I first came across a variation of this sauce whilst oogling over the work of Nobu Matsuhisa, a Japanese mastermind in the kitchen and I’ve put my own “simplifying” touches to it, to hopefully make it something we can all enjoy, in a speedy fashion, in the comfort of our own homes- it’s not quite the same obviously, but it’s pretty dang good if you ask me!
The stewed apple is a nutritionists best friend. They can contribute to gut health and reduce IBS/IBD symptoms in several ways:
1. Soluble Fiber: Apples contain soluble fibre, this type of fibre helps to regulate bowel movements supporting a healthier digestive system.
2. Pectin Content: This magical component in apples acts as a prebiotic, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.
3. Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Compounds in apples may have anti-inflammatory effects, potentially reducing inflammation in the digestive tract.
4. Easy to Digest: As with many foods, stewing apples makes them softer and easier to digest, making it a gentle option for individuals with sensitive stomachs and IBS issues.
5. Polyphenols: Apples contain an abundance of glorious polyphenols, which have antioxidant properties that may contribute to gut health and relieving IBS or IBD symptoms by reducing oxidative stress.
