Chinese Cuisine is a term for styles of food originating in the regions of China, many of which have become extremely popular in other parts of the world — from Asia to the Americas, Australia, Western Europe and Southern Africa. Where there are historical immigrant Chinese populations, the style of food has evolved – for example, American Chinese cuisine and Indian Chinese cuisine are prominent examples of Chinese cuisine that has been adapted to suit local palates. In recent years, connoisseurs of Chinese have also sprouted in Eastern Europe and South Asia. The culinary Michelin Guide has also taken an interest in Chinese cuisine, establishing Hong Kong and Macao versions of its publication.

In most dishes in Chinese cuisine, food is prepared in bite-sized pieces, ready for direct picking up and eating. In traditional Chinese cultures, chopsticks are used at the table.

Traditional Chinese cuisine is also based on opposites, whereby hot balances cold, pickled balances fresh and spicy balances mild.

A. Use it the same way you would use a toasted sesame oil, it is just a milder flavour. Just don't use it to fry or saute.

Are most U.S. Chinese food restaurants truly authentic Chinese cuisine?
Q. I've read that most standard U.S. Chinese restaurants are FAR from "authentic" Chinese cuisine. I realize there are different provinces in China w/ particular cuisines, but most American Chinese restaurants offer so-called provincial dishes (e.g. "Hunan Chicken"- Hunan province). There are MANY good answers here. I live in Dallas, Texas- anyone know of "authentic" Chinese restaurants in my area?

A. Hi David, David the former chef here, in North America most of the so called Chinese restaurants have adapted certain types and styles of food to the local market, if you go to a large city like New York, San Francisco and here in Canada, Toronto and Vancouver, you will find more traditional restaurants. Mostly as the blended communitys strive to cook for the non-chinese markets and then there own, Like Dim Sum it is all pretty well what is serve in Hong Kong and China, as most non-chinese are a bit intimidated to try it. I go to the BBQ restauants here in Toronto, and I have been to the Hunan, Cantonese, Shanghiese and Monoglian places here to.
