Let's learn Chinese language and Chinese culture through Slow Chinese Podcast.

Have you tried Chinese food? Most Chinese food smell and taste so good and many people fall in love with China because of its food. But there are exceptions. Some food stink terribly and you might want to cover your nose immediately once you smell it. If you have the courage to try, you probably will never regret because they actually taste delicious! In today's episode, let's find out what stinky food Chinese people like and I hope that will increase your appetite instead of reducing it!

中国的食物讲究色、香、味俱全,但也有例外。

有些食物很臭,闻到就想逃走,

但吃上一口又会觉得没那么可怕,甚至还会上瘾!比如说下面五种:

第一种,臭豆腐。

臭豆腐是一种发酵豆腐,有很浓的味道。

走在中国的小吃街上,寻着臭味的方向,一般就能找到臭豆腐。

大家都说“臭豆腐闻起来臭,吃起来香”。

制作的时候一般先把豆腐炸到金黄,再配上辣椒、香菜和蒜蓉。

它带来的丰富的味觉感受,不忍着臭味试试,

可是永远都不会体会到的呢!

第二种,螺蛳粉。

螺蛳粉是广西柳州的特色小吃。

它是一种带汤的米粉,汤里面有螺蛳、酸笋、辣椒等。

酸笋是腌过的,有种臭臭的味道。

现在的年轻人很喜欢吃螺蛳粉,网上还可以买到干的螺蛳粉,

自己用热水泡开,再加上配料就可以吃了。

第三种,皮蛋。

皮蛋一般是用鸭蛋做的,把鸭蛋裹上石灰泥和盐腌制,

两、三个月以后,蛋清就会变成黑色半透明的果冻形状,

而蛋黄则是半凝固的状态,口感软糯。

皮蛋可以直接吃,可以蘸醋和辣酱,也可以用来熬粥,都非常美味。

第四种,豆汁儿。

豆汁儿是北京人喜欢吃的早餐。

它和豆浆类似,但是豆浆是用黄豆做的,而豆汁儿则是用绿豆做的。

豆汁儿的味道有些酸,一般人很难接受。

有人说,如果喝不完一碗豆汁儿,那肯定不是北京人。

第五种,臭鳜鱼

这是安徽省的美食。鳜鱼是一种淡水鱼,

一百多年前,为了防止鱼在运输时变质,

渔夫把盐涂满鱼的全身,然后放在木桶里发酵。

这个过程中,鱼肉变得紧实,散发出特殊的味道,

再用姜、蒜和酱油炒一下,当时的皇帝都爱吃呢!

你们国家有闻起来臭,吃起来香的食物吗?
