What is the food culture in Japan?
Japanese food (Japanese food, にほんりょぅり) is a kind of food that can be tasted by the eyes, and it is very particular about plates. You can choose different tableware (food container, しよつぎ) according to the kind of food. Japanese food pays attention not only to taste, but also to color. Petals, leaves or stems of various flowers or seasonal vegetables are often decorated around food. Generally speaking, kanto region (centered on Tokyo) has a strong flavor, while Kansai (centered on Osaka and Kyoto) has a weak flavor. Japanese people often infiltrate Japanese flavor into Chinese food (Chinese food) and western food (western food), which is the so-called "gentle wind".

The dining forms of Japanese cuisine are generally divided into fixed food (てぃしょく), Dangdang (ぺんとぅ) and banquet dishes. Of course, you can also order food. A fixed meal is a meal, usually at noon. Fixed foods include rice, pickles, miso soup or clear soup, and other vegetables and meat can be added with the price. Instant lunch boxes are painted wooden products, which are divided into four squares and five squares. A vegetable and a corresponding rice ball can be placed in each compartment, and sesame seeds are usually placed on the rice ball, and some of them are wrapped with seaweed (kelp, こんぶ). Banquet cooking is a set meal customized according to different seasons, and many of them are called "Sakura", "Pine", "Bamboo" and "Plum". At the banquet, the Japanese pay attention to dining etiquette, that is, eat quietly, without making any noise or talking. Don't spill rice, vegetables, wine, etc. Don't dirty the table. Don't put fish bones and bones in the tableware, but put them on the table.

The Japanese celebrate China New Year in the first month, which is the Gregorian calendar year. The first day of New Year's Day is the first day of New Year's Day, and the thirtieth day refers to the day before the first day of New Year's Day. The dinner on New Year's Eve is not very rich, but to eat "Nian Yue そば" (a kind of noodles made in Qiao Mai), every family must drink "Tu Su" on the morning of New Year's Day, and then have New Year's Eve dinner. Abundant New Year's dishes generally include dishes with auspicious meanings, such as "a few eggs" (herring eggs), "black beans" and "dried fish", which indicate people's prosperity and good health. On the "Three Congratulations Day" of the first month (the first three days), we should have "mixed cooked" rice cake soup for breakfast. "Miscellaneous cooking" varies from place to place, but the most basic material is rice cake. After breakfast, women will go to the temple to worship. Some pine branches are also inserted at the door of every household, called "door pine", which means to celebrate the New Year.
