/ck/ - Food & Cooking

buckweat is disgusting dude like what is wrong with white rice, a hearty loaf of bread with some butter, mashed taters, fuck even some pasta, with a stew
holy shit
it's like lets put all this effort in (i can only assume it's a tasty stew), and then eat it with some horse feed.

Japanese cuisine is popular because they treat ingredients with respect, use high quality and go for simplicity.

But that's my experience in China also. In Guangzhou, my friends family would buy a live chicken (or a silkie bantam) at the market, and come back 30 mins later to pick them up butchered and cleaned. Then they would just poach it with ginger.
It was better than any chicken i've ever had.

We'd also go to restaurants and order live fish which they kill to order, and steam whole.

They were also pretty big on really really fresh green leafy vegetables, either steamed or sauted with garlic.

So the perception I had of chinese food, which was big flavours and cheap ingredients (which I like), was not solely my experience in Guangzhou.
They almost seemed to have a Japanese/Italian preference for high quality ingredients and simplicity. It was a very delicate civilized cuisine that they favored, like Japan.

So i'm going to say China is the super cuisine. Because they can do what makes Japanese food great, which I hadn't really realised, but they can also do the hard hitting big flavours, the pools of oil, the spice.

Japanese food is for the most part like Italian food. It's about minimalism, perfect execution and high quality ingredients.

Why do people get so triggered by any mention of Asian food?

>thicken a sauce by adding a cornstarch slurry at the end instead of starting with a roux
>garlic ginger and chilli instead of onion carrot and celery
>noodles instead of pasta
>jasmine rice instead of basmati rice
>umami from fish sauce instead of anchovies or tomato paste or worchester sauce

I mean fuck, white people who know about Asian food probably cook European food better as well, better than white people who get triggered by it.

>boil beef
>use raw eggs as a dipping sauce
>eat soy with every meal
>no ones home stovetop is capable of high heat
>add unnecessary tedious steps to everything
>somehow everything is also bland with no complexity
>every dish is just mirin, soy sauce and sugar
>buy meme fruit for hundreds of dollars
>pay $300 for some raw fish and some rice now this is the pinnacle of cuisine gajin

Is there a more overrated meme food nation than Japan?
