    When cooking in China, a lot of oil is put in, Koreans also eat oil but very little, occasionally eat Chinese food, but if you eat Chinese food, the stomach is very greasy and nausea, and eating too much oil is not good for the body, people with bad blood are easy to clog blood vessels, but blood circulation is very slow. So Koreans will find the Chinese diet too greasy.

    Korean Diet: Rice is the staple food in the daily diet of Koreans, and meat, beans, seafood, kimchi, soup, etc. are complementary foods. Among them, soup and kimchi are essential in the daily diet.

    The taste of these complementary foods often varies from one cook to another, although the same ingredients may be used.

    Koreans are very particular about food, and there is a saying that "food is one of the five blessings". Korean cuisine is characterized by the "five flavors and five colors", which are a combination of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty, and red, white, black, green, and yellow. The daily diet of Koreans is rice, kimchi, miso, chili paste, pickles, Bajin, and miso soup.

    The main ingredients of Bazhen cuisine are mung bean sprouts, soybean sprouts, water tofu, dried tofu, vermicelli, Tsubaki stem, Tibetan vegetables, and mushrooms.

    Koreans are particularly fond of chili peppers, and chili noodles and chili sauce are indispensable seasonings. This is similar to the cold and humid climate of South Korea, and the cultivation of rice needs to resist cold and humidity, just like kimchi, which is a must-have winter food with Korean national characteristics. In November every year, after washing and drying cabbage and rooka, add various seasonings such as chili, garlic, green onions, seafood, etc., cover them up in a large vat, seal them for half a month to one month and eat them.

    Each housewife has a unique technique and secret recipe for pickling kimchi, so the taste of kimchi varies from house to house.

    Koreans: The reason why Chinese like to drink tea is because the food is more greasy!

    Some foods in the Korean diet may give a greasy impression, but it doesn't mean that all Koreans eat greasy food. Here are some of the reasons that may explain why some Koreans prefer greasy food:

    1.Flavor and texture: Some Korean dishes such as fried chicken, fried spring rolls, fried hwanji, and other fried foods offer a unique bite and crispy texture on the palate, which appeals to many people's taste buds.

    2.Culture and traditions: In Korean culture, certain greasy foods such as fried chicken and fried steamed buns are considered to be socially active or shared with family and friends, especially at parties, celebrations, etc.

    4.Ingredients and cooking methods: Some of the recommended cooking methods used in traditional Korean cuisine, such as frying, pan-frying, and grilling, use more fat to enhance the texture and flavor of the ingredients.

    However, the Korean diet also includes many healthy and light options such as vegetables, seafood, tofu, etc. In fact, with the changes in Korean society, the concept of modern Korean food is also gradually developing, and more and more people are beginning to tend to eat healthy and balanced nutrition.

    It is worth mentioning that eating habits are the result of individual and cultural choices and are not representative of the eating habits of an entire country or nation. People's dietary preferences and habits are influenced by a variety of factors, including culture, history, economy, geography, etc.

    The difference between the taste of Korean food and Chinese food is actually quite big, although they are all countries that eat rice, and there are many cultural exchanges, but it does not mean that you have to kneel and lick everything, say a few things, I'm afraid the subject and some of the respondents are not very clear:

    A Bite of China documentary was not very popular abroad: what is there to record about chopping poor animals around?

    In Japan, most Japanese people think that Chinese food is greasy and greasy, so the audience is not as wide as most people think.

    Most Americans think that Chinese cuisine is egg fried rice in addition to lemon chicken, or else dog meat hot pot (lemon chicken is not a Chinese dish).

    The pattern of Chinese cuisine was formed in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, tomatoes, corn and other crops were originally American crops, which were not available in China before the Ming Dynasty, and most spices such as pepper were first spread to China during the Silk Road period of the Han Dynasty, so it can be said that the development of food is inseparable from cultural exchanges.

    Korean food is not very healthy from a nutritional point of view, because there are studies showing that there is too much sodium in it, but this does not mean that Korean food is not varied. Korea is not a large country, but seafood is abundant, and because of the scarcity of materials, the extension of pickled food is not as simple as most people in the country think, in addition, Korean barbecue, rice cakes and ginseng chicken soup are also very famous, and many people even believe that the origin of rice cakes is either Korea or Japan (not Koreans blow it themselves).

    Jeonju is the hometown of Korean cuisine.

    The reason why Korean jajangmyeon is sweet is because of the sauce made by Korea's own people, and the reason is political, and it is not related to the self-esteem of Koreans.

    In addition to kimchi, there are many different types of duck and chicken dishes in Korea.

    It should be said that Koreans like to eat Chinese food, and the concentrated expression is also in the meat, and most Koreans can't stand Chinese spices. No way, South Korea's land area is too small, and animal husbandry is destined to be underdeveloped, but this does not become a reason for some Chinese people to feel superior, after all, although there are many cattle, sheep and pigs raised in China, it has little to do with you.

    As an aside, I read a question before, do foreigners think Hanfu looks good? Which one is better, hanbok, kimono, or hanbok? - The subject of the costume is obviously talking about foreigners, but the following group of Hanfu parties are clamoring for Hanfu to be the highest!

    Hanfu is the best! And then all kinds of ** swipes are really enough, I'm not without national self-esteem, on the contrary, I think this situation is really embarrassing for the Chinese nation, greatness has always been a friend of tolerance, only arrogance and vulgarity are neighbors.

    Generally, it is relatively simple, and the staple food is rice, and sometimes barley, millet, and various legumes and other grains are also eaten. The dishes are made with a variety of vegetables, wild vegetables, seafood, meat or poultry, eggs, etc. Koreans are not accustomed to using greasy stir-fried dishes, and prefer to eat light lettuce, boiled vegetables and stews, and every meal must have a kimchi and soup marinated in vegetables such as cabbage, radish or cucumber with salt, garlic, onion, ginger, red pepper and other condiments, and they are used to eating it with soup.

    Soups include miso soup, vegetable soup, fish soup, and broth. Koreans love to eat spicy food, so chili peppers are a must-have for every family all year round. Commonly used seasonings in dishes include soy sauce, soybean paste, red pepper and chili paste.

    Famous Korean foods include bulgogi, sanseon oven, glutinous rice cakes, etc.

    I think this problem is like people from the north who go to the south and say that they eat rice all day long, and they feel that they get tired of eating it for a few days. What is the reason for this? I don't know wrong, I know that I have eaten Korean fried chicken, their fried chicken is juicy, and the feeling of going to McDonald's is different, and friends who have eaten two fried chicken will think that Korean fried chicken will be more delicious.

    However, a Cantonese dish of sweet and sour pork ribs can kill everything in seconds. Fresh pork ribs are fried until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and when you bite into it, you don't have the sweetness of Korean fried chicken, but the sweet and sour juice made with fresh tomatoes.

    Koreans who say that they eat Chinese food greasy must not have been to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the two Guangxi areas, Cantonese cuisine alone can let you eat a whole year is not the same, morning refreshments to a hair: phoenix feet, steamed pork ribs, cowboy bones, tangerine peel tripe, red rice sausage, salty pancakes, Chen Cun pork rib powder, salted rape that must be ordered, as well as special refreshments coconut ice cream, smooth shrimp dumplings, five-color tofu flowers, green cold powder is great, order a whole chicken feast at noon, the ingredients are all drinking mountain spring water, eat natural and healthy Qingyuan chicken.

    White-cut chicken, shredded chicken, salt-baked chicken, soy sauce chicken, soaked chicken, roast chicken, beggar chicken, woo wow, saliva is coming out. In the evening, replenish the spirit, the mother of the old fire and beautiful soup pulls a portion, cool and damp animation stewed pork bones, before meals to cool the stomach, carrot and corn stewed pork bones, qi and sperm and cordyceps bamboo silk chicken.

    Your little heart is throbbing with excitement, and your adrenaline hormones are rising, and I'm already eating supper while you're swallowing your saliva. Hahaha, late at night, a cup of strong tea and a few small pastries is a great joy in life.

    Come on, come on, take a trip to Baa City.

    Don't look at Koreans like to eat fried chicken and barbecue, but in fact, meat is very high on their side, which is a very luxurious thing, and they rarely eat it on weekdays.

    I read such an article on Weibo before, which tells about the circle of friends sent by a Chinese who has worked in South Korea for a long time, and it can be seen from the ** he posted that the daily meals are almost all kimchi and soup, no meat, and, there, like a big meal invited by Korean friends to him, it is just a small plate of meat, it can be seen that Koreans actually rarely eat meat, they eat more pickled pickles and instant noodles, which means that they usually consume very little fat. Therefore, in Korea, fried chicken and barbecue once in a long time will make them like it very much.

    But in China, it is different, Chinese cuisine has a major characteristic, that is, there is more oil, and meat is indispensable for meals. There are even some dishes that are too greasy, even some of us Chinese don't like them, such as the pot I ate in a store before, and when I bite into it, my mouth is full of oil, which is really too greasy. We're all so greasy, not to mention Koreans who don't eat much meat fat in their daily lives.

    Perhaps, when they first came to China, they would be pleasantly surprised by the abundance of meat, but if they eat it for a long time, they will definitely not be able to stand it, after all, they have grown up eating kimchi and instant noodles, and their stomach is more adapted to kimchi than fat.

    This is due to differences in the environment and eating habits, and the effects are deep-rooted, so it is no wonder that they find Chinese food greasy. But there are so many Chinese delicacies, even if they are a little greasy, there are many delicacies that have conquered the hearts of Koreans.

    There is a difference between Korean food and Chinese food: Chinese food is cooked with more frying, stir-frying and stewing, while Korean food tends to be steamed in clear soup.

    In addition, it is pointless to compare Korean fried chicken and barbecue with Chinese consommé and fresh water, and you can only tell which country is more oily by using the same kind of meal. For example, Han's fried chicken and Dongpo pork, grilled pork belly and lamb skewers grilled chicken wings.

    In fact, these things are almost as oily. The real difference is the vegetable dishes.

    For example, kimchi and stir-fry. In Korean, the word fried is rarely used, and it is basically grilled, blanched, or fried. In other words, their vegetables are cooked with less oil (pickled) more.

    Compared with braised eggplant, dry pot cauliflower, and Chengdu skewers, Korean side dishes such as kimchi, pickled radish, zucchini cake, stir-fried vegetables, etc. are relatively light.

    In addition, due to the topography of South Korea, seafood accounts for a large proportion of Korean food, and pork, beef and mutton are relatively expensive meat dishes, while the opposite is true in China's inland areas. Red meat dishes are naturally oilier than white meat vegetables, especially squid-based shrimp, seafood and the like will affect the taste of the dish.

    But when it comes to the pasta part, it's a completely different story. The traditional pasta of Chinese is made directly from wheat flour and is generally not fried. Compared to ramen, the national night snack in South Korea, Chinese noodles are much lighter.

    According to statistics, the love of ramen is one of the reasons for the high obesity rate among Korean people. In this regard, Chinese ramen is completely superior to Korean ramen (except for the inferior instant noodles, of course).

    Finally, in terms of eating habits, Korean food habits are to have clear soups with every meal, such as miso soup and kelp soup. The lack of a large amount of soup in the meal may also be the reason why they feel that Chinese food is greasy.

    That is, at the beginning, I was not used to eating it for the first time, so I tried it after a week. Moreover, the content of Chinese cuisine is so large that it is impossible to imagine that there are so many kinds of flavors and categories in the perception of foreigners. It's normal to generalize.

    Watching Korean food shows, you know that they really have a deep prejudice against Chinese food, and then see a lot of dishes that we think are very common, and we feel very incredible and impossible. Most foreigners think of Chinese food as stir-frying, stir-frying, and occasionally frying. I thought that the Chinese dim sum was steamed dumplings.

    Moreover, even in China, there are differences in taste, the north does not like the light and sweet of the south, and the south is not used to the oil and saltiness of the north. But you can't say that other people's food is not delicious, that can only say that you are not used to it. And it seems that most of the Chinese food that Korean and Japanese people know is from the north, especially Koreans.

    Maybe it's close to them, and the plane ticket is cheap.
