Still mineral water

Description

Still mineral water has a clear, colorless hue and a fresh, neutral taste with a subtle mineral aftertaste that depends on the source. Free of bubbles, it is gentle on the palate and pairs well with a variety of dishes without overpowering their aromas. From a nutritional standpoint, it provides virtually zero calories, fat, protein, and carbohydrates, but valuable minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and sodium, which support hydration, muscle function, bone health, and the body's electrolyte balance. Regular consumption contributes to proper metabolism and fluid replenishment after exercise. In the kitchen, it serves as a versatile ingredient for drinking, cooking pasta, rice, and vegetables, preparing soups, cakes, diluting juices, and making delicate sauces and beverages; still water is also preferred for brewing tea and coffee, as it does not alter their consistency. It should be stored in tightly sealed bottles, in a cool and dark place, away from strong odors; once opened, it is best consumed within a few days, especially if bottled in plastic.
