Top 10 traditional dishes of Chinese cuisine
Introduction to Chinese cuisine
Chinese cuisine owes its notoriety to the variety of food it offers as well as the harmony that is sought after in the dishes. The mix of flavors is reflected in the combination of vegetables and meat/fish or recipes based on rice or fried noodles with sauces and spices.
A cuisine with regional influences
The cultural richness of the country can be felt in the culinary arts, so much so that we speak of cuisines in the plural to qualify the country's gastronomy. It is divided into four main groups according to the regions of origin, which are themselves divided into eight subgroups. Depending on the region, the influences are diverse: it is sometimes said that the south is the region where sugar is very present, the west is the region of chilli pepper, the east is marked by sour dishes, and the north is known for its salty dishes.
