[急求]一篇写中国菜的300字英语议论文

中国菜的选材非常丰富,有一句俗语称：“山中走兽云中燕,陆地牛羊海底鲜.”几乎所有能吃的东西,都可以做为中国菜的食材.但食材的选择关系到菜品的质量.

品种不同：做一些菜肴,需要不同品种的食材.比如北京烤鸭,用北京特有的填鸭做成；白斩鸡则用三黄鸡做成.这种鸡据说雏时被阉割,并喂一定量的花生.
部位区别：食材不同的部位被制作成不同的菜.比如家常菜“肉段”应用里脊制作.
要求鲜嫩：几乎所有中国菜要求食材鲜活,诸如“小炒肉”需将猪活活打死后取里脊肉,为的是食材鲜嫩可口.
随时代变化：例如北京烤鸭,以前是越肥越好,现代则倾向用瘦肉鸭.不再利用受保护动物和珍贵植物做食材.扩大对昆虫等利用方法,引进其他食材来源,例如扩大食用蝎和蝗虫,引进法国蜗牛等.

味：通过食材的选择也可以增强食物的味道.比如虾饺中加入的虾脑.使饺子更加鲜美.
