Chinese eating habits

[mr peanut]

slurping, burping is also common in Middle Eastern dining Etiquette, it shows your enjoying the meal

I heard the Koreans consider lifting the bowl off the table as poor manners? but most other asians drink from bowls and hold it up to their mouth for proper, more efficient eating

soup is often served with every meal, most traditional families make a pot of soup daily to go with the meals, and is often slurped from a small bowl , a common meal is a stir fry with fresh vegetables and a little meat, soup & rice for southern Chinese.

using chop sticks & rice bowls is perfect for asian cuisine thats usually cut into small pieces for sharing

thats good to know,in old days when oil is too expensive,the housewife will use a paint brush and dip in oil and then mark the wok,thats how much oil they have to stir fry.
One can also use lard from pig.
