CNN評選出的這14道中國菜 讓留學生們眼淚口水一起流

留學在外的時候你最想念家鄉的哪道菜?

閑來無事的CNN評選出了留學生最想念的14道中國菜or小吃,除了耳熟能詳的蘭州拉麵,白斬雞,麻辣小龍蝦, 「食尚」新貴哈爾濱紅腸,腌篤鮮相繼上榜,然而,這份新出爐的名單也在吃貨界掀起了軒然大波,引發華人圈史無前例的統一大吐槽!

在外求學時,想吃上一口正宗的「祖國媽媽的味道」,踏破鐵鞋也難以找到!倒是偶爾不經意間飄來的一股來路不明,相似而不同的熟悉味道,最是能勾起內心深處對故鄉某個地方的深深懷念……

讓我們來看看CNN都盤點了哪些美食,順便學學正確的英文說法~請自備紙巾,中途用來擦擦眼淚和口水……

NO.1

Proper street kebabs

街邊烤串

擼串可以稱為人類共同的樂趣,從北到南,從東到西,中國怕是沒有那個地區的夜市上沒有烤串這個東西。北京的簋街,上海的雲南南路,還有南京的明瓦廊,都是吃貨心中的聖地~

In places like Guijie in Beijing, Yunnan Nan Lu in Shanghai and Mingwalang in Nanjing, foodies can sample all sorts of freshly cooked skewers while witnessing the ultimate in food theater.

北方的羊肉,南方的海鮮,只有你想不到的,沒有不能烤的,每一口都是美味在舌尖的綻放。

Every bite of Chinas street kebabs is a combination of good food and a street-side buzz unique to the country.

NO.2

Spicy crayfish

麻辣小龍蝦

小龍蝦的盛名,不在於肉多,而在於味道的鮮美及口感的爽嫩。

From spring to early autumn, crayfish-night-outs have become a ritual for many. Groups of friends find a jam-packed stall, sit on tiny plastic stools and order a bucket or two of bright red crayfish. No chopsticks needed -- digging in with the hands is preferred.

在狂熱的夏天和朋友相約路邊,三斤龍蝦,兩瓶啤酒,怕是沒有更令人嚮往的夏夜了吧~

The preferred beverage to go with these tasty freshwater lobsters? Ice cold Chinese beer -- Reeb, Tsingtao, Yanjing, depending on the city.

NO.3

Lamb hot pot

肥羊火鍋

比起四川的麻辣火鍋和廣東的滋補火鍋,北方孩子們對這種傳統的銅鍋更加情有獨鍾。

Outside of China, spicy Sichuan hot pot and nourishing Cantonese hot pot are well known. But in China, a country closely linked to Mongolian nomads, heavy and hearty lamb hot pot is hugely popular, especially in the north during the bitterly cold winter.

北京寒冷的冬雪中,涮上一盤熱騰騰的小肥羊,凍得通紅的雙手和已經結冰了的心靈都被伺候的服服帖帖!

Although a variety of meats, seafood and vegetables can be cooked, the star of the meal is plate after plate of wafer-thin lamb slices.

我可以不懷念我的老師,也可以不懷念我的同學,但我卻忍不住懷念暖心的銅鍋~

NO.4

Guilin rice noodles

桂林米粉

這種存在於街頭的小吃可謂是神一般的存在~

別看它裝在一個小小的碗里,吃上一口,可謂欲仙欲死,每個城市都會根據當地的口味進行改良。

There are noodles stalls everywhere in Guilin and surrounding areas. Locals like to mix the silky noodles and ingredients in a spicy and sour brine then eat them dry;or savor the whole combination in the beef stock.

無論你身在何方,只要是中國人,怕是都會懷念這熟悉的味道。

NO.5

Yan Du Xian soup

腌篤鮮

江浙滬「包郵區」的特產腌篤鮮,待春筍剛上市的時候和鹹肉、百葉結一起切片燉湯,那滋味,簡直鮮得掉了眉毛~

Yan Du Xian is a nutritious soup known as the great comfort food of the Yangtze River Delta in early spring. Its a typical homey dish -- restaurants serve it, but the best always comes from a loving mom.

NO.6

Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles

蘭州拉麵

蘭州拉麵、沙縣小吃、黃燜雞米飯,這三家不分不離的好兄弟竟然只有這碗面上榜。

In whats usually a makeshift open kitchen, formidable Islamic noodle masters beat, fold and pull a flour-based dough, turning it into hair-thin noodles faster than most people can decide what to order.

但不得不說蘭州拉麵從湯到面都能喚醒舌頭上每一顆味蕾,用不多的價錢買到如此可口的佳肴,雖在國內時常常鄙視它,可出國後對其還真的甚是懷念!

A classic bowl of hand-pulled noodles comes with beef broth, slices of beef, coriander and spring onions.

NO.7

Candied haw/tong hu lu

糖葫蘆

喜慶的顏色,晶瑩剔透的外衣,糖葫蘆可以說是每個北方孩子兒時的最愛。

This is an iconic snack in northern China, especially in Beijing.

加之後人的改良,冰糖葫蘆不僅有山楂版,還有更多水果乾果加入這個大家庭...一個北方孩子來到南方都會懷念的東西更不用說出國後該多麼想念了……

Sold by the stick, the dessert-to-go tastes great and looks greater -- bright red haws line up on a skewer in auspicious shapes, their sugary outer layers glimmering in the light.

NO.8

Stinky tofu

臭豆腐

聞著臭吃著香,恨它的人說它的味道像米田共,像臭襪子,但愛它的恨不得頓頓拿它當主食。

Despite its underwhelming appearance and sharp smell, stinky tofu has a pleasant texture -- crispy on the outside, tender inside.

外酥里嫩,可干炸,可作湯,離家久了,即使是這來自遠方的「怪味」,也會成為夢中想吃吃不到的珍惜物件兒。

Fried, braised, streamed or grilled -- stinky tofu is delicious no matter how its prepared. Somewhat similar to cheese, its an acquired taste or one that perhaps you have to grow up with to fully appreciate.

NO.9

Shanghai hairy crab

大閘蟹

想當初在家時,每到金秋時節,爸爸都會買來十隻大閘蟹蒸了上桌。

For Shanghainese, autumn isnt complete without a steamed, roe-laden hairy crab.

配上薑汁和醋,蟹黃的金色和紅透了的蟹殼交相輝映成記憶中最美麗的故鄉。

Every year the city hosts an influx of serious epicures from around the Sinoshpere who come to taste its legendary food signature.

NO.10

Duck blood soup with vermicelli

鴨血粉絲湯

作為古都南京的招牌美食,想必鴨血粉絲湯可是深入人胃,鴨血去腥,撒上小把香菜,油豆腐、細粉絲,暖進人心的熱湯一碗~

Peking roast duck is only one of many outstanding duck dishes in China. For true fans of fowl, however, the city to be is actually Nanjing, capital of Jiangsu Province, and onetime capital of the Ming Dynasty as well as the Republic of China.

對於江蘇的姑娘小伙兒們來說,還有什麼比這更治癒的么?

NO.11

Harbin red sausage

哈爾濱紅腸

雖說東北菜有很多亂燉,但我們也有精緻的哈爾濱紅腸。

Although traditional sausages in China are wind-dried and much sweeter than their Western counterparts, Harbin red sausages are smoked and have evolved from Lithuanian sausages. The texture is more tender than salami, firmer than an American hotdog and drier than cooked British sausages.

真不是虛名,這個東西中餐洋餐都能做,儘管歐洲許多國家都盛產香腸,但那些東西,和紅腸相比,總覺得差了些味道。

NO.12

Sugar-fried chestnuts

糖炒栗子

小時候第一次見到鐵鍋中翻炒的黝黑的栗子,總覺得不是人吃的東西。

For this ever-popular autumn snack, chefs fry chestnuts (which are cut open) in an enormous wok filled with black sand and granulated sugar. When properly done,theyre soft, sweet and extremely fragrant.

剝開一顆後,金黃軟糯的栗子頓時散發出誘人的香氣,自此之後,逢人便提,自己最愛吃的零食是栗子~

Although chestnuts can be found all over the world, the best ones for this popular snack come from the regions around Beijing, especially the Fangshan area.

可惜,這種粗獷而熟悉的味道在走出中國之後,便再難尋到。

NO.13

Sichuan boiled bullfrog

水煮牛蛙

水煮系列以及它老家的各色火鍋,確實令人迷之嚮往~

There are a variety of ways to cook bullfrogs in different parts of the country, but shui zhu -- a cooking technique from Sichuan cuisine -- has gained widespread popularity.

暫且就將之歸為川菜吧。

Its an unbeatable sharing dish for a big group. Its most satisfying with a bowl of white rice.

NO.14

cold chopped chicken

白斬雞

國外炸雞烤雞,無論說的多天花亂墜,在一個中國人心中,自是比不上鮮嫩多汁的白斬雞。將雞煮至嫩,然後剁碎,再配上鮮美醬料……

Spring chickens are boiled till tender, then chopped up and served with a dipping sauce. The chunky meat is nice, but the tastiest bits are actually the bones, which locals love to suck. Theyre even yummier with the magic of the sweet, sour and gingery sauce.

說到這隻雞,我的眼眶怎麼就濕了呢?

......

儘管這14道菜中的有些確實很有代表性,但它並不能餵飽所有中國留學生的胃,像西安的羊肉泡饃、河南的胡辣湯、重慶的火鍋……這麼多有代表性的食物都並未在榜上。

畢竟中華美食博大精深,它概括不全也可原諒,身處異鄉的留學生們,又有哪道菜是最令你們想家的呢?
