What are the characteristics of China's food culture?

Characteristics of China's Food Culture;

1, heavy food: the ancients said that "food is the sky for the people." When we meet, we often ask "Have you eaten", which shows the status of food culture. It is customary for people to express farewell and welcome at the dinner table when friends say goodbye. When people are in emotional turmoil, people often resort to drinking and drinking to calm down. This is the regulating effect of dietary activities on social psychology.

2. Re-feeding: feeding "six viscera" with "five grains" and paying attention to human health care in diet. China's diet pays attention to the collocation of various foods, and guides cooking with rational knowledge of harmony between Yin and Yang, such as mutual restriction and mutual supplement.

3. Emphasis on taste: China's diet pays the most attention to the taste of food, paying attention to "color, fragrance, taste and shape". Dr. Sun Yat-sen said, "If you don't have good taste, then cooking is not good", and regarded aesthetics as the first essence of cooking.

4. Emphasis on management: there is a problem of taste guidance and promotion of emotional culture in food activities. China's diet advocates healthy, beautiful and enterprising cultural sentiment and pursues a noble sentiment.

5. China's diet has various flavors: China has a vast territory and rich resources, and its climate, products and customs are different, which has formed many flavors for a long time. There has always been a saying in China that "southern rice goes north", and the tastes are divided into "sweet in the south, salty in the north, sour in the east and spicy in the west", mainly in Bashu, Qilu, Huaiyang, Guangdong, Fujian and other places.
