British college students' canteen food, netizens: the dishes are very exquisite, but I can't eat it!
Britain, once the sun never sets in the empire, but it is called by the world: "gastronomic desert", the world's three major cuisines are French cuisine, Turkish cuisine, and Chinese cuisine, but there is no British cuisine.
The same is true in European markets, where everyone has heard of French, Italian, Spanish but basically no English.
Today we will take a look at the canteen food of British universities, and see what is eaten in this country known as the "gastronomic desert"?
Zhang Qin, who studied in the Uk, often posted her dishes in the British university canteen in the circle of friends. The dishes in the British university canteen are also mainly light, and the British do not like spicy, do not like greasy food, and do not like stir-fry.
In order to provide the body with unneeded nutrition, the British people eat relatively simply, mainly bread in daily life, supplemented by various vegetables and meat.
In this university canteen, like the domestic canteen, the canteen should also be the aunt chef cooking, but they do not eat rice, do not need to eat rice, only need to cook.
This is a cauliflower made of breadcrumbs and curry sauce, such a delicacy is common in British canteens, the price is equivalent to 35 yuan, for the monthly salary of 20,000 or 30,000 Britons, this price is not expensive.
However, for many international students, the price of this dish is too expensive, and Zhang Qin's meal fee needs to cost nearly 5,000 yuan every month.
In the British canteen, the most common food dishes of college students, the most common are bacon, fried chicken nuggets, sausage ham, pork belly, cream, such a dish, the price needs more than 90 yuan.
Zhang Qin rarely eats such a rich dish, the price is too expensive, not cost-effective, in the British canteen for half a year, Zhang Qin lost nearly 430 pounds, each meal seems to be very rich, but in fact, in the end can not eat enough.
When the British eat, they like to eat with English milk tea, or juice, red wine together, in this university canteen, the biggest difference with the country is that you can eat while drinking red wine.
Green peas, is Zhang Qin's most common vegetable in the canteen, the price of green peas is not expensive, but the price of meat is not cheap, a piece of brine beef price needs nearly 50 yuan.
Potato fries, cauliflower, eggs these three kinds of canteen, is also a regular on the British table, like people like raw frying, whether it is eggs or steak pork chops like raw fried to eat.
Fried food, in addition to fries and burgers, other is not common, the price of broccoli in the UK is not cheap, Zhang Qin said, in the UK many vegetables are more expensive than meat, in the eyes of the British, vegetables are healthier.
Steak, cauliflower, small bread and a glass of red wine have become the favorite set meal for many canteen student couples, and the lowest price for such a dinner requires 120 yuan.
The British way of life is fast, so they are not so demanding of food, and they are more willing to spend more time outside, such as traveling, such as going to bars and drinks.
When it comes to food, it's okay to make it up.
After reading these dishes in the British university canteen, I finally understood that "Gourmet Desert" is indeed not a white name! In general, the British are actually not good at cooking, the seasoning is more limited, they eat more lightly, they like the original taste of the food, do not like excessive processing.
Over and over again on those dishes, Zhang Qin said that eating in the canteen for a week, there are three days of dishes are the same, and even a dish every day, such as mashed potatoes, Fries.
No wonder The UK is known as the "food desert".
