Because Beijing cuisine is a kind of cuisine that combines the advantages of all the major cuisines, it is said that it is a kind of cuisine that is formed after collecting the strengths of a hundred schools and taking its essence, but it has not formed a unique flavor of its own, so it has not been able to enter the eight major cuisines. Those who can enter one of the eight major cuisines must form their own school, have their own unique cooking style and special taste, and be recognized by the public. Therefore, Beijing cuisine without its own characteristics is out of the eight major cuisines. In the early days of Beijing, many chefs in hotels were from Shandong, and Shandong cuisine, one of the eight major cuisines, was famous, so Shandong cuisine occupied a place in Beijing. It was also because many officials or wealthy families, mostly from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, brought Zhejiang cuisine. Because it is the seat of the court, there are also court dishes. There are fewer locals in Beijing, and more foreigners come to Beijing, which also brings the food culture of their respective hometowns. Therefore, the styles of many cuisines blend together, forming Beijing cuisine without its own unique style. We all know that the most famous Beijing cuisine is Beijing Roast Duck, as well as Zhajiang Noodles and instant-boiled mutton. In fact, the roast duck was originally called Nanjing salted duck. It was Zhu Di, the Ming emperor, who brought Nanjing salted duck to Beijing and then flowed out of the court. The folk became the first roast duck restaurant in Beijing, and then Beijing roast duck gradually became a characteristic signboard in Beijing. There are other special dishes in Beijing, such as shredded pork with Beijing sauce, Fushou elbow, Four Joy Meetballs and so on. However, although these dishes are famous, they are not enough to form a distinctive cuisine of their own. There are many varieties of Beijing cuisine, and many cooking methods are also gathered in the production methods. In the final analysis, Beijing cuisine has all kinds of flavors, and there is a street of food everywhere for people to choose from. It has absorbed the essence of major cuisines, but it has no unique style, which may be the reason why Beijing cuisine has not become one of the eight major cuisines.
