American cuisine introduction

Lead: Speaking of American food, I think of hamburgers and chicken legs. What's more, the United States is an immigrant country. It covers all kinds of delicious food from all over the world, and there are different restaurants, including Chinese and fast food. Are you drooling? Eat quickly.

When it comes to American food, many people will scoff. Where there is only fast food, there is no good food. However, KFC and McDonald's are not the only ones in America. Influenced by the English Puritans, the early pioneers, traditional American food was very rough and crazy. Super heavy, no fancy cooking.

However, as an immigrant country, the blending of ethnic groups will naturally bring about the collision and spark of food. The invention of California hand roll has brought new vitality to Japanese cuisine. What do Americans think? China famous dishes? Left Rooster and fortune cookie, if you want to find them in China, you definitely don't have them. Based on European cuisine, it is compatible with Asian, African and Latin American cuisine, which is equivalent to a gourmet melting pot. Florida is the link between Latin America and the United States. Mexican food, Cuban food and Argentine food are dazzling.

Hamburgers are the most common fast food in America. Beef is cooked according to your needs, and there are several options for cheese. The bread is baked just right, and the bacon inside is the best. The juice is fragrant after hot explosion. Take a bite, the freshness of tomatoes and vegetables neutralizes the greasy taste of beef and bacon, and the taste is quite rich.

The traditional western dinner is naturally dominated by steak. Just a simple piece of meat comes up and tastes slowly, but you can feel the delicious beef itself. In this way, the requirements for beef ingredients themselves are very high.

Street hot dogs, the cheapest civilian food.

Western fried chicken originated in the southern United States. In the traditional southern town of Savannah, we attended an American dam feast. Every ten diners sit around a table, and twenty or thirty kinds of southern home-cooked dishes are casually eaten, passed on to each other and chatted.

The traditional southern United States is also famous for its barbecue. In Brunswick, we made a special trip to Right On Q BBQ, which is known as the first barbecue in the south.

Caf, which ranks as one of the top ten famous cafes in the world with Paris Flower God Cafe? Lalo is also one of the main scenes in the movie "Electronic Love Letter". We had coffee and breakfast here early in the morning, crossed the central park in autumn and stayed in the Metropolitan Museum all day. Fully experienced a new york-style elegance.

Now a frozen yogurt chain named Mochi is popular in America. It is healthier than ice cream, and DIY is full of fun. Do it yourself, add dozens of ingredients, and finally pay by weight, 45 cents per ounce.

1 1 USD a dozen boiled oysters. Holding a chisel and fork, open the oyster shell, warm and salty. It's fun to do it yourself. His shrimp is also very fresh, sprinkled with fried sea salt and pepper, which is very distinctive.

For those who have been longing to go to Spain to taste paella, it's not bad to try Cuban flavor first. Fresh seafood, key west's unique lime mixed with fragrant yellow rice, homemade butter biscuits and baked bananas are also delicious.

The United States is an immigrant country and a country that is very good at absorbing other people's cultures. American food is not only brought to the United States by immigrants from all over the world, but also many original American foods. In the past 232 years, they have invented many creative, bold and even crazy foods. Of course, most of them are too greasy, too much cheese and too much frying. But these are all their local dishes. You can also try them when you travel to America. This is a list of six American specialties for you.

1, chocolate cookie ice cream chocolate cookie doughnut ice cream

1937, Ruth Grave from Massachusetts added chocolate chips to her butter cookies. Thus invented the best cookies in the world. While enjoying her exotic cuisine, the American people are always imagining how to develop it better. 10 years later, I had an amazing understanding: because someone was too lazy to bake cookies in this area, he found that the mixed raw noodles were actually more delicious than the finished products. With the concerted efforts of the American people, Qi Xin, I finally came up with a spectacular idea: cut raw noodles into small pieces and mix them in ice cream! This is American cooking!

2, oversized bite turkey duck

Such ingenious and simple creation makes it hard to believe that 5000 years of world civilization was not thought of first. Take a turkey, put a duck in its belly, and then put a chicken in the duck. From here on, you are free to play. However, it is recommended to put some sausages and bacon in the chicken and fry it for 2-3 hours. In particular, if you can find a way to add melted cheese products here? Spectacular? On the plate. Some Americans want to turn this dish into a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, and some people have already started eating this dish at Christmas. However, such an American invention is still the most suitable to enjoy on July 4th.

3. Buffalo spicy chicken wings

Well, the chicken is ok. Most Americans think it is not as greasy as pork and delicious as beef, so they have to make do. Wait, if we try to fry it in 600-degree oil until it becomes brittle, until you don't know it's meat. Then pour XXX hot sauce and eat it with melted blue cheese? That's more like it! Especially the vegetables added at the bottom of the plate absorbed the oil in the chicken, and ordinary vegetables became delicious.

4. Coe Bouchaara Coe Bouchaara

After eating so much greasy food, some Americans began to say: I think I will only eat a bowl of salad today. ? Of course, when they say salad, they don't mean the green vegetables and red tomatoes that boring Europeans eat. When Americans make salads, they must first have enough kinds and weights of meat, and then they must have avocados and cheese. Basically, everything you can find in a double cheeseburger can be put in it. The best example is Bouchaara: Bacon, fried chicken, avocado, eggs, blue cheese and anything you can find in the refrigerator can be put in it.

5. China food? Chinese food?

The greatest advantage of American food is that it is strange. Sometimes they can't admit what they have come up with, so they find a similar style and keep that name. Example:? Chinese food? . Across the 50 States of the United States, the so-called Chinese fast food provides more than 65,438+00 beautiful dishes, fried in soy sauce and baked. Chicken dipped in sweet and spicy sauce and sliced bread is called orange chicken after frying, and cheese or cream is added to the spring rolls. After the fried rice and noodles are finished, the remaining oil on the plate can be used to copy 2-3 side dishes. These dishes all have one thing in common. They are all templates that Americans want to borrow Chinese food.

6. Guota cookies

I never understood why S'mores is so popular in America. Cookies are made in graham crackers, England, and not many people have eaten them in the United States. In the middle is a piece of fudge, which is worn by American children on a stick when they have a picnic. When it is baked, it is usually thrown aside, and few people like it. Maybe the cinnamon stick in the middle. Anyway, Americans like to eat with them.

American restaurants can be divided into three types.

The first is the cafeteria, which is especially convenient for newcomers or tourists who are not familiar with English. Cafeterias in Europe are more formal, but the United States is generally different from Europe. On the counter of the cafeteria, there are all kinds of food, hot and cold. Customers take plates and knives and forks at the counter and then pay at the cashier at one end of the counter. The food in the cafeteria is cheaper and there is no need to tip. When a customer carries a tray to an empty table by himself, he should usually ask the permission of the guests who are already sitting there before taking a seat.

The second is a regular restaurant with different sizes. Small restaurants have low prices and low service quality. The grand restaurant has everything customers need. There are many ethnic restaurants and foreign restaurants to choose from in big cities.

Most regular restaurants have some dishes, whole meals and special meals. The classified food for ordering includes fish, meat, salad and eggs, and customers can order at will. The whole meal is divided into appetizers, main courses, vegetables, desserts and drinks, which are also provided to guests. Special meals refer to daily meals, including dishes made of meat or fish, plus vegetables, salads, bread and cream. Among them, ordering food is the most expensive and spies are the cheapest.

When you eat in a regular restaurant, you should tip, the amount is about 05% of the meal fee of 65438+, and when you eat in a high-end restaurant or when the service is particularly thoughtful, the tip is even more; The tip is not on the bill, but paid by the customer alone. You can keep the change or leave the money on the table when you pay.

The third kind of restaurants are fast food restaurants, snack bars, delicatessens and lunch rooms; There are popular fast food restaurants everywhere in big cities, selling French fried potatoes, Italian pies, hamburgers, fried fish sandwiches, roast beef sandwiches and so on; You don't have to tip when you eat here.

Breakfast in the snack bar is doughnuts and coffee, and lunch is sandwiches. It is cheaper to eat or buy in the store, but you have to pay a tip when you eat in the store.

Deli shops also sell fast and affordable lunches, usually with various sandwiches and salads, and tips are required for eating in the shops.

The lunch room is usually located in the station or shop, and it sells breakfast, light lunch and fast food. There is no long counter in the store, but there are chairs or partition seats in front, so customers can sit alone and eat. The lunch room has many kinds of food, fast service and economy. It is a place frequented by passers-by. You should leave a tip on the counter after eating.
