-

wheat germ oil is obtained by cold pressing and without embryo solvents caryopsis of wheat. It is a very thick oil, yellow in colour tending to ocher, used both for cosmetic purposes and for food use.

Its main property is the richness of vitamin E; it also has a high content of omega 3 and omega 6.

Wheat germ oil for skincare

wheat germ oil is very nutritious and has antioxidant qualities; therefore, it helps to counteract cellular ageing. It can be considered a natural anti-wrinkle. Wheat germ oil on the skin can be used in several ways:

Instead of night cream. Apply a few drops of wheat germ oil to the face that is well cleansed and still damp, without forgetting to treat the area around the lips and around the eyes.

As an anti-wrinkle pack. A couple of times a month, apply a generous amount of wheat germ oil to the skin of the face in the evening. Wait about fifteen minutes and remove the excess with gauze.

After the shower. On still damp skin, apply a few drops of wheat germ oil. Wheat germ oil is particularly thick and does not absorb very quickly, so it is advisable to wait a few minutes before getting dressed so as not to stain your clothing. It is indicated in case of very dry skin, to prevent stretch marks and, in summer, after sun exposure. If you do not want to apply it pure, you can mix it with other less dense oils (for example sweet almond oil ) or you can add a few drops in your body cream.

As an after-sun. Thanks to its emollient and restorative action, wheat germ oil can replace after-sun products. Use in the shower as described above. In case of sunburn, treat the skin with a few drops of wheat germ oil.

On the hands. In case of chapped hands and/or tried by the use of aggressive products or housework, use wheat germ oil instead of hand cream, on wet skin, without forgetting the nails; this vegetable oil, in fact, also helps to solve the problem of flaking nails.

Wheat germ oil for hair care

When it comes to the cosmetic use of wheat germ oil, the first use that comes to mind is on hair. This ingredient is, in fact, contained in a lot of shampoos and treatments used to make the hair beautiful.

Before shampooing. To give strength and shine to the hair, make a restructuring mask using one or two tablespoons of wheat germ oil on the hair, half an hour before washing it.

For internal use. Wheat germ oil for beauty can also be taken internally, as a food supplement. In health food stores and para pharmacies, you can buy wheat germ oil pearls to be taken cyclically, for example for a few weeks, before and during a beach holiday.

POLENTA GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA, A FIRST RUSTIC

-
Image
Polenta gnocchi with gorgonzola dumplings, a true symphony of first fruits Polenta gnocchi with gorgonzola is a very tasty first course, with a rustic character and quite simple to prepare. They differ from traditional gnocchi as they are not made with potatoes, but with polenta. Consequently, the procedure is also quite different. To prepare these dumplings, in fact, the polenta must first be cooked (using other ingredients, such as gorgonzola) and then divided into balls. The result is different than usual and is able to tantalize the palate. Also from an aesthetic point of view, it looks good, especially for a pleasant golden yellow (also thanks to the passage to the grill). As for the nutritional principles, I must admit, we are not dealing with a light dish. Also because there are many ingredients that exceed the number of carbohydrates and fats. I believe, however, that once in a while an exception to the rule is good, on some occasions it is allowed to yield to taste without thi...

  Crostini with smoked mackerel, colour and taste for a delicate appetizer Crostini with smoked mackerel are small appetizers able to satisfy the palate and the sight. Among other things, they are also the classic appetizers that allow you to make a good impression in the presence of your diners. Firstly because they are simply delicious, secondly because they offer unusual scents. In fact, they are the result of uncommon combinations neither within the starters category nor among the first or second courses. In short, these crostini with smoked mackerel represent something new, which certainly will not fail to tantalize the palate. True, in some cases the ingredients are not so available. The reference is above all to the spinal, a fish preparation that I will deepen in the next paragraph. However, the recipe is really simple, in fact, it involves simply composing the croutons. The only element of difficulty, if you can call it that, concerns the creation of the emulsion, which is...
