Japanese diet culture

The most impressive thing about Japanese cuisine is its fine workmanship and natural ingredients, which give people a clean and comfortable feeling. This is also one of the reasons for going to Japan. Feel the Japanese food culture with me.

Many restaurants in Japan are family-style restaurants with a long history of operation, which makes them work very hard and seriously on food. Whether it is operating high-end meals, or operating small noodle restaurants and stalls, it is very particular. It is estimated that this is the basis for the survival of many small restaurants. I have seen a small dumpling restaurant with a history of 54 years, which is amazing.

Japanese restaurants attach great importance to the environment and atmosphere. Even if you eat breakfast for free in the tatami room of the hotel, all this is impressive, giving people a feeling of atmosphere and emotional appeal, and suddenly your appetite is wide open.

I remember that in Honnōji Hotel, Kyoto, we had a free breakfast, and the house price was not very expensive in Japan. As a result, this free breakfast was delivered to our room. As soon as the waiter entered the guest room, he cleaned the room, set the table and served a hearty breakfast, which was beyond our imagination.

Japanese food is safe to eat, because the supervision is strict and the ingredients are green, so I dare to eat boldly. I ate it several times in Japan this time. It was really fat but not greasy, and the tender feeling was not very expensive.

I never drink tea bags free of charge in the hotel, and I don't like tea at all, let alone tea bags. However, I couldn't help drinking the hotel's free tea bag, and I also took a free one, because I had never drunk this kind of salty sour plum tea similar to seafood soup. Japanese plum tea is made of dried plums, green tea and a little soy sauce. It tastes a little sweet and sour, and can be used to treat anorexia and heatstroke caused by heat. )

China has had sour plum tea since ancient times, and there is an anecdote. In those days, Ximen Qing fell in love with Pan Jinlian and went to the teahouse in Wang Po five times in two days to inquire. Wang Po took out plum tea and gave it to him, metaphorically speaking, being a "matchmaker" helped Ximen Qing "quench his thirst".

When I went to Japan, many friends invited me to izakaya for a drink. It is said that Japanese workers often go to izakaya for a few drinks after work, and then go home with a great sense of accomplishment. Therefore, the streets are full of pubs. Dotonbori, Osaka's most famous food street, has dazzling food signs, and some small shops have to queue up.

I found a sushi restaurant with fresh ingredients and hand-made on the spot. It's delicious. The price is a little more expensive than that in China. It costs more than 300 RMB for two people.

Many restaurants in Japan didn't drink white wine at first, but it is said that Japanese sake is different from our white wine, and it is fermented from grain and koji. I tried it. It's addictive. Not as fragrant as domestic white wine, only a little old yellow wine, but the taste is very pure.

There are many grades of Japanese sake, from high to low: pure rice brewed in Yin Da (brewed in Yin Da), pure rice brewed in Yin Da (brewed in Yinniang), extra pure rice (pure rice) and extra-book brewed (brewed in books). So far, I can't tell good from bad, but it tastes good anyway. Sake tastes a little fastidious. You need to put it in a hip flask first and then heat it with water. It tastes good.

A simple Japanese meal is Lamian Noodles. Sometimes the lunch time is short, so most people just eat Lamian Noodles, which is simple and quick. However, their Lamian Noodles is a little different from ours, and the workmanship is very fine at the critical moment. It's just a photo of the chef taken at the ramen.

Their Lamian Noodles is delicious, and they ordered a signature Lamian Noodles, which is eggs, pork and bamboo shoots. But the eggs are warm spring eggs, half-cooked. Pork is secret, rotten and delicious, but a little salty and oily. If you eat in a bowl, you don't want to eat dinner.

In Kyoto, on the edge of Fujimi Road and University, there is an inconspicuous small restaurant with a signboard in front of it, saying that it has been rated as an excellent restaurant by foreign tourists for two consecutive years. After eating a meal in Lamian Noodles, this bowl of mackerel buckwheat noodles is much lighter, and the price is not very expensive, equivalent to RMB 47 yuan.

Oolong noodle is one of the noodles with the most Japanese characteristics, and it is also called the three major noodles in Japan with Japanese buckwheat noodles and green tea noodles. I didn't catch a cold before, but after eating udon noodles in a popular noodle restaurant called Maruko Noodle in Kyoto, my impression changed greatly.

This noodle restaurant is eaten by local people in Kyoto. Cheap and delicious. A bowl of noodles, 25 yuan, but you need to send the empty bowl back by yourself after eating. Oolong is very picky about diet. The restaurant has specially prepared instructions on the method of dough mixing, which are available in Chinese. I cooked a bunch of delicious food as I said, and almost licked all the plates.

Compared with the high-grade food in Lamian Noodles, there is also tea-soaked rice, which is called "samurai's food" in Japan, because it ignores the fast food on the way to March, uses fermented tea and hot water to brew tea leaves, and adds salt, dried plums, seaweed and other ingredients to the cold rice for soaking.

I like to eat Japanese-style ordered food very much, which is the set meal of Japanese restaurants. Mainly rice, rice is set at 250 grams. The ingredients are also standardized, such as pork cartilage, eel, pork chop and tempura, all around 100. Because food is standardized and easy to prepare, it is called fixed food. The price is not expensive either. If you are in a general restaurant, and the order price of this set of marine fish is around 50 yuan, then you are full.

When you go to Kobe, everyone knows the legendary Kobe beef, which is a Japanese high-end food that you can't help eating, ranking sixth among world-class foods. When I first ate it, it didn't taste like our beef at all, and it didn't have the meat quality of crude fiber. It is very soft. Many parts of beef can be eaten raw, and the price is really not cheap. A kilo of cheap beef is about three or four hundred yuan, and two or three thousand yuan is expensive.

The most obvious feature of Kobe beef is the marble pattern. Kobe beef must be native and pure in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, because it is fat and thin with excellent meat quality. However, Ma Niu is considered as a national treasure food in Japan, and only about 3,000 cows meet the quality requirements of Kobe beef every year.

Speaking of beef barbecue, by the way, Japanese barbecue, there are many barbecues in the stalls, but they are not barbecued with carbon wood. Many barbecues with muskets or gas are easy to master, but the taste is not as heavy as China barbecue, and it is not as delicious as charcoal barbecue.

I like grilled fish very much. One is salty enough, and the other is tender fish. Because there are many marine fish in Japan, the price is not expensive. I ate a large piece of grilled fish at a barbecue stall, which was equivalent to 30 yuan.

There are many barbecue shops in Japan, but they are completely different from our barbecue. Personally, except for grilled seafood, it is not as delicious as domestic barbecue.

Another food belongs to the same category as barbecue, that is, Guandong cooking. This is a very simple dish in kanto region in the past, that is, eggs, radishes, potatoes, kelp, konjac, fish balls and bamboo wheels (fish and bean products) are all cooked in the original soup, and can also be eaten with seasonings. I think the taste is too weak, and I like it very much.

Besides Kobe beef, another high-end Japanese food is of course Shi Huai food, which is also expensive. No matter how exquisite dishes and other utensils for holding food are works of art.

Cuisine is a very common Japanese cuisine in Japan. However, when monks meditate, they have hot stones to fight hunger, so they get the elegant name of Shi Huai cuisine.

The pursuit of Shi Huai Cai is that the realm is higher than the belly, so the workmanship is extremely exquisite. The so-called three dishes with one juice are delicious, and even the order of serving is exquisite. The weight is small, but the price is expensive. At least several hundred thousand yuan, about fourteen dishes, all works of art.

It's so delicate that sometimes I really feel reluctant to eat it. Before eating, I took photos carefully and found that every dish was very delicate, even a leaf of the vegetable was well arranged.

Many people exclaimed, how can you eat enough like this? In fact, don't say more than a dozen dishes, and you won't feel full after eating at last, at least you will feel seven points full.

You must eat persimmon leaf sushi when you go to Nara. Put marinated salmon slices and blue and white fish fillets on vinegar bibimbap and wrap them with persimmon leaves. Persimmon leaves can keep fresh and deodorize. Persimmon leaves in Zong Ping are the best. There was persimmon leaf sushi in Nara in ancient times. Don't eat leaves when eating. The first time I ate it, I even ate persimmon leaves.

Tofu in Kyoto, Japan really lives up to its reputation, with exquisite workmanship and ready-to-eat feeling. It is said that many of them are due to the addition of egg white.

All kinds of dried fruits are also good. I bought some dried blueberries at a stall, 100 yuan a pack. It tastes good, but it's a little expensive. These nattos sell for 100g for twenty or thirty yuan, whether they are delicious or not.

Among Japanese fruits, there are many strawberries, which are delicious, so I try to eat them in Sugar-Coated Berry, which is really beautiful. Just a little sweet and sour, more suitable for girls.

Japanese dim sum is really a must, with exquisite workmanship and no strong chemical flavor at critical moments, which always makes me eat enough. I don't know what this snack is called, but it is filled with ice cream. It tastes hot outside and cold inside, so it feels.
