Chinese food, considered to be the biggest cultural exchange between China and other countries, is famous for its colors, aromatic flavors and the variety of its regional cuisines and ingredients. The following ten dishes are each unique in their own way yet they all have exquisite flavors, wonderful presentations and deep cultural meanings.

中國(guó)菜色、香、味俱全,菜系發(fā)達(dá),食材豐富,被譽(yù)為最好的中外文化交流大使。以下十道菜取材烹飪各有其道,卻都口感上乘、外觀精致、文化寓意深遠(yuǎn)。

Fried Shrimps with Cashews

腰果蝦仁

Compared with the heavy tastes of Spicy Tofu, this dish is relatively light. Known for being nutritious, good-looking and tasty. Fried Shrimp and Cashews is said to protect the cardio-cerebral-vascular system and prevent cardiovascular disease. The shrimp is usually soft and easily digestible and accented by the cashews.

相比口味較重的麻辣豆腐,本品口感清淡,向以營(yíng)養(yǎng)豐富、色澤誘人、美味可口著稱。據(jù)說(shuō)腰果蝦仁能有效保護(hù)心腦血管系統(tǒng),預(yù)防心腦血管疾病。蝦仁肉質(zhì)鮮嫩,易于消化,與酥脆的腰果同炒相得益彰。

The dish is easy to cook at home. There are two very important tips that you should follow. First, if the shrimp is a bit too hard, one can put flour inside of them to soften them up. Second, one knows when the cashews have been in long enough once they start to sink in the hot water. They should then be fried until golden yellow.

腰果蝦仁是道家常菜。烹飪時(shí)注意以下兩點(diǎn):第一,如果蝦仁較老,可放些面粉,使之軟嫩;第二,將腰果浸泡在熱水中,一俟下沉,即可撈出炸至金黃。

Main Ingredients: shrimp, cashews and celery.

主要食材:蝦仁、腰果、芹菜。

Chow Mein

炒面

Chow Mein is a rich source of nutrition and has many health benefits including improving digestion, anemia and immunity. Extremely popular in China and all over the world, this stir-fried noodle dish comes in many varieties. Cantonese Chow Mein is the most famous in Western countries.

炒面營(yíng)養(yǎng)豐富,有益健康,有促進(jìn)消化、改善貧血、增強(qiáng)免疫力等功效。本品在全球都頗受歡迎,在中國(guó)尤為風(fēng)靡。本品做法多樣,在西方最為知名的是粵式炒面。

In American Chinese cuisine, Chow Mein consists of noodles, meat, onions and celery. It is served as a specific dish at westernized Chinese restaurants. The East and West Coasts of the United States do have some differences in preparation of this dish. On the East Coast, Chow Mein is almost always prepared in the “Hong Kong” style and crispy. On the West Coast, Chow Mein is almost always steamed and soft.

在美式中餐中,炒面用料有面條、肉、洋蔥和芹菜等。這道菜被奉為西方中餐館的特色菜。美國(guó)的東西海岸做法存在差異,東海岸的炒面類似港式,口感筋道,而西海岸大多采用蒸制,口感糯軟。

Most restaurants in China cook this dish by deep frying the noodles; the fastest way to obtain the beautiful golden yellow noodles associated with this aromatic dish.

中國(guó)大多數(shù)餐館會(huì)先將面條油炸,以最快方式使之呈現(xiàn)金黃色。

Main Ingredients: noodles and oil.

主要食材:面條和食用油。

Peking Duck

北京烤鴨

Now considered to be one of China’s National Foods, the Peking Duck is prized for its eloquent taste and stunning presentation. This famous dish can be found at restaurants all around Beijing. Upscale restaurants take this dish so seriously that some even have their own duck farms and use only a special kind of duck for their specific Peking Duck dish.

北京烤鴨味道醇厚、色澤鮮亮,被譽(yù)為國(guó)菜,北京各大飯店均有供應(yīng)。高檔餐館更是考究,甚至有自己的養(yǎng)鴨場(chǎng),以特定品種的鴨子作為原材料,制作獨(dú)具特色的北京烤鴨。

The Quanjude Restaurant, one of the largest roast duck restaurants in Beijing, if not the world, opened its door in 1979. Filled to capacity, Quanjude can serve as many as 5,000 meals a day. Peking Duck is famous for its thin, crispy skin, and its delectable and aromatic meat, which is highly popular among all foreigners, including foreign celebrities and leaders.

全聚德(和平門(mén)店)建于1979年,系北京乃至全球最大的烤鴨店之一。全聚德每天最多可提供5000桌供顧客用餐,北京烤鴨外皮薄脆,肉質(zhì)細(xì)嫩,口味鮮美,受到很多外國(guó)友人的大力推崇,其中不乏社會(huì)名流、國(guó)際政要。

Main Ingredients: duck, pancake and greenonions.

主要食材:鴨肉、薄餅、大蔥。

Won Ton Soup

餛飩

Won Ton Soup, called “Hun Dun” in Mandarin, is a highly welcoming dish in China. Since China is a nation of diverse ethnic groups and different cultures, each region has their own shapes for won tons. Won tons are usually boiled and served in soup, but they can also be deep-fried.

餛飩在中國(guó)備受鐘愛(ài)。中國(guó)民族眾多,文化各異,因此各地餛飩外形各異。餛飩一般是煮熟帶湯食用,也可以油炸。

The most versatile shape for won tons is a simple right triangle. Made by folding the won ton in half and pulling together to two opposite corners, won ton’s flat profile allows it to be pan-fried like a pot sticker in addition to it being boiled or deep-fried.

餛飩最常見(jiàn)的形狀是簡(jiǎn)單的直角三角形。制作時(shí)先將餛飩皮對(duì)折,再將對(duì)角捏合。此種餛飩外形扁平,因而可以煮制或油炸,亦可采用鍋貼式做法,以平底鍋煎制。

Many people mix up won tons and dumplings, but there are three major differences. First, they have different starting shapes; won tons make use of a 6cm square or isosceles trapezoid base while dumplings use a 7cm diameter circular base. Second, the “skin” used for won tons is much thinner than the “skin” used for dumplings. Finally, won tons are always found in soups while dumplings are dipped in condiments and sauces.

很多人容易混淆餛飩和水餃,事實(shí)上兩者有三大區(qū)別。其一,餃子皮與餛飩皮外形不同。餛飩皮為邊長(zhǎng)約6厘米的正方形或是底邊長(zhǎng)6厘米的等腰梯形;水餃皮為直徑約7厘米的圓形。其二,兩者有薄厚之別,餛飩皮遠(yuǎn)薄于水餃皮。其三,餛飩一般與湯一起供應(yīng),而水餃則是配以蘸料。

Main Ingredients: pork, shrimp, vegetables and green onions.

主要食材:豬肉、蝦、蔬菜、大蔥。

Dumplings 餃子

During the Spring Festival, Chinese families will get together and have dumpling parties. It is said that the dish was invented by Zhang Zhongjing, one of the finest Chinese physicians in history. Dumplings have a 1,800 year long history which is why it is one of the most popular traditional foods in China and extremely popular in Western countries.

每逢春節(jié),中國(guó)人會(huì)全家團(tuán)聚,一起吃餃子。據(jù)說(shuō)餃子由東漢名醫(yī)張仲景首創(chuàng),距今已有1800年的歷史。餃子是中國(guó)最受歡迎的傳統(tǒng)美食之一,同時(shí)也受到西方人的大力追捧。

They may be cooked by boiling, steaming, simmering, frying or baking.

餃子的烹調(diào)方法主要有煮、蒸、燉、炸、烤等。

Dumplings feature thin skin, soft stuffing, and unique shapes. Dumpling stuffings are various, including pork, beef, cabbage, carrots, and/or onions among others. Deep cultural meanings are usually associated with this dish, for example dumplings stuffed with celery is called “qin cai jiao” in Chinese, which is a homophone for the phrase that means “hard working and lots of wealth.”

餃子皮薄餡松,造型獨(dú)特。餃子餡料豐富,豬肉、牛肉、卷心菜、蘿卜、洋蔥等均可。餃子常有深刻的文化寓意,如用芹菜作為餡料的餃子稱為芹菜餃,因“芹”“菜”分別與“勤”“財(cái)”諧音,寓意“勤勞和財(cái)富”。

Main Ingredients: meats, vegetables and flour.

主要食材:肉類、蔬菜、面粉。

Spicy Tofu (Mapo doufu)

麻辣豆腐(麻婆豆腐)

Spicy Tofu, known in Chinese as “mapo doufu”, is one of the most famous dishes from Sichuan cuisine. The dish features the trademark “hot” spiciness along with the characteristically tongue-numbing nature of Sichuan’s flavorful food.

麻辣豆腐,又稱麻婆豆腐,是川菜中最有名的菜肴之一。食用后口舌俱麻,唇齒留辣,充分體現(xiàn)了川菜“麻辣”的特點(diǎn)。

Spicy Tofu can be found in restaurants all over China, as well as in South Korea and Japan, where the flavors are adapted to local tastes. The Japanese style still retains the “spiciness”, even though spicy is not the preferred taste in Japanese cuisine, and is coupled with Japanese rice.

中國(guó)各地餐館里均能見(jiàn)到麻婆豆腐。在韓國(guó)、日本也很常見(jiàn),不過(guò)加入了當(dāng)?shù)仫L(fēng)味。盡管日本料理不以“辣”見(jiàn)長(zhǎng),但日式做法仍然保留了這一特點(diǎn),食用時(shí)通常搭配日本米飯。

Main Ingredients: tofu (Bean Curd) and beef.

主要食材:豆腐、牛肉。

Egg-fried Rice

蛋炒飯

Originally from China’s ancient western regions, egg-fried rice has now become part of Chinese people’s daily cuisine. Famous for its aromatic smells, soft textures and handsome presentation, one can easily find this popular dish anywhere in China, from high class hotels to family-run restaurants on the street.

蛋炒飯最早出現(xiàn)于中國(guó)西部地區(qū),現(xiàn)今已經(jīng)成為中國(guó)人的家常菜。本品香氣撲鼻、質(zhì)地松軟、望之令人垂涎,在中國(guó)的高級(jí)酒店或街邊小攤均能見(jiàn)到。

While it is fairly easy to make, there are some points that should be kept in mind: use left-over rice rather than newly-cooked rice for better taste. Additionally, before frying, the rice should be churned up.

本品烹飪方法雖然簡(jiǎn)單,仍有幾點(diǎn)需要注意:為保證口感,用剩飯而不用新飯;炒前應(yīng)充分?jǐn)嚢琛?/p>

Main Ingredients: rice, eggs and oil.

主要食材:大米、雞蛋、食用油。

春卷是道開(kāi)胃點(diǎn)心,炸制或即食均可。本品通常在春節(jié)期間食用,因而得名春卷。春卷外觀酷似金條,因而寓意財(cái)富。當(dāng)然味道也很好。
