yoroshiku onegai shimasu 2 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 And what is "Sichuan cuisine" then? Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Kentucky at Christmas!!!!!! Now there's an idea. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Szechuan cuisine, Szechwan cuisine, or Sichuan cuisine (Chinese: å››å·èœ or å·èœ) is a style of Chinese cuisine originating in Sichuan Province of southwestern China famed for bold flavors, particularly the pungency and spiciness resulting from liberal use of garlic and chili peppers, as well as the unique flavour of the Sichuan peppercorn (花椒). Although the region is now romanized as Sichuan, the cuisine is still sometimes spelled 'Szechuan' or 'Szechwan' in the West. There are many local variations of Sichuan cuisine within Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality, which was politically part of Sichuan until 1997. The four best known regional sub-styles are Chongqing style, Chengdu style, Zigong style, and Buddhist vegetarian style. So now you know! Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Szechuan in Japan is ebi-chili, ma-bo-do-fu, hoi kou rou (pork with cabbage stirfry), and tantan-men (chili ramen) I think. Link to post Share on other sites
