3 Authentic Chinese Foods You Need to Know About

Did you know that ‘authentic’ Chinese food go beyond the usual dishes that originated in mainland China? Chinese immigrants went to all parts of the world and started cooking with local ingredients that were common in their new home, and this resulted to a long list of new authentic recipes. One of the most interesting fusions to ever happen is Hakka-Indian cooking. Salty, fragrant, and always delicious, Hakka food is a beautiful combination of authentic Chinese cooking methods and Indian ingredients. Interested in trying this type of cuisine? Here are the top 3 starter dishes you need to know about:

Authentic Chinese Hakka Noodles

These noodles might look like all other Chinese noodles, but the difference is in the taste and preparation. The best Hakka restaurants serve these noodles al dente with or without meat. The dish is completed by chopped spring onions, green chilies, finely chopped, garlic, and loads of vegetables (including carrots, bell peppers, cabbage, and cauliflower).

Authentic Hakka Salted Chicken

This is another must-try Hakka dish that is served by all of the best restaurants. The salt that is used to marinate the chicken brings out not only a smoother chicken texture but also a distinctly mouth-watering flavor. You can also get salted shrimp.

Hakka Hot Soup

Full of flavor and spice, the Hakka shot soup is based on chili, ginger, and pepper. It’s not only delicious—it is also believed to have many health benefits. This dish is believed to get rid of wind in the stomach while improving your blood circulation. There is nothing quite like indulging in a bowl of Hakka hot soup on a cold night or after a frustrating day at work. It will make you feel instantly better, too, if you are nursing a cold. Eat it in the restaurant or order it to go.
