When it comes to Sichuan cuisine, I believe that most people think of heavy oil and spicy flavor. In fact, Sichuan cuisine can be divided into three major systems: Shanghe Gang, Xiaohe Gang and Xiahe Gang. Shanghe Gang is centered on Chengdu official cuisine and Leshan cuisine, and the cuisine of Shanghe Gang is relatively lighter and milder. Counting down, in fact, at least half of Sichuan cuisine is not spicy, is it very unexpected?

Some delicious but not spicy dishes in Sichuan cuisine are boiled cabbage.

This dish is famous enough to be a ceiling-level dish among all soups. It is not spicy at all. Boiled cabbage originated in the Qing Dynasty, and now it is one of the top ten classic dishes in Sichuan, and it is also a fine dish at the state banquet. This dish looks unpretentious, but in fact it shows excellent soup-making skills, which can definitely be said to be superior to the ceiling of ordinary soup. This dish can't be eaten in an ordinary Sichuan restaurant, because it looks extremely simple, but it is actually very complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is also very challenging and unskilled. I believe that most Sichuanese have never eaten authentic boiled cabbage.

sweet white

This is also a delicious but not spicy dish. Sweet boiled white is one of the traditional famous dishes in Sichuan, and it is also one of the nine bowls in Sichuan. It also has the name of "Jiasha Meat", which is a dish with pork belly, glutinous rice and bean paste as the main ingredients. It is mainly steamed, and its color is red and bright after serving, and it tastes fresh, sweet, waxy, fat and not greasy. It is a delicious dish with good color, fragrance and taste, and is deeply loved by local people.

Dongpo Pig Knuckle

Dongpo elbow has nothing to do with spicy food, and it's delicious. Perhaps many people will think that it's not Sichuan food, but Dongpo elbow is one of the nine famous Sichuan dishes, using the elbow of Meishan, Sichuan. After cooking, the pork skin is crispy, the pork is soft but not rotten, and it's really super delicious with Dashan snow beans.

Chicken tofu pudding

This is also a dish that is not spicy at all. Chicken tofu pudding, which has a history of more than a hundred years, is also one of the top ten classic dishes in Sichuan. This dish pays attention to "eat chicken but not chicken, eat meat but not meat", and makes the meat dish look like a vegetarian dish, which looks like tofu pudding, but it is not tofu pudding at all. Because this dish tests the chef's skill, it is usually eaten in an authentic Sichuan restaurant.

Stewed Jiangtuan Fish

Steamed Jiangtuan is one of the traditional famous dishes in Leshan, Sichuan, and also one of the top ten classic dishes in Sichuan. This dish is steamed with local Jiangtuan fish and ham as the main raw materials. After cooking, it has the characteristics of beautiful appearance, fat and tender meat, clear soup and delicious taste. Generally, it can only be eaten in hotels. Steamed dishes are generally not spicy, and so is Sichuan cuisine.

In fact, there are not many spicy dishes in Sichuan cuisine, and there are many more delicious and not spicy dishes than spicy dishes. The above list only says a small part of the famous ones.
