Sichuan cuisine is so oily, but why do you think there are so few fat people in Sichuan?

The first thing everyone sees in spicy hot pot is the spicy red oil floating on the surface! I have to mention here that the red oil on the surface mainly contains rapeseed oil, chicken fat, butter, lard and other oils. These oils are refined from various spices, including more than 20 kinds of spices. Carefully brewed, its main function is to enhance the flavor. Although hot pot oil is very heavy, not many people gain weight from eating hot pot, right?

In Sichuan cuisine, there has always been a famous saying: "A big pot has a lot of oil, and the salt and MSG make it lumpy." Although it is just a joke, it also expresses the essence of the oil in our Sichuan cuisine. Got it! And our Jianghu cuisine is characterized by its heavy oiliness, spicy stimulation, and numbing comfort! But you generally won’t gain weight just by eating our Jianghu cuisine, unless the Jianghu cuisine is paired with beer and you stay up late without exercising for a long time!

Our home cooking! It’s not all about spicy oil! We also have home-cooked meals that are light and refreshing! For example, we have some light ways to cook pork, chicken, fish, rabbit, beef, mutton, etc., such as steaming, stewing, stir-frying, cooking with sauce, and making a refreshing pickled cabbage flavor. They are neither spicy nor oily! And our Sichuan cuisine chefs can do the same! The reason why Sichuan cuisine gives everyone the impression of being spicy and oily is just one of the many characteristics of Sichuan cuisine, and it is one of the characteristics that other cuisines do not have!

There are dishes with a lot of oil in Sichuan cuisine, but there are also dishes that are light and less oily! And it is certainly impossible for our ordinary families to use gas every day for free! In addition, Chongqing and Sichuan are mostly mountainous areas, so we climbed up and down hills and exercised a lot! Where did so many fat people come from? Although there are fat people, most of them are pigs, either because of physical problems or because they have too many social activities. They eat and drink every day. It is difficult not to gain weight in such a life!
