How do Japanese eat rice?
The way Japanese eat rice, some of which are strange to China people. Beat a raw egg on hot rice and add a few drops of soy sauce to stir. This is a traditional Japanese breakfast. For example, beat a raw egg on hot rice and add a few drops of soy sauce to stir. Recently, it has been improved: first freeze the eggs for one day, then thaw them at room temperature for one hour, beat them on hot rice, and add green peppers and soy sauce. It is said that the whole raw egg yolk tastes like pudding when it is sent into the mouth. In addition, there are raw eggs with cheese or mayonnaise-this "east-west combination" is very popular among Japanese young people now. Tea-soaked rice dinner, or midnight snack, is often "tea-soaked rice"-that is, pouring hot tea on rice. When a drunken husband comes home, the wife who keeps vigil often quickly brings out a bowl of tea soaked rice to relieve her husband's hangover. The simplest thing is to add a sour plum soup or a little pickled fish seeds, plus a pinch of horseradish (often mistaken for "green mustard" in China) and a dish of kimchi. Tea soaked rice is generally characterized by vegetarian food. It is said that the senior official in Heian period (794- 1 185) was overweight, and the doctor advised him to drink more tea and soak in rice to lose weight. However, according to research, he was actually asked to eat "soaked rice"-hot water in winter and cold water in summer. When I make my own tea-soaked rice, I often save everything-I heat the leftovers in the microwave, pour the green tea brought from China, find one or two leftovers in the refrigerator and eat them. What I like best is not chewing rice, but the wonderful mixture of rice fragrance and tea fragrance when hot tea is poured on rice. In fact, there are many kinds of tea-soaked rice, and they are also very particular. High-grade tea-soaked rice cooked at home or in stores can be added with many seasonings: laver, kelp, natto, onion, sesame, clover (wild hollyhock) and so on. If the main ingredient is sashimi, it is generally snapper (Cargill) mixed with sesame sauce. Tuna is more advanced. A bowl of "super tuna tea soaked rice" in a restaurant costs 8000 yen. Now there are fried pork chops and tea soaked rice. It's hard to imagine what it tastes like. When the writer Sen Ou was studying in Germany, he saw bacteria with a microscope and became addicted to cleanliness. When eating Japanese dim sum (steamed bread), you must break it into four pieces, put it on rice and pour hot tea on it. So it's called steamed bread to make tea. There is a common mixed seasoning "seven flavors" in Japan. As the name implies, it is synthesized from seven condiments. But there are actually more than seven kinds, such as mustard seed, dried tangerine peel, sesame, pepper, hemp seed, perilla, dried laver, fresh laver, ginger and rape. Grinding into powder, you can sprinkle it on rice, add some boiled burdock or marinate kelp. It is said that fried peanuts will taste better. At present, spicy oil is popular in Japan. You don't dip anything in spicy oil, but pour it on rice, so it's called "spicy oil to eat". Perhaps inspired by the "seven flavors", this spicy oil is not simply fried with dried peppers, but added with a lot of ingredients. Basically, there are shrimp, Chili powder, white sesame, bitter Chili sauce on the Korean peninsula, soy sauce, sugar, fried garlic, fried onion and so on. Other things depend on different people. Seasoning manufacturers have broken their heads and launched their own unique spicy oil to compete for the market. And mortals also have their own ingenious ways to find some rare materials to add spicy oil. For example, Niigata, Japan, has a vegetable similar to persimmon pepper, which is called "Shenle Nanman". It is spicy, but it is a kind of pepper. In addition, there are people who work hard in production. If garlic and onion are heated in the electric oven for 30 minutes before frying, it can increase the crispy taste. These homemade "spicy oils" are even called "spicy oil XO". Nowadays, among film and television artists, eating white rice is a fashion. Probably tired of the box lunch provided by the TV station. Some people bring rice and rice cookers to the dressing room, and once cooked, it is the amount of one day. Or add "seven flavors", or mix with mayonnaise and soy sauce, or make rice balls and wrap them with seaweed.
