It just so happens that I also recently placed an order for pre-prepared vegetables, which happened to be a promotion for an event with a full price. The people to food for the day, pre-prepared dishes precisely is just a branch of many convenience foods. The reason why it is hot, for one thing, it is easy to cook, all the ingredients with already good. The second is that in the face of the special period of hoarding vegetables, the more convenient ingredients or let a person use the handy.
1, what is a prepared dish.
The first time I heard the name, I thought it was a special dish of some place, know that when I later purchased it, I realized that it is already with the packaging, only left to heat or cook can be served on the table of the convenience of the instant food.
It is usually low-temperature vacuum-packed, which maintains the hygiene and integrity of the ingredients when it is made and packaged in the factory. By putting all the side dishes of a dish already matched, you can go straight to the pot no-wash when it arrives; or microwave it directly after it arrives, and it comes out to be a gourmet meal. Compared to going to the market or supermarket, where you have to pick, wash, cut and prepare vegetables, pre-prepared food is to complete all these processes, and by the time it reaches you, it is a semi-finished product.
2. Advantages and disadvantages of pre-prepared food at special times.
Special period during the epidemic, people go out of the house, and the scope of going out of the house is limited, so the pre-prepared dishes can allow people to enjoy the food at home without having to go to the supermarket or food market. And as opposed to being prepared in a short period of time, pre-prepared dishes allow a person to prepare and store them quickly, and then go directly from the refrigerator to the pot each time they need to use them.
For those who seldom cook on a regular basis, the special period of the epidemic will be limited to instant noodles and other monotonous instant food, and pre-prepared dishes can also make it easy for those kitchen novices to get started. You can try many types of dishes through simple cooking.
But the low temperature and packaging of pre-prepared food also somewhat limits its transportation environment and preservation time. Because it's all processed and packaged, it can only get to the kitchen as fast as it can be processed, and if there are any delays in the delivery process, it's easy for the prepared food to go bad. On the other hand, the dishes are washed and cut, so special attention needs to be paid to hygiene to prevent contamination.
3. When the epidemic is over, prepared food may still have its place.
If the epidemic were to end, I think I would sometimes buy prepared dishes. For one thing, it saves a lot of time, and for some of the dishes that aren't very good, the pre-made dishes make make stir-frying so much easier that I think I'd come in for a single order.
Compared to other fast food, pre-prepared dishes are also one of them, compared to its disadvantages, I think the convenience it brings is something that people can feel directly. It brings deliciousness, and it's also easy and fast.
In short, pre-made dishes are all about making it simple for you to experience the joy of cooking, as well as enjoying the flavor. Of course compared to the increase or decrease in the number of people eating and the number of servings, as well as the specialties of various places and factory assembly operations, pre-cooked dishes still have a long way to go.
After using a prepared dish once, it's true that it's convenient. But sometimes, when I have the time and convenience, I would like to go to the market, buy vegetables and then wash them, wash them and then cook them, and after cooking, enjoy a meal with my family. The process is tiring, but life may be so, busy and happy.
