I have a friend who works in Hong Kong. Because his unit is far from home, he belongs to a typical ordinary office worker. His breakfast is usually bread, milk, soybean milk and other automatic and faster foods (drinking morning tea on weekdays is almost all the welfare of the rich or the elderly), and he often eats it while walking on the road. In his words, waiting for the bus is his breakfast time. At noon, some girls in the unit bring their own cooked meals and put them in the microwave oven of the unit as soon as they are hot (the meals were prepared when cooking dinner yesterday. Put it in the refrigerator before eating, take it back to the company refrigerator the next day, and take it out for heating at noon. Some of them are cooked in the morning and then taken to the company refrigerator for lunch. Some simply buy a sandwich and make a cup of scented tea for Chinese food; Some of them went downstairs to eat fast food. Generally, there are many roasted meats in Guangdong, and barbecued pork, pork knuckle rice, roast duck and roasted goose are estimated to be the most popular. First, Guangdong roasted meat is served faster, and second, it will not go bad even if it is packaged back to the unit. Many times, when they are having lunch, the company suddenly sends a task, and you have to go back with a phone call. At this time, you have to eat or pack the unfinished food, so Guangdong roasted meat will have more advantages in convenience than cooking. After all, packaging and heating will not affect the taste, and you can still eat it while it is hot. Some companies with good welfare will have a tea time around 3: 30. Even if you don't eat well at noon, you can eat something to replenish your energy, otherwise it will be very hard to get off work.
For supper, they often buy it and cook it at home. Generally, Cantonese cuisine is the main food, because the cost of eating out in Hong Kong is really high. If they buy food and cook by themselves, it is actually similar to the consumption in Shenzhen. It is often said that Hong Kong people are smart enough. In fact, in this era when prices are above everything else, if you don't scrimp, you will find that the monthly expenditure is not a small sum.
Hongkong is located in the southeast of China, near Guangdong Province. Since Hong Kong was once a part of Guangdong, Guangdong culture (also known as Lingnan culture) is closely related to Hong Kong. For example, Cantonese is the mother tongue of Hong Kong people.
Everyone knows that Cantonese people eat the best, so Cantonese cuisine has always been one of our favorite cuisines. Roasting bacon, also known as barbecue, mainly cooks meat by pickling and baking. Barbecued pork, roasted meat, roasted goose and suckling pig are all barbecue foods. Restaurants, restaurants and even fast food restaurants are common in Guangdong and Hong Kong. The main barbecues are:
1- barbecued pork: pork is put on a fork and cooked with charcoal fire, so it is called "barbecued pork", among which "half fat and half lean barbecued pork" is the best.
2- roast suckling pig: suckling pig is a piglet that is not weaned. Barbecue with fire, crispy skin and tender meat. Most shops selling roasted meat usually sell roasted meat, but suckling pigs are not always available. Usually, the original roast suckling pig can only be eaten after important festivals.
3- Roast pig: The method of making roast pig is basically the same as that of roast suckling pig. The roast meat in Guangdong is the rib part of roast pig, also called "roasted gizzard". Among them, crispy skin and tender meat are the best.
4- Roasted Goose: Roasted with charcoal fire at high temperature, with crisp and shiny skin, usually served with sweet and sour sauce. Among them, the roast goose in Sham Tseng, New Territories is the most famous in Hong Kong.
5- Roasted duck: There is no difference between roast duck and roasted goose in the production method, but due to cost and other reasons, some restaurants use ducks instead of geese, but in fact, Cantonese people don't like roast duck very much, and they still think roasted goose is the best.
As for pig's feet, Cantonese people like to eat bittern pig's feet or ginger vinegar pig's feet ginger (which is one of the supplements for women to confinement, and the baby will send pig's feet ginger to relatives and friends at the full moon), but the pig's feet in the Pearl River Delta and Hong Kong have less rice …
In restaurants in Guangdong and Hong Kong, cooked rice is often sold with rice, which is called "cooked rice", "roasted rice" and even "four treasures rice". Indeed, these are all fast foods that workers often eat. However, ordinary families don't eat barbecue every day. They usually buy them when there are festivals or even when they don't have time to cook. Unlike everyone's impression, Cantonese and Hong Kong people eat barbecue every day.
Roasted goose rice, too expensive, costs more than 50 60 yuan, which loses the meaning of fast food box lunch, and it is not the lunch of ordinary wage earners, office workers and urban white-collar workers! They all ate something else, such as roast duck rice, a small portion of roast duck, a few green leafy vegetables, a bowl of white rice and a bowl of soup, which cost only 20 25 yuan. Because the goose is too expensive now, and the cost of roast goose rice is too high, most people can't afford it. It's not cost-effective, and they generally don't choose fast food at noon. Merchants can't sell it, so that now you can't sell roast goose rice or buy roast goose rice in ordinary fast food restaurants and Chinese restaurants in Shenzhen and Hong Kong.
Yes, in fact, the culture of Hong Kong and Guangdong is basically the same, but it was later colonized, and Hong Kong has more British culture! However, even after being colonized, the food culture remained the same. Ordinary three meals, not only roast goose, roast duck, roast pig, but also boiled chicken, steamed fish and so on, mainly Cantonese cuisine. Everyone likes soup, but the price in Hong Kong is too high! Have a chance to come to Guangdong, try Cantonese cuisine series, and then go to Hong Kong. It's close anyway. Eat in Hong Kong, and you will find that everything is the same.
Unlike ordinary sandwich class citizens in Hong Kong, they have a fast pace of life, heavy work pressure, a bad living environment and a strong sense of time. It is a kind of happiness for working people to want to eat a hot meal. For breakfast, they eat bread and suck soy milk, and they have to run all the way to catch the bus to rework. Eating a roast duck and barbecued rice for lunch is also happy. A better lunch, nearly a hundred pieces of paper, many migrant workers are also under pressure. Of course, some young people eat fast food, most of them bring their own meals, but some of them cook all night in the morning and then have another meal in an insulated lunch box at noon. Dinner is also bought for several days at a time, and then cooked in the refrigerator. Red wine, champagne, people, cars and food are one of the lifestyles. Ordinary Hong Kong citizens want to eat a boiled chicken.
Barbecued pork, roast duck and roast goose are what we Cantonese often say about roasted meat. Cantonese and Hong Kong people like it, and they don't eat three meals often. First, there are too many food choices in Guangdong. Second, we all think that eating more barbecue is bad for our health, and we can only eat it occasionally. Ps: No one will have barbecue for breakfast.
In Hong Kong, where the pace of life is high (in fact, Guangzhou is similar), roasted meat rice is very suitable for office workers or singles. First, the packaging speed is fast, which greatly saves time; Secondly, salty taste is delicious, really delicious. It is definitely a good choice for a tired person. Humans naturally like things with high fat and high protein. Third, restaurants in Hong Kong are expensive, and cooking for 20-30 yuan is really affordable.
Let's talk about pork knuckle rice. In fact, Guangdong is a region with diverse cultures, and Guangfu people (Cantonese) cannot fully represent Guangdong. The pig's foot rice you mentioned should be Longjiang pig's foot rice in Chaoshan. This is rare in fast food restaurants in Hong Kong, but it exists in some trendy restaurants. Firstly, it has a high fat content. Secondly, the cost of making it in Hong Kong is much higher.
The ordinary meals of Hong Kong people are different from those of Guangdong people. Hong Kong people not only eat roasted rice, but also other delicacies.
Besides Chinese dim sum, Hong Kong people also eat western food for breakfast. Generally, there are egg noodles, beef noodles with sand tea, shredded pork noodles with cabbage, diced pork noodles with spiced meat and so on. Sausage and eggs, and even fried noodles and porridge.
Hong Kong people can choose fast food, special food, ordinary food and barbecue food for lunch. You can eat noodle porridge outside, as well as all kinds of delicious food from all over the world.
Hong Kong people have a sumptuous dinner. After a hard day's work, I will go home to eat a better meal at night and treat my stomach well. Soup and seafood are indispensable. Fish, shrimps and crabs in the market are not particularly expensive. For the sake of family nutrition, housewives will cook delicious home-cooked dishes, and baked ones will occasionally become added dishes.
Hong Kong people pay more attention to healthy eating. Barbecue food is one of the unhealthy foods, with high fat and sodium content, which will increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease. Trotters also contain a lot of fat.
Shao Wei and pot-stewed (trotters) are both processed foods. After high-temperature barbecue in Shao Wei, it is easy to produce carcinogens, and after boiling, it is easy to produce bacteria when it is cold.
Everyone should eat less barbecue and braised dishes, and eat some healthy food, such as steamed and stewed food, fruits and vegetables.
Three meals a day, every place and every family is different, as long as it is based on the dishes you and your family like to eat. Nutrition and health are also important considerations.
Every country has its own national anthem series.
Cantonese cuisine, including Fengcheng cuisine, Chaozhou cuisine and Hakka cuisine, is generally not mixed together. Shao Wei is Fengcheng cuisine, usually eaten in fast food for lunch, and chopped materials for dinner, which are also used as the head basin for big meals, such as Shao Wei platter or roast suckling pig. There are barbecue shops everywhere in Hong Kong. Pig's foot rice is a Chaozhou dish, which is often eaten in street restaurants in Chaoshan area, but rarely seen in major streets such as Hong Kong and Guangzhou. It should not be confused.
These, called roasted meat in Guangdong, are delicious and loved by everyone. Because Guangdong roast meat is all over the street, it is ready-made, and there are many people who are busy with work and often work overtime. So buying some roasted meat after work, cooking at home and making a green vegetable can solve the problem of eating, so it has become the first choice for many people, but three meals a day is different.
