Why can't foreigners eat real Chinese food?

Nowadays, you may not be able to eat any real Chinese food. It is basically a combination of Chinese and Western food.

Chinese cuisine has a long history. Chinese cuisine pays attention to both color, flavor and flavor to be an authentic Chinese dish.

In fact, not only foreigners cannot eat authentic Chinese food, but even the Chinese themselves cannot eat it.

A long time ago, our chefs paid attention to retaining the original flavor of the dishes when cooking, and did not add too many seasonings. Basically, they relied on the flavors of the food to blend and stimulate each other.

For example, if you want to make a dish very fresh, you can add oil boiled from animals to make the ingredients more flavorful.

Maybe the dishes in the past were not as varied and flavorful as modern dishes, but we felt safe in what we ate and it was indeed very healthy.

Although modern dishes are richer in taste, they mask the original taste of the ingredients. Multiple additives make the dishes brighter and more fragrant, but they are not good for our health. When MSG first came out, many people used it.

Gradually, some people discovered that MSG was bad for the body, and then began to use chicken essence.

The emergence of more and more seasonings has made cooking more and more convenient for us. People who don’t know how to cook can still cook delicious dishes as long as they know how to add seasonings, because these dishes are made with seasonings.

We can also find that real chefs actually use very little seasoning.

People who have watched A Bite of China will find that many masters there insist on retaining the original taste of the ingredients when cooking.

But now we can no longer accept dishes without seasonings.

I think that maybe there is no real Chinese food. With the integration of cultures, our Chinese food will tend to be more Westernized. By then, it will probably just be a plate of Western-style Chinese food.
