『壹』 英語作文書信:中國食物介紹
Chinese cuisine ( Traditional Chinese: 中國菜, Simplified Chinese:中國菜) originated from the various regions of China and has become widespread in many other parts of the world — from East Asia to North America, Australia, Western Europe and Southern Africa.
Regional cultural differences vary greatly amongst the different regions of China, giving rise to the different styles of food. There are eight main regional cuisines, or Eight Great Traditions (八大菜系): Anhui, Cantonese, Fujian, Hunan, Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, and Zhejiang. Among them, Cantonese, Sichuan, Shandong, and Huaiyang cuisine (a major style and even viewed as the representation of the entire Jiangsu cuisine) are often considered as the standouts of Chinese cuisine and e to their influence are proclaimed as the Four Great Traditions (四大菜系). Occasionally Beijing cuisine and Shanghai cuisine are also cited along with the aforementioned eight regional styles as the Ten Great Traditions (十大菜系). There are also featured Buddhist and Muslim sub-cuisines within the greater Chinese cuisine, with an emphasis on vegetarian and halal-based diets respectively.
In most dishes in Chinese cuisine, food is prepared in bite-sized pieces (e.g. vegetables and meat which is known as tofu), ready for direct picking up and eating. Traditionally, Chinese culture considered using knives and forks at the table barbaric e to fact that these implements are regarded as weapons. It was also considered ungracious to have guests work at cutting their own food. Fish are usually cooked and served whole, with diners directly pulling pieces from the fish with chopsticks to eat, unlike in some other cuisines where they are first filleted. This is because it is desired for fish to be served as fresh as possible, and more importantly, whole fish culturally signifies wholeness of things as it has a proper beginning (head) with an end (tail). It is common in many restaurant settings for the server to use a pair of spoons to divide the fish into servings at the table. Chicken is another meat popular in Chinese meals. While the chicken is cut into pieces, and similar to serving fish every single piece of the chicken is served including gizzards and head in order to signify completeness.
In a Chinese meal, each indivial diner is given his or her own bowl of rice while the accompanying dishes are served in communal plates (or bowls) that are shared by everyone sitting at the table. In the Chinese meal, each diner picks food out of the communal plates on a bite-by-bite basis with their chopsticks. This is in contrast to western meals where it is customary to dole out indivial servings of the dishes at the beginning of the meal. Many non-Chinese are uncomfortable with allowing a person's indivial utensils (which might have traces of saliva) to touch the communal plates; for this hygienic reason, additional serving spoons or chopsticks （"公筷", lit. common/public/shared chopsticks) may be made available. In areas with increased Western influence, such as Hong Kong, diners are provided indivially with a heavy metal spoon for this purpose. The food selected is often eaten together with some rice either in one bite or in alternation.
[edit] Red meat
Pork is generally preferred over beef in Chinese cuisine e to economic and aesthetic reasons; the pig is easy to feed and is not used for labour, and is so closely tied with the idea of domesticity that the character for "home" depicts a pig under a roof. The colour of the meat and the fat of pork are regarded as more appetizing, while the taste and smell are described as sweeter and cleaner. It is also considered easier to digest. However, beef is more popular in the west of the country, influenced by Islam, and also in the Sichuan region and parts of the south, where cattle are used for hauling in mining and are plentiful.[1] Lamb is more popular in the far north of the country.
[edit] Vegetarianism
Main article: Vegetarianism in China
Vegetarianism is not uncommon or unusual in China, though, as is the case in the West, it is only practiced by a relatively small proportion of the population. Most Chinese vegetarians are Buddhists, following the Buddhist teachings about minimizing suffering. Chinese vegetarian dishes often contain large varieties of vegetables (e.g. bok choy, shiitake mushroom, sprouts, corn) and some imitation meat. Such imitation meat is created mostly with soy protein and/or wheat gluten to imitate the texture, taste, and appearance of ck, chicken, or pork. Imitation seafood items, made from other vegetable substances such as konjac, are also available.
[edit] Beverages
In traditional Chinese culture, cold beverages are believed to be harmful to digestion of hot food, so items like ice-cold water or soft drinks are traditionally not served at meal-time. Besides soup, if any other beverages are served, they would most likely be hot tea or hot water. Tea is believed to help in the digestion of greasy foods. Despite this tradition, nowadays beer and soft drinks are popular accompaniment with meals. A popular combo in many small restaurants in parts of China is hot pot served with cold beer, a combination known as "冷淡杯" (Pinyin: leng3 dan4 bei1, literally: cold and bland cup, despite being strongly flavored), which is the very opposite of what traditional wisdom would admonish. Ideas from Chinese herbology, such as the four natures, influence the food combinations favored in traditional Chinese meals.
[edit] Contemporary health trends
According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates for 2001–2003, 12% of the population of the People』s Republic of China was undernourished.[2] The number of undernourished people in the country has fallen from 386.6 million in 1969–1971 to 150.0 million in 2001–2003.[3]
Undernourishment is a problem mainly in the central and western part of the country, while "unbalanced nutrition" is a problem in developed coastal and urban areas. Decades of food shortages and rationing ended in the 1980s. A study in 2004 showed that fat intake among urban dwellers had grown to 38.4 percent, beyond the 30 per cent limit set by the World Health Organization. Excessive consumption of fats and animal protein has made chronic diseases more prevalent. As of 2008, 22.8 percent of the population were obese and 18.8 percent had high blood pressure. The number of diabetes cases in China is the highest in the world. In 1959, the incidence of high blood pressure was only 5.9 percent.[4][5]
A typical Chinese peasant before instrialization would have eaten meat rarely and most meals would have consisted of rice accompanied with green vegetables, with protein coming from foods like peanuts. Fats and sugar were luxuries not eaten on a regular basis by most of the population. With increasing wealth, Chinese diets have become richer with more meats, fats, and sugar being consumed.
Health advocates put some of the blame on the increased popularity of Western foods, especially fast food, and other culinary procts and habits. Many Western, especially American, fast food chains have appeared in China, and are highly successful economically. These include McDonald's and Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC).
An extensive epidemiological study called the China Project is being concted to observe the relationship of disease patterns to diet, particularly the move from the traditional Chinese diet to one which incorporates more rich Western-style foods. Controversially, Professor T. Colin Campbell has implicated the increased consumption of animal protein in particular as having a strong correlation with cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and other diseases that, while common in Western countries, were considered rare in China. He suggests that even a small increase in the consumption of animal protein can dramatically raise the risk of the aforementioned diseases.

There're too many things that I want to put in my answer, but the most important thing that I want to tell you all is ---- GOOD / HIGH CLASS AUTHENTIC CHINESE RESTAURANT DO NOT PUT MSG IN THEIR FOOD, they use premium grade ingredients and they prepare their stocks everyday!
My dad is a good cook, my sister and I also can cook, we never put msg in our food and we buy fresh vegetables & seafood daily in the market, our meals contain lot of vegetables + fish and less meat (my family eat chicken, fresh water fish and seafood, no beef nor mutton). When we go to restaurant to have Cantonese food, the steamed fish - garoupa or lobster were killed soon after we picked from the tank.
China is a big country (as big as USA) and has the biggest population, therefore, Chinese from different regions have different cooking ways, styles & tastes. For example, Sichuan cuisine is very spicy while Cantonese cuisine isn't spicy at all. People in the north eat wheat noodles or steamed buns while people from the south eat rice or rice noodles.
Chinese food is different from Western food by the way we prepare food before cooking, Chinese cut the ingredients in bite size then stir fry or steam the ingredients in short time while westerners cook the ingredients in big pieces and cut the food on their plates with knives and forks.
There are some ingredients or seasonings in Chinese cuisine that Western cuicine seldom use, like jelly fish, sea cucumbers, shark's fins, fish maws, bird's nest, thousand years eggs, bean curds (tofu), oyster sauce, black bean sauce, salty shrimp paste, soy sauce, ... etc. On the other hand, Western cooking adds herbs like rosemary, dill, sage, oregano, thyme, tarragon.. etc, in their food while seldom you would find these herbs in Chinese food.

『柒』 中國食物英文作文
If asked the Chinese food, I would say it is stinky tofu that is marvelous and representative.
I once took my foreign friend to a night market, which we were gossiping and we smelled a fit of stinky smell. I introced this local delicacy in Chinese, stinky tofu, to him. He asked me with inquiring expression, "How can Chinese eat this smelly thing ?" At this time, I heard a street vendor hawing stinky tofu as I saw it, with me drooling. It is a matter of course that I strongly recommended the delicious taste of it, urging my friend to enjoy it at the same time. In the beginning, hardly could he stand the smell of stinky tofu; notwithstanding, after reluctantly tasting a bite of it, he was so amazed that he wanted another bite. "People of Chinese are genius!You can create such formidable specialty! " he exclaimed. I also took him to try other common snakes in the night market. Despite the fact that he tried a variety of delicacies, he has been haunted by the foul odor of stinky tofu ever since he returned to his country. Not merely has he continuously recommended Chinese delicacies, but likewise I have mad an number of foreign friends afterwards because of stinky tofu as well.
Had it not been for stinky tofu, I would have not had interest in common and making lots of friends.As the case stands, I consider stinky, aromatic and smooth stinky tofu to be the most representative in Chinese food!

當被問到中國菜，我會說那就是臭豆腐才令人驚嘆又具代表性。
有一次我帶我外國朋友去逛夜市，正當我們在聊八卦的時候，我們聞到了一陣惡臭的味道。我跟我朋友介紹這是中國本土美食臭豆腐。他用探詢的表情問我：「中國人怎麼能吃這種東西？」這時候我聽到小販叫賣臭豆腐，我看到臭豆腐時我的口水都快留下來了。不用說我當下就大力推薦臭豆腐，同時催促我朋友快點跟我一起來享受美味。一開始，他幾乎沒辦法忍受臭豆腐的味道，盡管如此，當他不情願的吃下一口後，他很驚奇地說要再吃。「中國人真是天才！可以創造出這麼令人害怕的美食！」他大叫道。我也帶他去吃其他夜市常見的小點心，雖然他吃了各式各樣的美食，他回國後至今仍對臭豆腐的惡臭念念不忘。而他不僅不斷地向朋友推薦中國美食，我之後也因為臭豆腐結交不少新的外國朋友。
要不是當時有臭豆腐，我可能無法認識許多新的朋友並且與他們有共同的興趣。就是因為這樣，我才視又臭又香又滑的臭豆腐為最具代表的中國美食。
