Why is Sichuan food so fucking good?
chinamen had to learn how to make rotting corpses they found in a rice paddy taste good, so it's ever better these days with fresh dog and female fetus meat
>>7716138
harsh
>>7716118
do these fags even make jouzza?
Sichuan king of Asia, French king of Europe. Who gets the Americas and Africa?
>why is it so good?
Stir-fried meat-and-veggie dishes are hard to fuck up.
>>7716219
Mexico and Ethiopia
>>7716245
they're actually incredibly easy to fuck up
>>7716246
>not picking cajun
m8 mexican sucks
>>7716219
Brazil and Ethiopia.
>>7716448
Found the fucking Brazilian, only Brazilians like anything from your country

>>7716821
American here, I'd rather eat Brazilian food than central American, Colombian, Cuban, Dominican, Ecuadorean, or Venezuelan. Or flyover food but that goes without saying
If I had to pick one other besides Mexico, Brazil would be on the short list but I'd probably end up going with Guyanese. Peru is a meme and people will get over it, I first tasted it in 1998 and I was over it fairly quickly
>>7717391
>be American
>use the term "flyover"
Choose one.
>>7716118
Chinaman here, long, bitter winters and hot n' humid summers ensure your food is hot enough to warm your soul and get you to sweat to cooldown
>>7717603
that doesn't make any sense buddy the term was invented by people on the coasts of the USA not europoors
>>7717848
As far as I'm concerned anyone who doesn't drive an AMERICAN pickup truck and eat AMERICAN food and have an AMERICAN addiction to either oxycodone or crystal meth and live at least a 7 hour drive from any major body of water that person is a traitor to AMERICA and should be executed for TREASON
>>7716219
I've heard good things about Peruvian cuisine on here but it's probably just Peruvians.
>>7716280
Mexican>>>>>>>>>>one region of US
Ordered some Sichuan chicken at a restaurant in Atlanta last week and they handed me a plate of sloppy vegetables. looked nothing like that. I'm starting to think they couldn't understand me
>>7718348
Peruvians decided in the last decade or so that they're foodies, and since foreigners are impressed by raw fish and are blown away by the discovery that Latin Americans can have ethnicity other than indigenous and Spanish, the buzzfeed crowd is taken in by their collective delusion.
It also helps that the neighbors' cuisine literally consists of greasy rice and bananas, making the Peruvians kind of like Chicagoans
>>7716821
Half Brazilian here. So fucking true. Mexico is king of the Americas.
>>7716118
For me it's boiled fish, the best sichuan dish. I fucking the bold, spicy flavors of sichuan food
>>7718758
>I fucking the bold, spicy flavors of sichuan food
I hope you wore a condom
>>7718758
>>7717871
>major body of water
do the great lakes count?
>>7718481
>Nigglanta
Im guessing they only have the standard Chinky's there for the most part, dunno why you'd expect something that wasnt "orientalized" nigger feed

I went to a senegalese restaurant once
the food was really good but the service was slow and they were out of half the stuff on the menu.
>>7717391
>If I had to pick one other besides Mexico, Brazil would be on the short list but I'd probably end up going with Guyanese
Never had Guyanese food, whats it like? I imagine similar to Jamaican/Trini? Does it even exist in the US outside of NYC?
>>7718979
Cuck
>>7718979
Racism aside, he's right. Atlanta is pretty shit for food that isn't deep fried.
>>7719117
There was a Senegalese bistro for like six months in NYC at 21st and 7th, was it that one? Because your description was exactly what they were like
>>7716219
United States wins the Americas (with Mexico a close 2nd) and Egypt wins Africa.
>>7719585
nah it was in west philly
>>7717688
Sichuan doesn't have long and bitter winters, it's mainly humidity so people eat spicy food to sweat it out. Learn how to china next time.
>>7719071
Coming from a Ecuadorian, no. Mexican is King.
>>7719662
No. Mexican is #1. It has great traditional, street food and fine dining. Everything you need in a cuisine.

The word you're struggling to spell is plebeian, you fucking bottom feeder.
>>7722227
Thats how pleb's spell it. Away with your patricean snobery
Who here dan dan noodles? This a dan dan thread now.

>cover it in hot chilies
wow that was hard
>>7723204
>fly-over-fuck, the post
Real Sichuan is the shit. Chicken thighs breaded and flash fried in garlic, scallion, and sichuan peppercorn, which used to be fucking BANNED.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sichuan_pepper
This shit is no joke. Your mouth goes numb and suddenly your ass is in flavortown with Guy Fieri standing over you, pants around his ankles, cock at half-mast, penetrating your taste-buds with delectable mind-numbing sichuan spice.
>>7723502
It's not even a chile either
I wish god would quit slacking off and just destroy flyover land with infinite tornadoes. It's not like He lacks the ability
>>7716118
Because of this god-tier spice.

I had this the other day in the northeast. Best tripe I ever ate.
>>7718481
eat at a real Chinese Szechuan restaurant you fuck.
>>7723122
Made Dan Dan Noodles for my family today. So simple yet so delicious.
>>7716219
Argentina for Americas
>>7723574
That's tendon in the picture, but tripe is often prepared the same way.
>>7723614
My bad. Served cold right?
>>7719125
Imagine if Trinidad had an illegitimate baby with the Philippines
That's Guyanese food
>>7723630
Yep. Bathed in chile oil dressing like some kind of animal salad.
You gotta toast those sichuan peppercorns before you grind them btw. Make sure there or no seeds in the motherfuckers either. Just a couple tips from another Sichuan-fag.
>>7723502
Sometimes when I crave Sichuan food I just eat a teaspoon of Lao Gan Ma out of the jar for that tongue numbing goodness.

Gross simplification:
The chemical that makes most peppers spicy is capsaicin, the chemical that is present in sichuan peppers is hydroxy-alpha-sanshool. Capsaicin activates the heat receptors in your mouth, which is why it feels like your mouth is burning, because from your nervous system's perspective it is. Hydroxy-alpha-sanshool interacts with a separate set of receptors, a series which are associated with touch, which is why you feel kinda numb.
ITT: Americans unironically claiming their country has better food than Mexico.
seriously tho. the combination of spicy and numbing - Ma-La - is God Tier.

French food is fucking too poncy. It did pave the way for all modern and contempory dining, however.
>>7724703
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sichuan_pepper
does it look like this?
>>7724886
Yep, that's it. Still would like to know how hot the chilies used in OP's pic are..
>>7724703
They're dried chili's. You're really not supposed to eat them according to the owner of the place I go to. I eat them, but I also know that I'm going to piss fire out of my asshole later

>>7718481
Fellow Atlantafag here, you're pretty much shit out of luck for finding decent Sichuan food in this fucking city.
Jia is alright, but it's seriously not spicy enough. There's a few places on Buford that are okay, but half of them are owned by Koreans and are still lacking in spice compared to the real thing.
>>7724460
there are no heat receptors in your mouth. You can't taste "heat" its the sensation of pain being chemically activated
