广东省中山市2018-2019学年高一上学期英语期末考试试卷
Many countries have traditional dishes, made with special ingredients and prepared in a certain way. , and when tourists visit, these are the foods they want to try. But why are some foods more popular than others in certain areas?
Traditional ingredients
Typical recipes (菜谱) are usually made with native plant and animal products. For example, Korean dishes often include rice and soybeans because both plants are native to East Asia and grow well in hot, wet areas. In contrast, wheat grows well in drier areas, like the Middle East, where bread is a common staple (主要的) food. , whereas inland cuisines tend to use more meat from farm animals.
Food preservation
Local cuisines often depend on how people traditionally prepared food for storage. In warm weather, meat and fish can go off quickly, so they must be cooked right away or preserved for later. , For that reason, modem Norwegian cuisine includes many smoked foods.
Cooking techniques
. In China, people often fry food in a deep metal pan or steam it in a basket over hot water. In Morocco, people cook traditional dishes in a special pot called a tajine, while in parts of India, people use a large oven, called a tandoor. And some local dishes aren't cooked at all.
Imported (进口的) ingredients
Sometimes local cuisines include ingredients that originally came from another place. , while many Russian dishes are made with potatoes. However, all of these ingredients were brought to Europe from South America in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. But now they are common around the world.
A. Seafood is often a key ingredient in coastal areas
B. There is a danger that local food traditions will be lost
C. Many different cooking techniques are used around the world
D. For example, Italian dishes often include tomatoes and peppers
