The status of Chinese food in the world, what is the real status of Chinese food abroad

As a big country with 5,000 years of splendid culture, China's food culture also has a long history. Chinese cuisine is divided into eight major cuisines, namely Sichuan, Shandong, Zhejiang, Suzhou, Guangdong, Fujian, Hunan and Hui. Traditional Chinese cooking methods also include frying, boiling, stewing, stir-frying, and grilling. and so on more than a dozen.

Although the world's three major cuisines are Chinese, French and Turkish, Chinese cuisine is far inferior to the latter two.

In fact, everyone who was born and raised in Chinese culture or loves Chinese culture knows that there are not only many types of Chinese food, but also different tastes. It pays attention to "color, fragrance and taste", and is a veritable "country on the tip of the tongue".

What is the reason for the embarrassment of Chinese food in the global position?

Chinese. Differences in eating habits.

The cooking steps of Chinese food are complex, and there are many kinds of seasonings such as Hunan cuisine and Sichuan cuisine. Chinese food also tends to use a lot of oil, which can lead foreigners who value a balanced diet to think that it is too oily and unhealthy. It is also contrary to the habits of Europeans and Americans who like to retain the original flavor of food, and the flavor of eating Chinese food without ingredients makes it difficult for Europeans and Americans to accept.

On the other hand, Japanese food can also conquer the taste buds of foreigners as an Asian cuisine. Japanese food is generally light, and attention is paid to preserving the original flavor of the ingredients, and there are many dishes such as sashimi and sushi that can be eaten raw without too much processing. In addition, the Japanese food is very refreshing, and you can see at a glance what the raw materials of the dishes are, which is also in line with the habits of Europeans and Americans to retain the flavor of the ingredients.

Many dishes in Chinese food are spicy, even if the Chinese themselves consider them slightly spicy. But for a foreigner who is not used to eating spicy food, it may already be considered very spicy. It's hard to get people who don't know how to eat spicy food to get used to eating a spicy diet.

In addition, European and American gatherings are divided into separate meals. The characteristics of Chinese cuisine are in conflict with the characteristics of their meals. Because Chinese food is cooked according to the original intention of many people sharing a dish together, it is not suitable for a separate meal system in terms of portion, presentation and type of dish.

However, many foreigners who appear in Chinese restaurants still choose to divide the meal system due to their eating habits, that is, one person orders one dish. Doing so is actually detrimental to the promotion of Chinese food.

Although there are many Chinese restaurants abroad, they are relatively high, and most of the people who go to eat Chinese food are some overseas Chinese, in the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese food is too greasy and too spicy.

People's eating habits are formed over a long period of time, with strong subjectivity, and it cannot be said that the taste of Chinese food is better than that of other countries. I have brought some British and Americans to China for technical exchanges or something, some of them like Chinese food very much, they can eat it every day, and some of them don't.

Features of Chinese food. 1. In the selection of materials, because most people in our country are less constrained by religious taboos in their diet, and people like to hunt for curiosities in their diets, and pay attention to rare and expensive things, so the selection of Chinese food is very extensive, almost flying, diving, moving, planting, and eating everything.

2. In terms of raw material processing, Chinese chefs pay great attention to knife work, and can process raw materials into small silks, dices, slices, and end knife edges.

Chinese food is relatively popular abroad. Nowadays, in almost every country in the world, we can easily find the figure of Chinese restaurants, which shows that Chinese food has spread to all corners of the worldWorld cuisineIt occupies a relatively important position and has become one of the favorite delicacies of people from all over the world.

Chinese culinary culture is broad and profound, and it has its own unique charm in terms of cooking skills and taste characteristics. Unlike Western food, where an oven and frying pan can be used to make all dishes, Chinese food is cooked in a variety of ways, such as stir-frying, frying, frying, stewing, boiling, etc.

In addition to the sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, etc., there are also a variety of flavors such as fresh and fresh, and in addition to the characteristics of the dish itself, we can also give Chinese food a more unique taste through a variety of seasonings and dipping sauces.

Other introductions to Chinese food

Chinese food has a variety of dishes, rich production materials, and each region has its own special food, so it has attracted many foreign food lovers. Traditional Chinese cuisine can be divided into eight major cuisines: Sichuan, Guangdong, Shandong, Suzhou, Zhejiang, Fujian, Hui and Hunan.

The characteristics of the cuisine are spicy, tender, affordable and diverse, fine, rustic, delicate, simple and sour and spicy. As the saying goes, it's hard to reconcile all mouths, but Chinese food can win recognition from all over the world with its variety of cuisines.

We have always been proud of the long-standing Chinese cuisine, but when we go abroad, we find that Chinese cuisine is not common, compared to Japanese cuisine and Indian cuisine, it is rarely recognized by foreigners, and it is difficult to find traces of Chinese cuisine in various ratings and awards, so what is the status of Chinese cuisine in the world? What caused this?

The international status of Chinese cuisine.

In Japan, Chinese food is the third largest cuisine after French cuisine and Turkish cuisine, while in Italy, Chinese cuisine is the third largest cuisine after French cuisine and Italian cuisine. In the application for intangible cultural heritage, even Korean kimchi has been selected, and the Chinese food culture is broad and profound, Sichuan cuisine, Cantonese cuisine, Shandong cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine, Fujian cuisine, Zhejiang cuisine, Northwest cuisine and so on are innumerable.

Why is the international status of Chinese cuisine not high?

Since we want to mention the international status of Chinese cuisine, we have to mention Chinese cuisine internationally, the largest Chinese food chain in the United States is a restaurant called Panda Restaurant.

Panda Restaurant's fried noodles**, although it looks pretty good, but in fact this fried noodles taste quite monotonous, and there is basically no second taste.

Tangerine Peel Chicken, a delicacy that almost does not exist in China, has a sweet and sour taste, a Chinese food created for Americans, and foreigners love to eat it.

Five-spice shrimp, although known as five-spice, is actually much lighter than the seasoning taste of Xinjiang cuisine.

Green bean chicken breast, also stir-fried, tastes as sweet as ever, and Americans really like to eat sugar.

Kung Pao Chicken, which is the consensus of Chinese and foreign foodies, is quite well-known for its sour, spicy, spicy, sweet and sour, and is one of the first Chinese dishes with an English name.

Teriyaki chicken, this is very Westernized, there is this kind of rice ** in Texas, the same sweetness, for Chinese is really not pure Chinese food.

Chinese fried rice is quite light, and the taste is also sweet and sour, Yangzhou fried rice is so famous that it can't occupy a place.

Chicken potstickers, this kind of potstickers will not have a market when placed in the pot, and the appearance is really bad.

There is also Zuo Zongtang Chicken, a dish created by Chiang Kai-shek's chef in the United States, which is quite famous in the United States, but this dish cannot be found in China at all.

Foreigners claim to be able to eat spicy, but in fact they can't eat spicy, the spicy taste in Chinese food is just excluded, KFC McDonald's spicy burger has been eaten, right? This is the spicy taste that foreigners perceive.

Notice the "cold gaze" of the fish

Many dishes are not eaten by foreigners, and the taste is secondary, mainly because the appearance is unacceptable, such as the head of any animal, which few foreigners can accept, except for the British "stargazing" ......That's wonderful.

In addition, there are other cuisines that we underestimate that we consider niche, such as Thai cuisine, which has a high international status, such as stir-fried pork.

In fact, there is no so-called status of Chinese food in the world, but Chinese food is just a few changes made to cater to the tastes of the locals.

Chinese food has a good status in the world, after all, it is one of the three major cuisines in the world. Moreover, many foreigners have been conquered by our Chinese cuisine.

Nowadays, the status of Chinese food in the world is very large. Because many foreigners are slowly accepting Chinese food.

The place of Chinese food in the world. It's in the first place. Every country, every region, every omission will have it. Lunch at noon eating meal.

It can be seen that it is not very high, because the restaurants in our country are not favored by that kind of it, because there is no way to standardize, many times the personal taste is very serious, and it is difficult to make a standard like adding things in moderation.

Zhongshan's position in the world is certainly very stable, because the Chinese population is large.

Hello, the Super League now has a very high status in the world, and it has also united to that foreign country, and some people like to eat that Chinese food.

Now the middle class is definitely among the top three in the world, there is no doubt about it.

Chinese food is unique in the world, and there are only Western and Chinese food in the world.

Hello, Chinese food is still very delicious, there are quite a lot of people, people from other places like to eat Chinese food, the taste is better.

Chinese food is the crystallization of China's 5,000-year-old food culture and enjoys a high reputation in the world.

I think there are more and more Chinese food lovers in the world now.

Although the status of the Super League in the world is not very high, it is relatively popular.

Although there are many Chinese restaurants abroad, but the ** is relatively high, and most of the people who go to eat Chinese food are some overseas Chinese, in the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese food is too greasy, and too spicy, many foreigners prefer to eat sweets, so they can't accept the heavy taste of Chinese food at all.

People's eating habits are formed for a long time, with a strong subjectivity, and it cannot be said that the taste of Chinese food is better than the taste of other countries, just like Shaanxi people feel that their various snacks are more and delicious, and they are not used to working in Guangzhou, but I think that all kinds of snacks of Cantonese cuisine are the first in the world, and I can only eat hot pot once in a while when I go to Sichuan, but the locals can eat hot pot every day.

Not only is Chinese food not close enough to the West in terms of taste, but it is also difficult for Western people to understand the way it is prepared. Because Chinese food is highly complex, many foods require complex processing before they can be distributed.

It can be found that whether it is in overseas Chinese restaurants or teaching courses to promote Chinese food, basically the dishes are simplified, and naturally they are not so delicious, and it can even be said that they are not Chinese food at all.

The seasonings of each dish in Chinese food are not the same, some dishes need seven or eight or even a dozen kinds of seasonings, some dishes need to be boiled first and then fried, some dishes must be fried first and then boiled, stewed red stew and yellow stew, stir-fried can be divided into ...... such as stir-frying, stewing, stir-frying, etcIn short, the complexity is much higher than that of many Western and Japanese foods.

When it comes to Japanese food, the taste is not spicy, and it is easier to cook than Chinese food, so it is easy to localize Japanese food in Europe, and the more people eat it, the more popular it is, and the status is higher.

I have brought some British and Americans to China for technical exchanges or something, some of them like to eat Chinese food every day, and some of them don't like to eat, and they would rather eat the hotel buffet after one or two meals. But even if they like Chinese food very much, they still go back to eat the food they usually eat.

People's eating habits are formed over a long period of time, with strong subjectivity, and it cannot be said that the taste of Chinese food is better than that of other countries. For example, Shaanxi people think that their various snacks are many and delicious, and they are not used to working in Guangzhou, but I think that the various snacks of Cantonese cuisine are the best in the world. When I went to Sichuan, I could only eat hot pot once in a while, but the locals could eat hot pot every day.

In addition, Chinese food is just a big concept, and there is a big gap between tastes and habits, and the tastes of people in the north and south cannot adapt to each other.

What is the status of Cantonese cuisine in Sichuan? The status of the locals rarely eats!

Western food is very popular in China!

If you want to engage in the western food industry, it is recommended that you have an in-depth understanding of the different consumption and positioning generated by different regions in different regions. High-end Western food in big cities is positioned as high-end, elegant and comfortable decoration, and Western food tastes pure, but if it is a small city, people who may have less contact with Western food are not used to this kind of purity. Therefore, if it is in a small and medium-sized city in the mainland, it is necessary to take into account the taste of Chinese and make adjustments.

I hope mine is helpful to you and have a nice day!
