Judging from the nutritional research of ingredients, China's diet seems to be healthy and reasonable. They are foods with high methyl cellulose and low fat sugar. The diets of European and American countries are generally high in fat and calories, but this does not mean that they do not pay attention to the health of their diets. All cooking methods in Europe and America are indeed better than others in maintaining the natural nutrients of ingredients. For example, Europeans like to eat small vegetables, such as vegetables, fruits and fruit salads. Steak is also one of the favorite ingredients of Europeans.
The staple food is whole grains, the baby food supplement is vegetables and fruits, and a small amount of meat products. The main reason for this custom is that the central and western regions are dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry, with diverse social and economic development and production and processing. But in different classes, the distribution share of ingredients is different. So in ancient times, people in power were called "meat eaters". Mainly based on liquid food, vegetables and fruits, it is also a major feature of China people's dietary customs and human feelings. This is related to the early civilization and the development of cooking technology in China.
China people's diet is famous for its rich recipes and exquisite cooking techniques. Outside the book: Xiao Yan, a chef in the Han Dynasty, said that a melon can make ten flavors, and a dish can make dozens of flavors. His cooking skills are amazing. In terms of diet, China people also have the characteristics of products, which is the polyphagia system. The origin of food collection system was a long time ago. From the excavation of many underground relics, it can be seen that the ancient cooking room and food gathering area are unified. The cooking room is in the middle of the house, with a panoramic skylight above which the car can smoke and a fire below. When cooking on a fire, meat eaters gather around the fire. This ancient custom of gathering food has continued to future generations.
The long-term nature of food collection system is well known, which reflects China's emphasis on kinship, lineal consanguinity and family concept in diet. The special diet that embodies this point is the hot pot franchise store where we often eat together. Europeans like to be small and refined. For cooking ingredients, lack of nutrition and taste are their foothold and flight number query. They try their best to design, develop and study the differences of nutritional components of ingredients under different conditions, and cook delicious food from the perspectives of time, indoor space design, temperature, air relative humidity and so on.
If you eat, one person eats one dish, one knife and one fork. Although it has not evolved into other genres so far, it may be able to fight against Chinese restaurants. European and American countries pay attention to nutrition and ignore taste in cooking, at least not for the purpose of taste possession. They eat with cold drinks, and the cold wine they drink must be added with ice. Once they drink it cold, the central nervous system of taste all over the surface of the tongue greatly lacks the sensitivity of taste and gradually becomes unable to distinguish the taste. Bloody steaks and white fish, big fat meat, raw vegetables and fruits, boiled soybeans and potatoes in clear water all undeniably show Europeans' neglect of taste.
A set of data information from Taiwan Province Province can reflect the mutual harm of Chinese and western cuisines. According to the statistics of crop supply and demand in Taiwan Province Province published by Taiwan Province Agriculture Committee, at present, people in Taiwan Province Province eat less rice, but more vegetables, fruits and meat products. The average daily calorie intake is 2,882 calories, which is one third higher than the specified value published by the environmental sanitation administrative organ, and the fat intake is higher. According to the agriculture and supply in Taiwan Province Province last year, the "Agriculture Committee" may find out the dietary development trend of people in Taiwan Province Province. The results show that the people's food consumption in Taiwan Province Province is decreasing day by day, and the annual food consumption per person has decreased by 8.4 kilograms in the past ten years.
Among them, rice has decreased even faster, and the per capita annual rice consumption is only 49. 1KG, which is 1 1.6KG lower than that of ten years ago. The intake of Chinese dim sum has increased rapidly. The per capita annual wheat intake has reached 36.9 kg, 8 kg more than ten years ago, and all the wheat in Taiwan Province Province is imported. Taiwan Province residents' appetite for vegetables and fruits is also increasing. The annual intake of vegetables and fruits per person is 1 12.3KG, that is,14.2kg; Higher than the level of ten years ago. The fruit intake is also 143.3KG, in other words, each person will eat 255.5KG of fruits and vegetables every year, 2 1.3KG a month.
The reduction of rice flour has improved. For China, bean flour is the staple food of China people. The decrease of staple food is relatively continuous with meat and vegetables, which shows that the diet in China looks healthier and more reasonable, while the diet in Europe and America is generally high in fat and calories. Eating too much meat also provides some bad symptoms.
