What do you think is the greatest invention in the world? Is it a light bulb, a gramophone, a computer, or an electric blanket? But in the eyes of foodies, it is of course the hybrid rice invented by Grandpa Yuan Longping! He has greatly increased my country's rice production and will also help solve the problem of world hunger in the future.

But for the same bowl of rice, some people will make it into fried rice, some people will cook it into porridge, some people will eat it as rice bowl, and some people will eat it as baked rice.

Different countries also have their preferred ways of eating rice. Next, let’s take a look at how Korea, Japan and China eat rice!

1. South Korea

In South Korea, in addition to barbecue and fried chicken, many people also like to eat Korean rice balls. The biggest feature of Korean rice balls is the filling inside. You don’t need to guess that it is delicious kimchi.

Every time there is leftover rice, the foodie will be lazy and make rice balls. Add an appropriate amount of sesame oil and sesame seeds to the rice, mix evenly with a spoon, and add some salt to taste, then tear off a large piece of plastic wrap and spread it on the table, spread the mixed rice on it, press it with a spoon, and try to make the rice Stick them together and put the sour and spicy Korean kimchi in the middle. Don't be greedy and put too much, otherwise it will be too salty. Finally, pick up the corners of the plastic wrap and let the rice come together to wrap the kimchi completely. A big rice ball is completed!

Of course, in addition to the most classic kimchi, you can also add various vegetables, meat floss, etc. You can eat whatever you want, and a rice ball can be worth a meal.

2. Japan

There is no doubt that Japanese people pay attention to small but refined meals. Sushi is a typical food made with rice. It is said that doctors in Kyoto at that time soaked various seafood in vinegar overnight and ate it with rice balls. In our opinion, this was an attempt to preserve food at that time. Slowly, this gave rise to a series of sushi delicacies.

Nowadays, we can taste a wide variety of sushi, including hand-rolled sushi, hand-held sushi, salmon-filled sushi, caviar-filled sushi, etc. In addition to rice, making sushi also requires seaweed and sushi vinegar. Of course, there are a small number of people who are not used to eating this type of food.

3. China

For a country with a population of 1.4 billion, the same bowl of rice can be eaten in 1.4 billion different ways. When I was a child in the countryside, I loved eating big pot rice the most. The rice cooked in the iron pot was very fragrant, especially the layer of crispy rice cakes stuck to the bottom of the pot. As soon as I shoveled it up, the children rushed for it.

Later, some people directly stuck the remaining rice on the bottom of the pot, heated it over charcoal fire, and baked it until it was fragrant and crispy, or directly rolled it into thin rice cakes, cut it into small pieces and then added oil. Deep-fry in the pot until crispy, sprinkle with some salt and chili powder, and it becomes a popular snack.
