sunshine~: Chinese Cooking Introduction for my prof

As everyone knows, China is a country with a long history, vast territory ,56nationalities ,and a large population.If you ask me to say something about Chinese cooking culture,it is indeed a very difficult question.I'm afraid to say it for a whole night .Chinese food can be divided into eight categories as regional division, （Shandong cuisine, sichuan, guangdong, fujian, zhejiang, jiangsu dish, hunan, cuisine）.Chinese food has five characteristics that are color, aroma, taste, meaning and form.There are variety kinds of Chinese cuisine's cooking method. Such as stir-frying,deep-frying,quick-frying,slippery-frying,,shallow-frying,braising,boiling,and dip-boiling. Only the cooking way of quick-frying can be divided into sauce-lot way, which means when you quick-fry something it will be put into a lot of sauce,oil-lot way . And also many dessert and many sugar-lot flavor cuisines. these cuisine's cooking method include wire drawing and honey sauce, in addition, the wire and honey all means different kinds' changing state of sugar when we use diverse way to cook it.My home is in the northeast of China . Because of cold climate, northern dishes are relatively oily,and the use of scallion, ginger, garlic tends to be quite popular.Changing falvour may be another main reason.On the table of my hometown,it's usually divided into two parts,which are staple food and cooked food.Cooked food contains soup,wine or beer,hot dishes,and cold dishes.If we eat in a restaurant,Chinese like to eat the dishes while talking or having a drink, and eat the staple food later. the types of staple food have rice,dumplings,noodle, deep fried dough cake,and so on.Among them, the dumpling is the most special troditional food.Dumplings and fish must be eaten on the Chinese New year's Eve. we also eat them in life,because they are delicious.I will show you some pictures and video.I wish you can enjoy them.
