According to our TCM health preserving theory, we should have a good breakfast, that is to say, we should have nutrition, protein, vitamins, various trace elements and energy, so that we can start a day's physical fitness. But there is another important theory for breakfast, and that is? Light? !
Because our stomach is empty after 8- 10 hours of sleep, it can be said that gastric acid accumulates and the stomach is empty. At this time, it is best to eat some mild liquid foods to wake up the stomach, such as porridge, soup and soup, which can also protect the gastrointestinal mucosa and promote the absorption function of the spleen and stomach. But the reason why the breakfast in Sichuan is incomprehensible to outsiders is that their breakfast runs counter to these health preserving theories.
As we all know, Sichuan cuisine is mainly spicy, and spicy hot pot and all kinds of shabu-shabu are spicy and delicious. Even breakfast is mixed with spicy taste, such as spicy noodles, red oil and fat sausage noodles, green pepper and spicy sauce residue noodles and so on. At first glance, it's all spicy red oil. Even the conventional bean curd, egg cake and wonton will add strong Chili oil. Although these breakfasts are appetizing, it is inevitable that many people will eat them on an empty stomach. Unable to digest? . But I'm afraid Sichuan locals have long been used to these heavy breakfast.
This is breakfast in Sichuan. Is the spicy taste of Sichuanese really integrated into their diet bit by bit, even if it is a light breakfast? Not spicy or unhappy? Ok, so it's normal for outsiders not to understand a steaming bowl of spicy red oil breakfast.
