stir-fried beef with cashew nuts
In several blogs, I introduced many different styles of stir-fried vegetables suitable for home making. China people like to eat stir-fried vegetables, but China's stir-fried vegetables are diverse and ever-changing. You will never be able to learn them all over your life. This is also an objective reason why it is difficult for foreigners to learn the essence of China's diet. Because it has too many practices and almost no rules to follow.
If you want to learn China food well, it will be very difficult to learn it without expert advice and hard work. Even if you learn some making methods and basic skills, it will only be superficial.
The understanding of making China food is very important. As the saying goes, the master leads the door and practices himself. Three parts learn skills and seven parts practice hard. This is the difference and uniqueness between China food culture and Western food culture. People have control over their weight. As long as they master the formula, everyone can make it. But China food is different. For the same dish, there are many practices across China. This also reflects the charm of China food. The harder it is to learn, the more mysterious it is, the more attractive it will be! It is also the essence of China's major cuisines and forms a relatively complete system of Chinese food culture. It has been passed down and developed for thousands of years, but it is always in the process of constant change!
Imagine that if China didn't have stir-fried vegetables on the dining table, it would be difficult for ordinary China to accept and adapt to it. In fact, many dishes can be changed at will. As long as you use your brain a little, you can make the taste you like. If it is accepted by others, it is a good dish!
