substitute for those that are lactose intolerant or eat a dairy-free diet for other reasons. Not only is it easy on the stomach, but it is chock-full of essential nutrients such as fiber, calcium, and vitamin C.

If you are interested in learning more about the uses of coconuts and want to experience the benefits for yourself, contact our produce distributor in the Bronx today!

Pairing Fruits with Salads

Avatar for E. Armata TeamE. Armata Team

Salads are a healthy and delicious way to provide your body with a slew of essential vitamins and minerals. Pairing your salads with ingredients like protein, cruciferous vegetables, and even fruits can help amp up the volume of flavors in your lunch. It can be hard to know which fruits and vegetables to pair together because you don’t want to ruin your flavor profile, so we are here to help. At E. Armata, a produce distributor in NYC, we can provide you with an ample fruit and vegetable selection to help enhance your salads.

Healthy salad pairing ideas

  • Tomato with basil
    • Basil is a common herb that is used in many different dishes including salads.
    • Tomato and basil complement each other in a unique and savory way. The sweetness of the tomato perfectly complements the fresh herbal taste of the basil in a way that will refresh your palate.
    • This a common pairing that you might find at your local Italian restaurant, as both basil and tomatoes are a staple of Italian foods.
  • Avocado and tomato
    • Avocados and tomatoes are a great pair for your salad due to the unique, almost buttery consistency and very mild flavor of an avocado and the sweetness and crunchiness of a tomato. Together, these two are an unstoppable eat!
  • Strawberries and spinach
    • Raw spinach has just enough of a leafy taste to it that it won’t overpower the bold strawberry flavor.
    • Strawberries provide essential vitamin C while spinach provides essential protein to your salad.
    • This is another common salad pairing that you might find in a restaurant during the summertime when strawberries are in season.
    • At E. Armata, a produce distributor in NYC, we only offer the freshest ingredients that can be used in salads.
  • Fig and Avocado
    • Figs are a delicious fruit that offer a jam-like flavor and texture, while avocados provide the “creamy” factor to your salad.
    • Adding these two to your summer salad will give you just enough of a boost in flavor to satisfy you.

These four are all great salad pairings, but they are not the only ones. Visit our website to learn more about our produce distributor in NYC today!
