prepararlo también!
Ah, aqui tienes otro video para preparar un buen arroz con pollo.

Secrets of the Superfruit
After the emergence of Quinoa in American markets, the food industry is turning its attention to Latin America once again. However, this time these culinary entrepreneurs are in the market for a super fruit called the "pitaya."
Somewhere in a warehouse near downtown Philadelphia, Eric Helms is hoarding pitayas. "It is low in sugar," he explains of the Nicaragua-grown fruit, "and it's very of the moment." Or so he hopes: now that he's bought exclusive U.S. importing rights to the pitaya, he's blending it into upwards-of-$8 concoctions at his Juice Generation bars in New York City. In a few months, he says, it just might become America's next great superfruit.
He's not alone. After the success Pom Wonderful has had juicing high-antioxidant pomegranates, a new generation of entrepreneurs is aiming to parlay the health benefits of other fringe crops into million-dollar superfruit empires. In the past year alone, we've witnessed the emergence of the golden berry, the baobab fruit, the lingonberry and others.
But are they really as healthy as they seem? Like all fruits, superfruits tend to be high in fiber and antioxidants, which make them better snacks than most. But experts worry that the superfruit label--which comes from marketers, not the FDA--tricks people into thinking a single serving can confer all health benefits, "which is not true," says Jeffrey Blumberg, a nutrition professor at Tufts University. In the right mix, though, pitayas and their ilk can indeed be super. They just might have to mingle with the masses. "Apples and bananas are good too," says Blumberg.
