Why does China's food culture take many forms, such as "boiling, frying and frying"?
Just as every country has its own culture, every country has a different understanding of food. We in China can be said to show the culture of eating incisively and vividly.

Needless to say, China, from ancient times to the present, from kings to the people, whether literati or ordinary people, are invincible under the "pomegranate skirt" of food! China is regarded as the most delicious country, not because there are many dishes, but because each dish has a unique taste. The biggest feature of Chinese cuisine can be summed up in eight words: "One dish is unique and all kinds of dishes are delicious", so sometimes I really admire my ancestors.

People in China are the most fastidious about eating. As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people. Children should drink milk as soon as they are born. A person's life will follow the ups and downs. China's food culture is profound, sweet in the south, salty in the north, spicy in the east and sour in the west. There are also Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, Guangdong cuisine and Beijing cuisine, and all kinds of foreign cultures. Therefore, all things disturb the guests and entertain guests and friends all the way.

People in China pay attention to food, and there are many famous books in Suiyuan Food List and Gourmet Classics, which reflect the importance of food. From the choice of ingredients, the cultivation of knife skills, the mastery of heat, and even the steps of eating, we must eat elegantly, taste and style, which is much more than drinking tea.

People are obsessed with cooking, relish the knowledge of eating, and pass on the origin of dishes from mouth to mouth. People in China have a very lively and elegant food flavor when the kitchen knife is tilted, the chopsticks are falling together and the five flavors are intertwined, which greatly enriches the connotation of "eating" and forms a changeable food culture, which is juxtaposed with historical culture and regional culture. This cultural phenomenon is unique to our 5,000-year-old civilization and deserves to be advocated and proud of.
