China's delicious food is world-famous and the national quintessence that attracts foreign friends the most. Traditional China cuisine is divided into eight cuisines, namely, Shandong cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Guangdong cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine, Anhui cuisine, Hunan cuisine, Fujian cuisine and Zhejiang cuisine. Each cuisine has been passed down for many years, and after the improvement of chefs in past dynasties, the taste is even more unforgettable. Each cuisine has its own representative dishes. Let's share with you what delicious dishes I personally think are the representative dishes of each cuisine.

First, the representative dishes of Shandong cuisine: sweet and sour carp

Shandong cuisine originated in present-day Shandong Province, which was epitomized by the Confucius Family Banquet and later became an official dish. When the state entertained foreign guests, many of them were Shandong cuisine. Shandong cuisine pays attention to salty and fresh, highlights its original flavor, and requires accurate cooking. It is good at making soup and likes to cook with broth. Its representative dish is sweet and sour carp. The most authentic sweet and sour carp must be made of fresh carp from the Yellow River, which is a fine dish at the banquet.

second, the representative dish of Sichuan cuisine: Sichuan-style hot pot

Sichuan cuisine is called popular cuisine because it is most suitable for the general public, and both the ingredients and the preparation methods are very close to the people. Authentic Sichuan cuisine is heavy and spicy, spicy and delicious, and is good at using spicy seasoning. It can be said that spicy is the soul of Sichuan cuisine. There are many dishes in Sichuan cuisine, but I think Sichuan hot pot is the best embodiment of Sichuan cuisine, because Sichuan hot pot reflects the spicy soul of Sichuan cuisine to the fullest, and hot pot is also the most comforting food for civilians. There is nothing that can't be solved by a hot pot. If it can't be solved, let's have another meal.

Third, the representative dishes of Cantonese cuisine: roast suckling pig

Cantonese cuisine is more particular about the selection of ingredients and the relatively complicated production process, and pays attention to the momentum and grade of the dishes, so many people call Cantonese cuisine a wealthy businessman's dish. Cantonese cuisine also pays more attention to knife work and plate setting, so it looks more pleasing to the eye as a whole. I personally approve of roast suckling pig, the representative dish of Cantonese cuisine. I eat it once every time I go on a business trip to Guangdong Province, and I fell in love with its taste unconsciously.

the representative dish of Huaiyang cuisine: crab powder lion head

Huaiyang cuisine pays more attention to knife work, so its making process is amazing. In addition, Huaiyang cuisine pays more attention to adjusting soup, controlling the original flavor of ingredients, having a sweet taste, paying attention to color matching, and making good use of soy sauce, yellow wine and other seasonings. The so-called crab powder lion's head is actually a meatball made of crab meat and pork cut into fine powder. There are two methods: braising in soy sauce and steaming. It tastes soft, fat but not greasy and rich in nutrition.

five, the representative dishes of Anhui cuisine: stinky mandarin fish

Anhui cuisine is good at cooking, stewing and steaming, and pays attention to the freshness of ingredients, so many of them are made from local materials. Huizhou cuisine pays more attention to the control of cooking temperature, forming the characteristics of crisp, tender, fresh and fragrant. The most famous Anhui dish is stinky mandarin fish, also known as a bucket of fresh. The special pickling method makes this dish smell stinky, but it tastes fresh and abnormal, and it is mellow and delicious.

six, representative dishes of Hunan cuisine: Mao Shi braised pork

Hunan cuisine, which is traditionally called Hunan cuisine, is Chairman Mao's favorite hometown flavor. Hunan cuisine is mainly spicy, but it is not the same as Sichuan cuisine. It makes you feel particularly fragrant while it is spicy. Hunan cuisine is generally cooked, and its representative dish is Mao Shi braised pork. There are braised pork in many places, but only Mao Shi braised pork is the most authentic. Although pork belly is used as the staple food, Mao Shi braised pork is golden in color, and it tastes fat but not greasy, so it is very delicious.

Seven, representative dishes of Fujian cuisine: Fotiaoqiang

Fujian cuisine, which is also known as Fujian cuisine, is mainly fresh and fragrant, likes to season with sweet and sour and red distiller's grains, and pays special attention to the layering of taste and rich nutrition. The most famous Fujian cuisine is Fotiaoqiang. The Buddha jumps over the wall and selects precious ingredients such as abalone, sea cucumber, fish lips, tendons and scallops to make a delicious dish, which is rich in meat and flavor and nutrition.

VIII. Representative dishes of Zhejiang cuisine: West Lake vinegar fish

Zhejiang cuisine is light in taste, good at cooking food with fresh seafood and fresh lake as the main ingredient, and likes to season with yellow wine, and good at making all kinds of seafood dishes. Its representative dish is West Lake vinegar fish. West Lake vinegar fish must use local live fish as the main material, which is carefully cooked, with bright red color, fresh and tender meat, sweet and sour fragrance and distinctive features.

Eight cuisines, each with its own unique flavor, are full of praise. Dear friend, what kind of cuisine do you like best? Welcome everyone to leave a message and choose your favorite cuisine.
