Chinese Food Menu for Homemade FeastChinese food menu for homemade feast In holidays, festivals, or at weekend, it can be fun and relaxing to serve your guests with your own homemade dishes. However, to make each occasion a success, a good planning is indispensable. First, you must have in mind how many to serve and how much to cook. Basically, the number of dishes should match the number of guests.I.E.,eight people with eight dishes, excluding soup, snacks, ( or main food). Always be generous to your food,and you don't want to starve your guests. Second, decide upon the Chinese food menu. Usually, a set Chinese food menu should include cold dishes (kind of appetizer in western food), hot dishes, meat&sea food, soup,snacks, and main food (rice or cooked wheaten food, sometimes replaced by snacks). From view of health, food prepared should be compatible. The nutrition contained should be complementary but avoid conflict match. And seasonal food is fresh. The method of cooking. Guang Zhou Style is light. Shanghai Style is sweet. Beijing Style is heavy flavor. Seafood and meat are steamed or braised. For people with a "spicy" tooth, dishes that are baked, stewed, stir-fried,sauted or deep-fried are preferable. It is definitely a good idea to add in some appetizing dishes or a light salad among heavy and rich dishes. In case there are children and elderly people among your guests, milder food cooked tender is more appropriate. Third, plan your cooking and arrange your time with care. Prepare dishes that can be cooked ahead of time such as meat, cold dishes (Chinese salad), and choose recipes that are easy to assemble. Not only will you find work a lot easier, you can also spare time socializing with your guests in and out of the kitchen. A homemade feast may involve a lot of work, but when you and your guests enjoy the food and those special moments spent together in your house, you will find that all your efforts are just worth it.
