Due to historical reasons, great changes have taken place in the social development of Northeast China. As a result, hardworking and brave Northeasters started their own Northeast cuisine. Because the Shandong people who have made the journey to Guandong are the mainstream, there are many shadows of Shandong cuisine in Northeast cuisine, and some practices of Beijing cuisine and Hebei cuisine are also integrated. The main essence is "stew".
In recent years, Northeasters have traveled all over the country, bringing Northeast cuisine to North China, then to Central China, and finally to the Pearl River Delta. To adapt to the tastes of people all over the world, generally speaking, Northeast cuisine is relatively miscellaneous and independent, so it is difficult to become one of the eight major cuisines. This reason is more heartfelt.
Standard 2: Name and appearance of dishes
The representative dishes of Northeast cuisine include killing pigs, northeast stew, braised pork, white meat and blood sausage, braised pork and fresh broken rice. Just listening to the name of the dish is very "bold". Among the eight major cuisines, Sichuan cuisine has Mapo tofu, Shandong cuisine has hibiscus chicken slices, Guangdong cuisine has plum braised pork, Jiangsu cuisine has Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish, Fujian cuisine has Buddha jumping wall, Zhejiang cuisine has Longjing shrimp, Hunan cuisine has goldfish chain, and Anhui cuisine has smoked duck without anything. Although the northeast cuisine is delicious, it is really difficult to compare with the eight major cuisines in terms of name. This reason is also more heartfelt.
Because northeast cuisine has the characteristics of stew, its appearance and value are also lost to the eight major cuisines. Winter in the northeast is very cold. For the convenience of eating, various ingredients are stewed together. There are meat and vegetables, but they are also rich in nutrition. "Stew a pot for three days", the original intention of stewing is to eat quickly, which saves dishes and delicacies, resulting in the northeast cuisine selling worse than the eight major cuisines. This truth has also deeply touched many people in the Northeast.
