Although I know nothing about the eight major cuisines, I know a lot about Northeast cuisine, so I still want to talk about it, because Northeast cuisine is more common for ordinary people. Civilization, popularization, easy access to ingredients and easy operation. (For example, "Di San Xian", "Sauerkraut with shredded pork and blood sausage" and "Stewed mushrooms with chicken" are all home-cooked dishes, but they pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables and are rich in nutrition. Rice is a must, and people in Northeast China are quite familiar with what they eat. Unlike southerners who pursue novelty and height, they want to try as long as they can chew and swallow. It is said that some people make soup from aborted stillbirths and eat their young alive. In the eyes of the northeast people, they will spit out the river water at a glance, so they eat many animals and plants to extinction and are on the verge of extinction. The people in Shandong and Henan live a life of penance. If you say it well, you are careful; if you say it badly, you are stingy. This is especially true for others and yourself. They seldom fry a few dishes, boil a pot of wine and treat their short life, but they seem to prefer to abuse themselves, bring disgrace to oneself, cooking rice with boiled water and rolling onions with pancakes. I have never seen or eaten any of the eight major cuisines. I believe that many local ordinary people are proud of the eight major cuisines. Like me, the eight major cuisines seem to be more inclined to those dignitaries with big brains and stomachs. Several ordinary families also have the financial and material resources to ask a chef with several years of cooking experience to cook for themselves. In this crackdown, those dignitaries who used public funds to eat and drink. It is just some poor diaosi who are even more ashamed to talk about the eight major cuisines, risking the cancellation of the subsistence allowance and hanging the eight major cuisines every day. I wonder if I really think I have lived a well-off life. Food is eaten, not blown. It should be based on folk materials, serving the public and enjoying the people. In this respect, Northeast cuisine can be said to be one of the top eight. Why do some foreigners always like to tell Northeast cuisine what to do? If you don't agree, you can not eat it. No matter how beautifully you paint the eight cuisines while rubbing your saliva, it's all in vain if you can't eat them!
There are eight major cuisines in China, and Northeast Cuisine ... Unfortunately, it didn't make the list, but it didn't affect the barbaric growth of Northeast Cuisine at all.
0 1. Stewed mushrooms with chicken, an all-inclusive northeast dish with local genes.
Braised pork belly and Chinese sauerkraut blood sausage
Pot meat
The diet in Northeast China is influenced by North Korea, Russia and Mongolia, and there are many baked foods. Northeast people, especially Liaoning people, have a deep preference for barbecue.
Northeast barbecue
Beef and mutton is the absolute protagonist of barbecue, an important diet in Northeast China.
Northeast roasted beef and mutton
The food culture in Northeast China is also influenced by this period of history.
At that time, millions of soldiers reclaimed the Great Northern Wilderness, and a considerable number of people traveled from Shandong to the east, naturally bringing Shandong's eating habits. Therefore, there is a shadow of Shandong cuisine behind the common northeast dishes, such as meat cake, fresh grinding and smoked sauce.
Smooth part
Fried potatoes, green peppers and eggplant
There are many ethnic minorities living in the northeast, mainly Manchu.
Manchu people like to eat millet, such as millet, barnyard grass and millet. In order to eat these things frequently, Manchu people ground rice into flour, wrapped it in bean paste, steamed it in a drawer, and then frozen it. If they want to eat at any time in the future, they will take it back from the outside and melt it.
So there is a special food in the northeast, sticky bean buns.
sticky bean bun
At that time, Manchu ancestors lived a nomadic life, carrying a large iron pot on horseback. Every time we set up camp, we throw meat and vegetables in a pot and gradually form our own characteristics.
This is the predecessor of northeast stew.
Northeast luandun
02. Not all stews can be called Northeast stews, but they are traditional dishes in Northeast China. To put it bluntly, it is a hodgepodge. Stew beans, potatoes, eggplant, green peppers, tomatoes, fungus and other vegetables with meat until cooked.
The essence of northeast stew lies in the word "chaos" You can stew many dishes that have nothing to do with southerners. take for example
Potatoes, pork and cabbage
Pork belly with Chinese sauerkraut and blood sausage
There are four kinds of stews in Northeast China, pork stewed vermicelli, chicken stewed mushrooms, catfish stewed eggplant and ribs stewed beans.
What is the status of these four stews in the rivers and lakes of Northeast China? This jingle is enough to show that pork stewed vermicelli makes wild wolves howl; Stewed chicken and mushrooms, I don't want to be a husband when I am full; Braised eggplant with catfish, supporting the old man to death; Stewed beans with ribs, nowhere to be found.
Northeast sidun
However, not all stews can be called northeast stews.
Northeast stew is not equal to northeast stew, most of which are matched together, one meat and one vegetable. Northeast stew is a multi-ingredient stew, that is, different ingredients are used in different seasons, and about a dozen ingredients are stewed together.
There are two kinds of stews in Northeast China: soup and miso soup. Clear soup can be drunk, but miso soup is similar to rape, but it can also be drunk. It is salty.
When it comes to stew, it is actually not a serious dish in the northeast. The original so-called chaotic stew is to stew the leftovers together in order not to waste food. Northeasters don't give stew to guests, and a good-looking Northeastern can't afford to lose that person.
No matter whether it is northeast stew or northeast stew, there is no need for any complicated craft. Simply chop vegetables and meat, push them into the pot, simmer them on the shelf, and serve them without delicate utensils. Put the stewed vegetables in a small iron pot, iron basin or large bowl.
Look at this stew, and then look at the amount of food, all show the enthusiasm and benefits of the northeast people. Don't worry about not having enough to eat northeast stew. You can eat it in a big bowl. In Northeast dialect, it is-
There is also a stew called pot-stewed food in the northeast. It feels like a "firewood stove", using a large iron pot to burn firewood.
fricassee
Stews have always been a hard dish in the northeast. Red roast goose, braised fish, braised chicken legs in iron pan, and then posted a circle of pot stickers. ...
When it comes to pot stickers, it means sticking tortillas on an iron pot, which is also a special peasant flavor with northeast characteristics.
Sticking pot stickers is also a very fun thing. When pasting, beat the dough with both hands to make it palm-shaped, and with a bang, a cake is firmly attached to the pot.
Northeast fried dumpling
03. A monster in the northeast, if he doesn't eat fresh vegetables and sauerkraut, he says it's sauerkraut in the northeast. In Northeast dialect, it is-
Pickled sauerkraut is the crystallization of wisdom of the northeast people in order to solve the problem of eating vegetables in winter when materials are scarce. Nowadays, sauerkraut has become a dietary symbol of the northeast people. As the saying goes, "A big monster in Northeast China doesn't eat fresh vegetables but sauerkraut".
Stewed vermicelli with Chinese sauerkraut and pork
This dish is what many homeless people want to eat most when they get home! A bite of sauerkraut, a bite of meat, soup and rice noodles are simply people! Between! Very! Products!
Pickled pork intestines
Sauerkraut is refreshing and greasy, removing intestinal oil and relieving appetite.
Stewed frozen tofu with sauerkraut
Frozen tofu is also a hard currency in northeast dishes, and almost all stews can be added, especially sauerkraut.
Pork and Chinese sauerkraut jiaozi
Southerners regard jiaozi as a snack, just a snack on the table, while northerners regard jiaozi as a staple food. To say that jiaozi, the favorite of the northeast folks, is of course pickled cabbage with meat stuffing.
Its unique flavor and taste are unmatched by ordinary vegetables. Simply mix a stuffing, no need to put more seasoning, and it tastes sour and refreshing.
How delicious is Northeast Chinese sauerkraut? Even emperor Qianlong likes it. According to folklore, when Qianlong traveled eastward to Shengjing, he was full of praise for pickled cabbage and white meat.
04. Why is Northeast cuisine so big? Why is Northeast cuisine so big? The major reasons for this are the following
The cold is the north, and the forest is snow. The coldest time in the northeast is MINUS 30 degrees, which is unimaginable cold for southerners. It is natural to eat more high-calorie food to warm up when it is cold. If you trudge through the ice and snow for an hour and then come home, you will instantly realize the true essence of food-the fuel of our bodies.
You think, the stew in the cauldron is served steaming, and when it is eaten in the mouth, it suddenly supplements the body with heat, so that the stew in the cauldron will not be cold soon. Even if you eat a little longer, the food is still warm enough.
It is also because of the cold that people become lazy. Anyway, they want to cook, simple stew.
No matter stew, sauerkraut, barbecue, or meat cake, fresh ground, pot-wrapped meat, the diet in Northeast China is characterized by simplicity, directness and enthusiasm.
This feature is attributed to the spirit and temperament of the Northeast people. Early cold land development and fighting against the harsh environment have created the generous temperament of the Northeast people.
In the northeast, you can often see a table of people around several steaming stews, chopsticks dancing, laughing and cursing loudly, glasses hitting the mountain, and sweat on your oily face. Laughing and cursing when eating fast, full of energy. In the eyes of people from other places, this scene is simply a "bandit."
So the northeast cuisine is Jianghu cuisine.
Jianghu is always declining, but fortunately, we still have delicious food, which can soothe the pleasure, kindness and hatred of Jianghu children in that black land.
In fact, the topic is wrong! Northeast cuisine belongs to a branch of Shandong cuisine in the eight major cuisines, and it can also be said that Shandong cuisine is the most influential and edifying. Because of the unique geographical location, different general resources and special dishes in Northeast China, it can be said that although it originated from Shandong cuisine, it is a school of its own!
One of the reasons why Northeast cuisine is world-famous is the uniqueness of ingredients.
A cuisine can be recognized by the public, and there must be ingredients that the public likes. Because of its unique geographical location, the Northeast is rich in too many delicious foods, which are basically unique to the Northeast and not found in other regions.
For example, all kinds of wild vegetables, mushrooms and river fish are basically northeast specialties, and most of them are original ecology, green and natural! Today, healthy eating has become a trend, so it is not surprising that this point is sought after and welcomed!
Second, historical reasons.
As we all know, the last feudal dynasty in China, the Manchu Dynasty, started from the "Baishan Blackwater" in the northeast, and after the Manchu entered the customs. Naturally, he brought his eating habits to the Central Plains, which gave birth to the peak of Chinese food-Manchu-Chinese banquet.
Many ingredients of the Manchu-Han banquet are taken from the northeast, or it is impossible to make a Manchu-Han banquet without the ingredients of the northeast specialty. Then, as the native lettuce line in Northeast China, it should be famous all over the world by the light of the Manchu-Han banquet!
Third, cooking methods.
Northeast cuisine pays more attention to "original flavor" and highlights the main ingredients, which is one of the main characteristics of Northeast cuisine.
Because most northeast dishes are stewed, the ingredients are "soft and rotten" and "crisp but not broken", the seasonings are mainly soy sauce and sugar, and the finished dishes are mainly salty and fresh. This is more suitable for the public taste, and it can be said to be "Xian Yi for all ages".
So I think it's strange that Northeast cuisine is not famous all over the world because of its unique ingredients, rich variety of dishes, suitable cooking taste for the public and large amount of benefits! In fact, Northeast cuisine and Shandong cuisine belong to the same department, because most people in Northeast China are originally from Shandong, so Shandong cuisine should be summarized. Shandong cuisine is particularly popular in the north.
The eight major cuisines are limited to the era of sending messages, relying on post stations and going out to ride horses. Even the emperor will go to Jiangnan 10 for half a day, and it is a one-way trip. I'm not sure how long it will take to get back and forth in the storm.
In the era of underdeveloped transportation. People are confined to where they live. Eat the mountain by the mountain, eat the sea by the sea. Live a self-sufficient life. There is no access to the outside world. Not to mention the failure of eating out. Even the master in the tavern passed on his skills from mouth to mouth in his own small circle.
The original origins of the eight major cuisines are "exquisite and well-informed" by dignitaries, salt merchants or princes from all over the country.
Northeast cuisine 1: resources: the development of northeast cuisine can be traced back to the local climate and rich product resources.

2. Geography: Northeast China is inhabited by ethnic minorities. There are 10 ethnic minorities here, such as Manchu, Oroqen, Korean, Xibe and so on, bordering Russia = North Korea. There are many Russian elements in Harbin's current recipes. Moreover, in the tide of new China going to the countryside, the legendary delicacies from all over the country are also integrated into the black land of Northeast China.
3. Popular articles: Northeasters are generous and quick-talking, and have developed a simple character of loving to talk and communicating. In the exchange of chefs, there must be a teacher who can be a threesome. Teach with your heart and learn with an open mind. Therefore, northeast cuisine can be said to be the best of all.
Why is Northeast Cuisine World-renowned? The legendary daily speed of 800 Li (800/24=33) is unimaginable for the minimum speed limit of 80 km/h of modern expressways. Although the somersault cloud written by Wu Lao cannot be realized. But walking around in the clouds is not difficult. Convenient transportation. The development of logistics makes the population flow reach an unprecedented peak. The migration of population stimulated the change of eating habits. Let the boundaries of a big cuisine become more and more blurred.
Northeasters are generous and lively. Love party. I like to drink a little wine to enhance my feelings when I'm free. Class reunion. Gay parties, birthday parties ... the habit of drinking three meals a day has greatly promoted the development of the catering industry. This may be the most important reason why Northeast cuisine can quickly become famous all over the world! ! !
Don't say so many things. The reason why Northeast cuisine is spread all over the world is mainly because people from the Northeast are spread all over the world. Every local food has its own characteristics, and the northeast people have popularized it!
Although the northeast cuisine is not among the eight major cuisines, many of them are imperial cuisines. Northeast China used to be a wild land, but the land is fertile, the products are rich, the quality is excellent, there are many ethnic minorities, and there are also many fish unique to Heilongjiang.
Northeast China is rich in wild resources, such as ginseng, velvet antler, bear's paw, cold nose, mandarin fish and so on.
Longfei soup, Hanbi Lake, Siniperca chuatsi and Rana papaya in Daxing 'anling are all excellent ingredients and dishes.
Northeast cuisine belongs to Shandong cuisine.
