Kung Pao Chicken (宫保鸡丁)
Authentic Sichuan stir-fry with tender chicken, roasted peanuts, dried chillies and the signature tingly numbing spice of Sichuan peppercorn.
点心、北京烤鸭、宫保鸡丁和世界上最丰富的烹饪遗产。
中国菜不是一种菜系,而是一种文明,传统上可分为八大传统:四川的麻辣麻辣、粤菜的清蒸点心、江浙的精致甜味、湖南的干热、福建的汤菜、安徽的山料以及山东的北方麦焖菜。南北主食的区别——长江以上的面条、饺子和面包;下面的米饭——仍然组织日常饮食。
统一的语法是技巧和平衡。在炒锅中猛火炒,寻找“炒锅黑”,即珍贵的“炒锅的气息”;其他核心方法包括蒸、用大豆和冰糖红焖,以及用玉米淀粉使肉变得丝滑。味道是由共用的储藏室——生抽和老抽、绍兴酒、黑醋和镇江醋、豆瓣酱、豆瓣酱、蚝油、生姜、葱和大蒜——以不同地区不同的比例组合而成。
家庭烹饪比宴会菜肴更快更简单:典型的家庭晚餐是米饭加上两到三道快速炒菜和一份汤,从公共盘子里分享。饺子是北方人的一种公共仪式,尤其是在农历新年,而广东家庭则慢火慢炖滋补汤。西方人所熟知的中餐——杂碎、左宗棠鸡——都是侨民发明的。麻婆豆腐、叉烧、拉面等菜肴代表了家乡的传统。
炒锅技术
用预先准备好的原料和混合好的酱汁在高温下炒,产生“炒锅黑”——烟熏的“炒锅的气息”。
八个地方菜系
川菜、粤菜、湖南菜、江苏菜、浙江菜、福建菜、安徽菜、山东菜传统都保持着独特的风味特征和技术。
酱油、酒和醋储藏室
生抽、老抽、绍兴酒和镇江黑醋构成了大多数咸味菜肴的调味三重组合。
饺子和面条
北方小麦文化产生了饺子、包子和拉面,包饺子是农历新年的共同传统。
红焖
用酱油、绍兴酒、冰糖和芳香剂慢火烹煮,可以烹制出色泽光亮、味道浓郁的菜肴,例如红烧肉。
四川麻辣烫
辣椒的辣味 (là) 与四川花椒的麻辣味 (má) 的搭配定义了麻婆豆腐和水煮牛肉等菜肴。

中国菜以炒菜、饺子、面条、点心、北京烤鸭和麻婆豆腐而闻名——尽管它实际上是八个主要的地方传统,从四川的麻辣烫到广东的蒸菜。它的基础是炒锅技术、酱酒醋储藏室、南米北麦,以及家庭共享餐盘的饮食方式。
不——热量集中在特定区域。川菜和湘菜都是真正的火辣,使用辣椒、豆瓣酱和麻花椒。但粤菜——点心和国外大多数早期中餐馆背后的传统——刻意温和,优先考虑食材的新鲜度。江浙饮食趋向甜腻。中国的大部分地方菜根本不辣。
左宗棠鸡、杂碎和仰光蟹等外卖标准是侨民的发明,通常比大陆烹饪更甜、更重、酱汁更浓。中国的家庭烹饪较为清淡:以蔬菜为主的快速炒菜、蒸鱼、汤、粥和饺子,以米饭为主。糖醋在中国也有(上海的松鼠鱼),但只是数以千计的菜肴中的一种。
番茄炒鸡蛋是中国家常菜,只需十分钟。炒饭教用剩菜管理炒锅。大蒜炒蔬菜(白菜或芥兰)构建了油-芳香剂-蔬菜序列。豆瓣酱的麻婆豆腐是正宗的。在尝试从头开始制作面团之前,从商店购买的饺子皮是一个很好的周末项目。
调味用生抽,上色老抽,绍兴酒,镇江黑醋,烤香油,蚝油,勾芡用生粉,中性高烟点油。新鲜的生姜、大蒜和葱是芳香的基调。如果要做川菜,就加豆瓣酱和花椒。汤的结尾是白胡椒,而不是黑胡椒。
