用英文介绍一种蔬菜,和一种水果

carrot---胡罗卜
The carrot (Daucus carota) is a root vegetable,usually orange or white in color with a woody texture.The edible part of a carrot is a taproot.It is a biennial plant which grows a rosette of leaves in the spring and summer while building up the stout taproot,which stores large amounts of sugars for the plant to flower in the second year.The flowering stem grows to about 1 m tall,with umbels of white flowers.
Carrots can be eaten raw,whole,chopped or grated into salads for color,and are also often chopped and cooked in soups and stews.A well known dish is Carrots Julienne.One can also make carrot cake and carrot pudding.The greens are edible as a leaf vegetable,but are rarely eaten.Together with onion and celery,carrots are one of the primary vegetables used in a mirepoix to make various broths.
2.The pineapple---菠萝
(Ananas comosus) is a tropical tree and fruit (berry),native to Brazil,Bolivia,Peru,and Paraguay.The tree is a bromeliad (family Bromeliaceae),a short,herbaceous perennial with 30 or more trough-shaped and pointed leaves 30–100 cm long,surrounding a thick stem.The leaves of the Smooth Cayenne cultivar mostly lack spines except at the leaf tip,but the Spanish and Queen cultivars have large spines along the leaf margins.
Pineapple contains a proteolytic enzyme bromelain,which digests food by breaking down protein.Pineapple juice can thus be used as a marinade and tenderizer for meat.The enzymes in pineapples can interfere with the preparation of some foods,such as jelly or other gelatin-based desserts.There is significant evidence pointing to the anti-inflamatory benefits of bromelain.Some have claimed that pineapple has benefits for some intestinal disorders while others claim that it helps to induce childbirth when a baby is overdue.These enzymes can be hazardous to someone suffering from certain protein deficiencies or disorders,such as Ehlers-danlos.It can also be used in savory dishes to enhance digestion.
Pineapple is a good source of manganese,as well as containing significant amounts of Vitamin C and Vitamin B1.
