People in China say that the non-staple food is simply vegetables, while the staple food is rice. The topic of vegetables VS rice involves the whole diet, and the scope is too wide. I mean vegetables here, rice is rice, and I don't mean vegetable rice, vegetable bibimbap, and rice covered with rice. Those are other issues I want to talk about. I only talk about fried rice with local vegetables, boiled rice with vegetables and rice with vegetables at home. When watching sports ball games, VS is often used to indicate the opposing sides. For example, Lakers VS Pistons, VS is the abbreviation of VERSUS in English, which means "confrontation". This is a pair of difficult and inseparable enemies. Let me borrow it here. I wonder if I can express my feelings.
When my family is having a reunion or a banquet in a restaurant, when the waiter finally asks what the staple food is, traditionally, we all want vegetarian fried rice with small vegetables instead of the standard "Yangzhou fried rice" with shrimp, eggs and ham. Yangzhou fried rice is usually eaten well, and foreigners are even more full of praise. After the banquet, it feels too greasy. Meiling eats fried rice with chopped green vegetables or chrysanthemum morifolium, and there is not much oil. Stir-fry the rice with strong fire, one grain at a time, mix with chopped green vegetables, and serve it in white and green, like pearls with jade. The aroma is attractive and refreshing. Even if you are full, you will eat two spoons, which is absolutely difficult to make at home.
If the food is salty and thirsty, it is required to serve hot rice. Some people call it pickled rice or pickled rice in vegetable soup, that is, a bowl of rice is added to the light fresh and tender vegetable soup, which is more refreshing, and there is little oil and salt in it. Yangzhou chefs know the needs and tastes of customers very well, and this is the best.
Dish-and-rice is a special "fast food" in Yangzhou people's homes. In the evening, anyone who goes out on business can't wait until the food is ready to eat. Generally, people have fried vegetables left at noon, put a bowl of rice in the rice cooker, heat it in the pot, and scatter the rice balls with a spatula while heating. The beauty lies in the word "Ta". The rice is scattered, and the food is mixed and hot. It won't take a few minutes to add it, and after eating it, I will go out to do business. With the microwave oven, it is more convenient. Just pour the leftovers and leftovers at noon into a heat-resistant fresh-keeping box and turn it inside for a few minutes.
This hot dish is often eaten by people with small population, which is both convenient and hot. If there is no leftovers, you can also use fresh vegetables to cook now. When the vegetables are fried to 8% or 9% maturity, put the rice into the pot and add some salt when you take it out. Green vegetables and clear rice are more delicious and attractive than the leftover fried vegetables, and the food is available. If you put a full three-red bowl, you need to add half a bowl if the young people are not enough. If there is no high-quality "Yangzhou Green", it is impossible to make this delicious food. I've been halfway around China, and I've never seen this way of eating anywhere else. Yangzhou people are so lucky!
