China's food culture has a long history and is world-renowned. So, what kind of Chinese food is the most popular in Japan? A website in Japan recently surveyed tens of thousands of Japanese netizens about "favorite Chinese food".
The survey results show that 82.7% people like Chinese food, while jiaozi, Mapo tofu and fried rice are among the top three favorite Chinese dishes.
In addition, ancient meat, shredded green pepper, spring rolls, steamed dumplings and steamed buns are also very popular. Among those who like spring rolls and steamed buns, women are 17-18% more than men, and most of them like dry-baked shrimp, steamed buns, mapo eggplant, great chicken, oil-soaked chicken, mapo fans and zongzi. Visible, compared with those gorgeous high-end delicacies, the Japanese prefer China people's "home-cooked meals".
The survey also shows that most people cook Chinese food at home two or three times a month, among which three adults cook it more than once a week, and the older people, the higher the frequency.
The top two Chinese dishes that Japanese people usually cook at home are jiaozi and Mapo tofu. When it comes to the impression of Chinese food, most Japanese people say that Chinese food is "popular", "heavy in taste", "adequate in quantity" and "greasy".
The first place in jiaozi, the top Chinese food is jiaozi, but the Japanese seldom eat dumplings, only fried dumplings. And, the most wonderful thing is that jiaozi is not a staple food in Japan, but eaten as a dish.
the standard configuration is fried dumplings with rice, which makes people unable to vomit. Because of work, I invited a Japanese colleague to have a working meal and ate it at a dumpling restaurant near the company.
Facing jiaozi, the Japanese colleague asked: Excuse me, can you order a rice for me? Watching him eat jiaozi with rice really convinced him.
