Chinese Food Culture
1. Characteristics of cuisines in southern part of China
Chinese cuisine has a number of different gees, but the most influential and typical known
by the public are the 'Eight Cuisines'. These are as follows: Shandong Cuisine, Guangdong Cuisine, Sichuan Cuisine, Hunan Cuisine, Jiangsu Cuisine, Zhejiang Cuisine, Fujian Cuisine and Anhui Cuisine.
We have roughly separated Chinese cuisine into two gees. They are Cuisines of the north
part and the southern part. Cuisines of the southern part of China are really featured. They have various differences with northern cuisine.
Firstly, abundant rain drops and sunlight in South China provide favorable conditions for the
growth of millet and rice. Compared with people in North China who have to spend much time in cold weather, people in South China are less preferable to meat diet, which contains lots of fat and
protein. Southern Chinese prefer plant diet quite a lot. Many people are accustomed to drink soup both before and after the meal. Guangdong Soup(老火靓汤)
Secondly, South China is one of the most developed areas in China. It welcomes people from
the entire world. As a result, Southern Cuisine, especially Guangdong Cuisine, emphasizes a flavor which is clear but not light, refreshing but not common, tender but not crude. Thirdly,People in South China tend to be more careful and sensitive than northern people. As
a result, their dishes as well as appearance are really cute and attractive. Just like dim sum(点心), which means “touch the heart”, is one of the most famous Cantonese meal. It consists of a variety of delicacies and is usually served for breakfast or dinner.

Cuisines of the north part of China have several characteristics.
people in the north tend to eat cooked wheaten food. Or in other words, people eat more food
made of flour. This is because the climate here is temperate
continental climate, which means there are less rain drops and sunlight. And this climate provides favorable conditions for the growth of wheat.

That is Shanxi(山西). As the saying goes, “east or west, Shanxi cooked wheaten food is best”. Shanxi is famous for its diverse and delicious cooked wheaten food. With a history of 2000years, Shanxi cooked wheaten food is gaining more and more popularity at home and even abroad.

Gao liang mian yu(高粱面鱼).
Second, food in the north is often more salty and greasy than that in the south.

Shandong cuisine and Beijing cuisines are two famous cuisines of the eight cuisines in china. And they are also representatives of the northern cuisines. Beijing cuisine is famous for its Beijing roast duck and instant-boiled mutton. Shandong food is always pure, fresh, tender, salty and crisp.
Chinese people pay much attention to eating, not just to fulfill our basic needs, but deep within, it contains the measures Chinese people take to understand things. For example, when a child was born, relatives and friends would eat eggs painted in red color to celebrate. Eggs symbolize new lives,
eating red eggs embodies the high expectations of the Chinese to carry on the family line. We have feasts in the weddings; we celebrate our birthdays with gatherings and delicious food; we gather with our friends or families to eat, which is a good way to enhance our intimacy.
