Korean food "ceremony"

Date of issue: September 7, 2006

The internal structure of Korean restaurants can be divided into two types: using chairs and taking off shoes to get on the kang.

When eating on the kang, men sit cross-legged and women stand on their right knees-this sitting posture is only used when wearing Hanbok. Nowadays, Korean women don't wear hanbok at ordinary times, just put their legs together and sit down. After sitting the dishes, in a short time, the aunt in the restaurant will come to you with a tray. She will take out the tableware from the tray first, and then the food.

Koreans usually use flat-headed chopsticks made of stainless steel. Both China and Japan have the habit of eating with rice bowls, but Koreans think this behavior is not standardized. And don't touch your job with your mouth. A bowl with a round bottom and a cover is sitting on the table, and there is no handle for you to hold. Coupled with the heat from the rice to the bowl, it is reasonable not to touch it. As for the bowl cover, you can take it off and put it on the table at will.

Since you are acting recklessly, your left hand must be obedient, hide under the table honestly, and don't "shine" on the table. The right hand must first pick up the spoon, take a sip of soup from pickles, then take a bite of rice with the spoon, and then take another bite of soup and rice, and then you can eat whatever you want. This is the order in which Koreans eat. Spoons are more important than chopsticks in Korean diet. They are responsible for filling soup, fishing for soup dishes and filling rice. When not in use, put it on a rice bowl or other utensils. And chopsticks? It is only responsible for picking vegetables. Under no circumstances can you take bean sprouts out of your soup bowl with a spoon, and you can't use chopsticks. First of all, there is the problem of food ceremony, and secondly, soup may flow down the chopsticks to the table. When chopsticks don't hold vegetables, the traditional Korean practice is to put them on the table in the right hand direction, with two chopsticks close together, two-thirds on the table and one-third outside the table, which is for the convenience of picking them up and using them again.

Koreans are an emotional people. We should fully understand how they express their feelings through dinner, and at the same time, we should rationally admit that this is an unsanitary "food gift".

Characteristics of Korean diet

Because the climate and local conditions are suitable for the development of agriculture, South Korea began to grow miscellaneous grains as early as the Neolithic Age, and then popularized the cultivation of rice. Since then, grain has become the center of Korean food culture, and in the late Three Kingdoms period, an inherent Korean home-cooked meal with rice and vegetables as the main non-staple food was formed. Later, cereal diets such as rice, porridge, cakes, noodles, jiaozi, sliced soup and wine were developed, which also brought the development of fermented diets based on soy sauce and then yellow sauce. There are not only cultivated vegetables, but also a wide variety of wild vegetables naturally grown in Shan Ye, which can be used to make cold dishes, rice balls, vegetarian dishes, pickles and so on. Decorate the dining table with seasons.

Traditionally, ginger, cinnamon, Artemisia argyi, Schisandra chinensis, Lycium barbarum, Adenophora adenophora, Platycodon grandiflorum, papaya, pomegranate, grapefruit, ginseng and other medicinal materials have been widely used in cooking. There are various foods such as ginseng chicken soup, mugwort cake, radix adenophorae, cold salad, etc. And ginger tea, ginseng tea, papaya tea, citron tea, wolfberry tea, cassia seed tea, tea and other drinks. Seasonings and spices are also called medicines in Korea. It has always been thought that onion, garlic, ginger, pepper, sesame oil and sesame have medicinal value. The daily food of Koreans is mainly rice, with several dishes. The staple food is mainly rice and miscellaneous grains rice, mixed with miscellaneous grains such as millet, barley, soybean and adzuki bean.

Non-staple foods are mainly soup, miso soup, pickles, sauces, and foods made of meat, flat fish, vegetables and seaweed. This way of eating can not only eat all kinds of foods in a balanced way, but also achieve the goal of balanced nutrition.

The staple food is rice, porridge, noodles, jiaozi, rice cake soup and sliced soup; Non-staple foods include soup, miso soup, roast, stir-fry, sauced meat, stir-fry, sliced meat, wild vegetables, vegetables, sauced fish, dried fish, miso, stew, hot pot, pickles and so on. In addition to this daily diet, there are all kinds of cakes, maltose, tea, wine and other diets. It promoted the development of sauce, fish in sauce, pickles, etc. Used for storing fermented food.

Korean diet includes daily diet that is repeated every day, food that must be placed in ceremonies throughout life, food for harvest festivals and fish festivals to pray for good harvest and good fishing, tribal sacrificial food to pray for tribal peace, and sacrificial food to mourn the dead. At the same time, it also uses the food at that time to make seasonal dishes according to the different seasons. South Korea's seasonal food custom is formed by coordinating the wisdom of man and nature, and it is also very scientific in nutrition. For example, eating walnuts on the fifteenth day of the first month will not cause sores all year round, which must be based on the scientific statement that insufficient fatty acid supplementation can effectively prevent skin rot, tinea and eczema. And beginning of spring eats wild vegetables in spring, which not only has the feeling of welcoming spring, but also can supplement the vitamins lacking in winter.

It can be said that local food is a local specialty produced according to local geography and climate characteristics, and it is an authentic folk food made by ancestral cooking methods. From this point of view, the custom of Chinese New Year, passed down in various places through rituals and living customs, not only has the characteristics of local culture, but also has great significance in nutrition.

In the class of Korean College of Seoul National University, a beautiful female teacher taught "meat" and gave examples of using pork, chicken and beef. Jeff, a good Australian student, chipped in and mentioned the word "dog meat". The teacher tried to avoid it lightly, but other students asked what it meant.

Jeff proudly explained in English that it was dog meat. Someone immediately exclaimed that American students and Finnish students could not shut up for a long time. The teacher asked: which country do people eat dog meat? I shook hands with another China student hesitantly. The teacher asked Mongolian students: Don't Mongolians eat dog meat? She may think that Mongolia is adjacent to China and should be close in habit. A nao, a Mongolian female student, loudly said no, and then said: Eating dog meat is eating friends' meat. I just learned the word "friend" in class. She uses it very fluently and her pronunciation is unprecedented.

The female teacher's expression for an instant was unnatural, as if the embarrassment of a nation on the dog meat issue was written on her face. She muttered: In Korea, people who eat dog meat are "bad spirits". This word is equivalent to "old man" in Chinese, meaning a married man in his late forties with a stubble on his face. Vulgar, good wine, paunchy and careless.

Her attitude is the true psychology of quite a few Koreans now. Eating dog meat, drinking soju, beating gongs and drums and singing are our impressions of the traditional lifestyle of Koreans. So Seoul should have been the base camp of the dog meat restaurant. Walking into the restaurant, there was a bowl of dog broth piled on the table, which was rich in flavor and oil. There is an unknown heat under the red pepper. I swallowed it in a hurry, and my forehead immediately sweated. How carefree that would be.

But walking on the streets of Seoul today, there is no dog meat restaurant at all, which is caused by the Olympic Games and the World Cup. When bidding for the Olympic Cup, capable Koreans did a great job in both hardware and software. Unexpectedly, a small appetite has become an obstacle to holding a grand event. Westerners like to treat dogs as brothers, so they can't tolerate some people in the East treating dogs as delicacies. Koreans have also argued that the dogs they eat are carnivorous dogs, not pet dogs, but westerners don't listen. This is the irrationality of the so-called strong culture. Writer Lian Yue once said that the dog meat restaurant was only temporarily closed, but after the World Cup, it was not completely reopened, and business might be better. It can't change the eating habits of Koreans, nor can it save the lives of dogs. Why bother?

The second half of Lian Yue's remarks belongs to speculation. After the World Cup, most dog meat restaurants in Seoul closed their doors and jumped ship, and those that reopened entered hutongs, just like newsstands in some cities in China were driven into alleys. After several twists and turns, not eating dog meat has really evolved into a fashion in Seoul. Fashion is contagious. You know, nearly half the population of this country lives in this city. The so-called boat is easy to turn around, and most people in Seoul don't buy it. If you insist that Koreans' eating habits will never change, you should really be careful.

But as far as I know, some professors at Seoul National University occasionally eat dog meat together. Most of them are educated in the West, and they understand the feelings of Westerners who oppose Seoul's bid for the Olympic Cup based on dog meat, but this does not affect them from secretly eating dog meat in the hutongs of Seoul. They wear suits and ties and chew according to the case, but they are filled with happiness in silence. This kind of happiness, exaggerated, is like a group of friends in ancient times, dressed in animal skins, hiding in the depths of the jungle, lighting a bonfire and baking prisoners.

Of course, some people openly expressed their dissatisfaction. According to Korean media reports, a professor surnamed An from Chungcheong University presided over the development of dog sausages, canned dogs and dog hamburgers. There is even a vanishing cream extracted from dog oil, of course, the scientific name is cream, or essence. In a word, he should vigorously advocate dog culture and challenge westerners with high-tech development.

On the occasion of Professor An's press conference, members of the Seoul Citizens' Group Against Eating Dog Meat held a rally outside the restaurant. They held slogans such as "love animals" and "dog meat is not a traditional Korean diet" against Professor An. The news didn't say whether Professor An saw the second slogan. If he had, he might think: You can say that the sun is black by blindfolding yourself? You don't want to eat, you want to be in line with the world, you can start from yourself, from now on, don't eat. But it's a bit dishonest of you to say that you haven't eaten at all.
