Food Culture in Taiwan

[@furtherdefinitions1]

I lived in Taiwan for 2 years, the best food and the nicest people anywhere

[@lbch_youtube]

Taiwan is basically China without oppression…

[@BBB921]

I am from Belgium and live in Taiwan for 16 years now and the food here is trully amazing. It is a never ending evolution. Also, farmers here, are trully engineers. They have transform fruits, changing their shapes and taates always aiming for better. Amazing fruits, foods and people. Taiwan, I love you...I live here and I will die here! Thanks to all the hard work of these chefs, farmers and market salesmen, we are able not only to eat but enjoy fresh and delicious food!

After watching the Bite of China series by CCTV and the Japanology series by NHK, I decided to see if there were any such videos about Taiwanese food. And thats how I ended up here. Tbh I hope to see other fellow Asian countries hop onto this bandwagon. Or, at the very least, hope that someone would load such series onto KZbin. Malaysia, Vietnam, Korea, Philippines, Singapore, etc. Would be awesome to be able watch English dubbed tv series about their national cuisines.

沒錯，荷蘭人在台灣過，可是其實對台灣的飲食文化影響並不大，可以說根本沒有影響。反倒是沒有統治過台灣的東南亞人對台灣的飲食文化影響較荷蘭人大，可能因為地緣的關係。例如：有些調味料及烹飪手法很接近東南亞的。 根據烹飪歷史學家，四五百年前的西方人很多東西都生吃（當然，除了肉以外），沒有什麼調味及食前準備 。西方人的「飲食革命」是近百年，甚至是近五十多年前的事。舉兩個例子：1. 現代大餅（俗稱「披薩」）：源於美國 （由移民到美國的義大利人改良古代大餅而成）。至於最原始的古代大餅的發源地的問題，理論說法倒是不少。有人說是中國，有人說是中亞地區，甚至有人說是羅馬希臘等等。不論哪個理論說法，我們可以確定的一件事是，很多關於羅馬希臘的歷史紀載是西方這近百年來捏造出來的 （很多學者也已確實此事）。換句話說，非常不可靠。我個人認為，比較合情合理的理論是「中亞論」。也就是說，源於亞洲中部，後來傳入印度，中國，中東及義大利等地區。2. 豆漿｜豆奶｜豆腐：也是源於亞洲。連大眾普遍認為比「可口可樂」還西方的咖啡也是近幾百年前的事。 （咖啡： 源於中東，後傳入嘔洲，在四五百年前左右西方人才開始飲用。）

[@eightbighillman]

你該不會不知道台灣的稻米 甘蔗 番茄 豌豆(荷蘭豆)等許多農作物都是荷蘭從東南亞引進的吧? 水牛也是荷蘭人從東南亞引進, 影響台灣的飲食習慣可大的呢! 披薩當然是源於義大利, 那是古羅馬人將剩菜放在麵皮上烘烤, 給囚犯或奴隸吃的食物. 另外, 你說的"烹飪歷史學家，四五百年前的西方人很多東西都生吃（當然，除了肉以外），沒有什麼調味及食前準備 。" 是哪位烹飪歷史學家? 名字? 哪一國人? 怎麼說得出這些荒誕的謬論?

[@dazhizhe]

恕我直言，你犯了同日本人一樣的錯：非日則西。例如，日本到今天還是有些人以為咖哩和眾多調味料是西方的，只因為是由洋人引進的。沒錯，在日本料裡佔有一席之地的咖哩確實與歐洲人扯得上關係。你甚至可以說「歐洲人間接地影響到日本飲食文化」，但你不可以說「咖哩是源自歐洲的飲食文化」。談到咖哩時，正確的說法應該是「日本料理受到印度飲食文化的影響」，而非「日本料理受到歐洲飲食文化的影響」。以上兩點得釐清，不可混為一談。 證據顯示（包括考古學在中亞地區的發現），披薩的前身源於《古絲路》的中亞地區, 後來西傳到義大利。今天的披薩則是美國義大利後裔改良發明的（人類社會科學之「pizza effect」一詞因此而來）。若你認為美國義大利裔是美國人，那披薩就是美國人發明的；若你認為美國義大利裔是義大利人，披薩就是義大利人發明的。跟你一樣，很多人有「披薩當然是源於義大利」的錯誤想法，可能與「pizza」一詞有關，就好比多數人認為「ping pong」當然是源於中國一樣，兩者有著同工藝曲之妙。 有真正深入研讀西方史的國內外史學家都知，關於古羅馬的掌故多起筆於這近四五百年內；從史學的角度來看，來源極為不可靠；所有資料甚至有造假的可能（實際上，很多關於西方歷史的〝原始〞資料已被證實為偽文件了，例如關於古希臘的傳說），最多只能說是千年後之後人的想像罷了。除了義大利人外，在這偽歷史的作者群裡，當然也有意識到歷史之力量的近代德國人。至於為什麼這個謊言還繼續被流傳，理由則離不開種種政治和白人種族主義因素。 你提及的「那是古羅馬人將剩菜放在麵皮上烘烤, 給囚犯或奴隸吃的食物」，來源出處在哪兒？依據為近百年之文獻，還是當代文獻？可否被他國掌故證實（例：相對鄰近的古波斯文獻所證實）？是否能證明古羅馬人就是最早造食古大餅的民族？以上答案對古大餅源於羅馬一說都非常不利。 如果精通梵文的Dr.Schopen （美國白種人）和考古學家Dr. Chou（美國黃種人）的說法是正確的，歐洲的飲食革命應該是近一兩百年的事。更正確的說法應該如下： 「四五百年前的西方人很多東西都生吃（當然，除了肉以外），很少有調味；有調味的話，也多來自於中國、印度等古文明（經由所謂的 spice trade） 。在嚴重缺乏物資食材的北國，「民以食為天」只能是一種奢望。因此，食前準備並不是那麼重要。」 真正荒誕的謬論是沒有依據的他人故事，也就是關於「文化復興」前的西方歷史，亦「his-story」。 事實有時確實會讓一些人覺得難以置信。

[@eightbighillman]

Dazhizhe 調味料包括 Herb 和 Spice 兩類, 說西方人沒有什麼調味真會讓人笑掉大牙, 單單是紐約市古蹟 Cloister 後花園就種了歐洲人千百年來烹調使用的一百種 Herbs. 你講的"調味料"是 Spice 吧? 廢話! Spice 是熱帶和亞熱帶地區才能生長的調味料,中古世紀前的歐洲只能以天價買到從印度, 婆羅洲, 中亞, 非洲輾轉運來的 Spice, 當時英國胡椒是黃金價格的四倍. 這也是哥倫布說服西班牙女王展開向西航行到印度取得spice. 英王亨利八世在哥倫布發現新大陸時才一歲, 十八歲登基, 極力擴展大英帝國版圖, 本身是老饕, 他命令御廚二十四小時不熄火, 將從新領土取得的食材不斷研發菜色. 你才是犯了本位主義, "西方人的「飲食革命」是近百年，甚至是近五十多年前的事。", 即使你不認同意, 法國飲食文化普遍被認為是最美味的, 為了生存, 為了追求口感美味, 不管哪個地方哪個民族, 都各自發展有其特色, 重點是, 荷蘭人對台灣的飲食文化影響可是極重要的, 不是你一竿打翻成"其實對台灣的飲食文化影響並不大，可以說根本沒有影響."

[@dazhizhe]

eightbighillman 四五百年前的〝傳統〞西方料理當然有用到herb和spice，但多源於古文明（例如古印度的黑胡椒），會笑掉大牙的只有可能是對自己原始的過去有嚴重誤解及幻想的西方白人。話說回來，可能我之前的用詞有點過，應該說：荷蘭人對台灣的影食文化影響並沒有人們想像的那麼大。請你在讀一遍我的留言，你的一些個人想法並不與最初的論點起衝突。你說的沒錯，在受到古老文明的影響下，人們口中的西方料理確實改良了許多，不但有食前準備，而且有創新料理出現（例如你提及的法國飲食文化）。說到法國飲食文化，就不得不提東南亞及中東飲食文化，因為法國眾多調味料及烹飪手法很接近這些地區的傳統飲食文化。講難聽一點，就是殖民東南亞時期copy來的，只是換上個法名而已。法國的飲食革命確實革命得很徹底。西方人不是很講究所謂的智慧財產權嗎？

I've tried it, the vegetable and the gelatin texture is what makes it, also you add a bit of ketchup and hot sauce to it, you can technically make it at home, just look up a recipe online, its not hard to make, basically a scramble egg with oysters veggies and corn starch.

[@MindyMa]

Although one can make oyster omelette at home, it is hard to reach the temperature to make it fresh and crispy at the edges. And each stand's special sweet-vinegar-spicy sauce is really great with the omelette.
