This preparation is simple to make with seasonal products. It is a good velvety cream with a soft texture like a cloud. This winter velouté contains parsnips, leeks, and quinoa flakes.
Parsnip is a root vegetable, which contains a lot of zinc . This mineral is necessary for skin repair . In addition, its beige color comes from a flavonoid, called apigenin, which is a powerful antioxidant. It would boost the immune system . Like our Chaga, it therefore has extraordinary virtues . Tired skin: Get out!
Leek , star of fondues and crumbles, is a vegetable that promotes the elimination of toxins . It contains sulfur components, which help the liver to detoxify. It hides another antioxidant called allicin, which has major antimicrobial properties. Problematic skin: Stay quiet!
In addition to its absence of gluten, quinoa is rich in vitamin E , a friend in the fight against free radicals . It also contains lysine and saponin, an amino acid and a carbohydrate involved in the constitution of collagen. Direct action on the integrity of the skin, its repair, its sensitivity and on acne: Be Bl[æ]ssed!
