| Autumn is the best season for crabs. The hairy crabs (大闸蟹)are quite fat and tasty at this time of year. The best crabs come from Yangcheng Lake in Jiangsu. Many people use eight silver tools including chopsticks, a pair of scissors and a small hammer (锤子)to eat crab meat. |
| Caviar (鱼子酱)is not common in most people's daily life. But if you're going to try it, Russian caviar may be your best choice. Caviar is made of fish eggs. It sells at a high price. If you want to get the fresh juicy taste, don't cook it —just eat raw caviar. You may also eat it with bread and salad. |
| Who says the British only have fish and chips? Beef Wellington is a dish that they can truly be proud of. An expensive cut of beef is covered with a mixture first. Next comes another piece of ham (火腿) and pastry (面糊).Then it is covered with eggs. Baked (烘焙) until it is golden yellow, beef Wellington tastes crispy outside and juicy inside. |
| Sukiyaki (寿喜锅),or Japanese beef hot pot, is one of the most popular dishes in Japan. People cook beef and vegetables in soup with sweet and salty tastes. It is a perfect dinner for family or to enjoy with guests. In Sukiyaki, you need thin pieces of beef. The best is the Kobe beef. It's very expensive but amazing. |
