拉面、寿司、照烧和鲜味浓郁的日本料理。
日本料理——和食,于 2013 年获得联合国教科文组织认可——以高汤为中心,高汤是一种提供鲜味的海带和鲣鱼汤,这种味道由日本化学家池田菊苗于 1908 年发现并命名。几个世纪以来佛教对肉食的限制(直到 1872 年才取消)将日本料理推向了鱼类、大豆和蔬菜,从而产生了味噌、酱油、清酒和日本料理的发酵支柱。味醂和精进料理寺庙烹饪仍然影响着植物性技术。
正式的理想是“ichiju-sansai”——一汤、三菜、加上米饭和泡菜——强调季节性(顺)和视觉限制。不同的烹饪传承并存:江户时代的快餐,如来自东京的握寿司、天妇罗和荞麦面;京都精致的怀石多道菜餐点;大阪的大阪烧和章鱼烧的面糊文化。札幌味噌、博多猪骨、东京酱油等地方拉面风格展示了中国进口拉面如何重塑为全国人民的痴迷。
家庭烹饪看起来不太像寿司店:周末的餐桌上供应米饭、味噌汤、烤咸鱼、炖煮的蔬菜、咖喱饭(日本最受欢迎的家常菜,改编自英国海军咖喱)和盖饭。精确度在各个层面都很重要:将米冲洗直至水清澈,将刀磨成单斜面以实现干净的切割,并精确地少量调配橙醋、米醋和烤芝麻等调味品。
高汤和鲜味
整个菜肴的味噌汤、面汤和炖菜均采用昆布和鲣鱼片(熏鲣鱼片)制成的高汤。
米饭
经过冲洗和精确煮熟的短粒粳米是这顿饭的中心;寿司米饭添加调味醋,盖饭则在一碗上面盛放食物。
发酵调味料
味噌、酱油、清酒、味醂和米醋——大部分基于曲霉菌发酵——构成了日本烹饪的核心调味系统。
生鱼工艺
寿司和生鱼片取决于鱼的处理、刀法和米饭的温度,这种江户时代的街头食品已发展成为一种全球性的学科。
面条传统
荞麦面(荞麦)、乌冬面(小麦)和拉面都带有当地的汤汁和礼仪,根据季节热食或冷食。
一十三斋
一汤三菜、米饭和咸菜的膳食结构体现了日常饮食的平衡、适量和季节性。

日本料理以寿司、生鱼片、拉面、天妇罗、味噌汤以及联合国教科文组织认可的更广泛的和食传统而闻名。它的特点是鲜味浓郁的高汤、味噌和酱油等曲发酵调味料、细致的刀工、时令食材,以及米饭、汤和小均衡菜肴的“ichiju-sansai”膳食形式。
很大程度上是的,从结构设计来看:小份量、鱼蛋白、发酵食品、海藻和家庭烹饪中添加的最少脂肪与日本的高预期寿命相关。蒸、煮、烤多于煎炸。需要注意的是钠——酱油、味噌和泡菜加起来——以及猪骨拉面、炸猪排和天妇罗等放纵食物,这些都是偶尔吃的食物,而不是日常食物。
寿司不多——那是餐厅或特殊场合的食物。周末的主食是味增汤米饭、烤咸鲑鱼或鲭鱼、炖蔬菜、玉子烧煎蛋卷、咖喱饭(最受欢迎的家常菜)、饺子、盖饭(如亲子丼)以及冬季的一锅火锅。便利性也很重要:来自 depachika 食堂和便利店的优质预制食品是正常饮食的一部分。
从正确煮熟的米饭和速溶高汤制作的味噌汤开始——它们一起教授这顿饭的基础。亲子丼(鸡肉和鸡蛋盖饭)使用一个锅和基本的大豆、味醂、高汤调味比例。用肉酱块制作的日本咖喱几乎是万无一失的。玉子烧建立了无刀技巧,而用商店购买的包装纸制作的饺子则是一个令人满意的进步。寿司饭和天妇罗留到以后再吃。
他们的面条和传统有所不同。拉面是一种源自中国的小麦面条,用碱性甘水制成,有弹性,配以浓郁的猪肉、鸡肉或味噌汤。乌冬面是一种厚实、有嚼劲的普通小麦面条,汤底是清淡的高汤。荞麦面是一种细荞麦面条,味道有坚果味,可以在肉汤中热吃,也可以蘸酱凉吃——这是三者中最传统的一种。
