There are great differences between the south and the north, which are not only reflected in geographical and cultural differences, but also more directly and widely recognized are the dietary differences between the north and the south. The staple food in the north is mainly noodles and flour, and the portions are larger, while the staple food in the south is mainly rice. The food in the South is generally more refined, so how to retain the nutrition of the food while being exquisite? To retain the nutrients of food, we must cook it in the simplest and most traditional ways. Let us first roughly divide food into two categories, one is vegetarian food and the other is meat food. For vegetarian dishes that don’t taste very good but have high nutritional value, such as fenugreek root, they are rich in vitamins and beneficial elements that are ahead of many vegetables. Smart southerners found ways to eat it cold and pickled. They washed the roots and cut them into small pieces to make it easier to taste. They then used vinegar, chili, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt and sugar to cover the roots to cover up the fishy smell. And there is no heating during the process, which retains the original nutrition of the folded ears.

The simple and convenient operation is also accepted by the public. The range of cold and pickled dishes is very wide, including but not limited to various materials. Especially pickling, although some nutrients may be lost during the pickling and fermentation of food, unique nutrients, amino acids, can also be absorbed by the human body and beneficial elements can maintain the health of our body. Next, we will introduce boiling and stewing. The biggest difference between boiling and stewing is the length of cooking time. Put all kinds of ingredients into the pot one by one, and add an appropriate amount of water and cooking oil. Bring to a boil over high heat and add salt, chicken essence, light soy sauce and other seasonings. Then squat for two minutes to let the ingredients taste. It is simple, delicious and rich. The nutritious cooking is complete. For stewing, you put the ingredients in order and add cold water, then bring it to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for more than 30 minutes, then add appropriate salt, oil, chicken essence and light soy sauce to get it out of the pot. The dish produced in this way is not only simple, convenient, but also safe. , while also retaining the deliciousness of the food.

The biggest advantage of this type of cooking method is that it does not add too much vegetable oil and animal fat, is very light, and uses the simplest method to cook the most high-end delicious food.
