Japanese "top3 Chinese food" is not Chinese food at all. Are they all made in Japan?

Japanese restaurants are full of Chinese restaurants, but they are the most distinctive ones ridiculed by China people. Generally speaking, the ingredients sold in Chinese restaurants are naturally the specialties of China Rain. However, when I entered the restaurant, I realized that the Chinese restaurant was so different from our China specialties that even the ingredients provided didn't look like Chinese food at all. Why are Chinese restaurants often teased by China people?

In Japanese eyes, China cuisine has always had a ranking list. Just tell them their favorite China food, and they will definitely come up with these three ingredients: beef Lamian Noodles, fried rice with eggs and fried dumplings.

At first glance, these three ingredients are really related to China. Beef Lamian Noodles originated in China and spread to Japan to become Japanese beef Lamian Noodles. Fried rice with eggs is a special feature of China. Cooks who can cook fried rice with eggs are generally good at skills. Jiaozi is also a typical food in China. Although it is fried, it is jiaozi. However, the Chinese food top3 in my eyes today is not Chinese food at all, but all Japanese homemade ingredients.

Beef Lamian Noodles, which originated in China, was brought to Japan by historians in 1704. By the end of Ming smelting in Japan, Japanese beef noodles had appeared in Laixuan, Japan, and then gradually integrated into Japanese food culture, becoming the current Japanese beef noodles, which in turn was introduced to China from other places and became a special food. The characteristics of Japanese beef Lamian Noodles and China Lamian Noodles are completely different. The broth is thick and salty. Beef Lamian Noodles can be hard or soft, and there must be laver, barbecued pork and dried bamboo shoots.

Fried rice with eggs is a special feature of Chinese food. The simple one is fried rice with eggs, and the more complicated one is fried rice with eggs in Yangzhou. Japanese fried rice with eggs has little taste. Raw eggs, chicken breast, salt and onion can be fried into an egg fried rice, occasionally colored with a small amount of Japanese soy sauce. One of the most classic processes of Japanese fried rice with eggs is to put white rice into a big spoon or bowl and turn it upside down and put it on the plate.

Fried dumplings, jiaozi used to be a special food in China, but in Japan, the fancy will become single. Japanese fried dumplings have only one taste, that is, pork and cabbage, and there is no other choice. Jiaozi is only fried with food, and the fried jiaozi is generally coherent. There are 5-6 fried dumplings in one serving, which can be used as a fixed collocation of Chinese food or as a side dish of Japanese food. Fried dumplings are usually wrapped in a crescent shape, which is very full and full with us. Like gold coins, jiaozi is very different.

Why is Chinese food in Japan so different from what we expected? At first, there were restaurants in China and China. Although there is only one word difference, it is very different. Chinese restaurant is a snack written by Japanese. The chef is usually Japanese, and he is used to leaving out ingredients or changing the taste of China's special food to make it less sweet or even salty. China restaurant, where China sends Chinese food to Japan and the chef is usually China, is the real hometown flavor for us.

Therefore, if you want to eat the taste of childhood in Japan, don't choose Chinese restaurants, because the ingredients in Chinese restaurants are not Chinese food at all, but Chinese food that the Japanese themselves think. If you want to eat Chinese food, it is more appropriate to go to a Chinese restaurant on Zhonghua Street.
