Sejarah Dinsum

Seperti yang di katakan wikipedia


Dim sum merupakan sejenis masakan Cina yang merupakan hidangan ringan lingkungan luas yang dihidang bersama teh Cina.Yum cha (yang secara harfiah "meminum teh") adalah istilah yang digunakan untuk menjelaskan pengalaman makanan keseluruhan, khususnya dalam Kantonis sezaman. Ia juga dihidangkan pada waktu pagi hingga tengah hari di kedai makan Cina dan di kedai makan dim sum khas di mana hidangan lazim disediakan sepanjang hari. Hidangan disediakan dalam bahagian kecil dan termasuk dagingmakanan laut, dan sayur-sayuran, dan juga pencuci mulut dan buah-buahan. Hidangan ini biasanya dihidang dalam bakul pengukus kecil atau di atas pinggan kecil. Sesetengah keluarga Cina suka berkumpul untuk hidangan dim sum pada perayaan khas seperti Hari Ibu atau Tahun Baru Cina. Juga, ibu bapa Cina suka membawa anak mereka di sana hari Ahad untuk bertemu dan berbual dengan datuk nenek mereka. Sesetengah orang membawa surat khabar dengan mereka dan membincang berita dengan keluarga mereka. Sesetengah kedai makan Cina memberikan potongan harga pada menu hidangan yang dibeli sebelum 11:00 pagi dan potongan waktu teh selepas 2:00 petang untuk menggalakkan pelanggan mengelak dari datang pada waktu puncak makan tengah hari.


Sejarah

Dim Sum biasanya berkaitan dengan tradisi lebih lama Yum Cha (meminum teh), yang mempunyai akarnya pada para pengembara di Laluan Sutera kuno yang memerlukan suatu tempat untuk berehat. Oleh itu rumah-rumah teh didirikan di sepanjang tepi jalan. Para petani luar bandar, letih seleaps bekerja keras di ladang, akan juga pergi ke rumah teh untuk suatu waktu berehat petang teh. Pada mulanya, ia dianggap tidak sesuai untuk menggabungkan teh dengan makanan oleh kerana orang mempercayai bahawa ia akan menambah berat badan. Orang kemudian mendapati bahawa teh dapat bantu memudahkan pencernaan, jadi pemilik rumah teh bermula menambah pelbagai snek.[perlu rujukan]
Seni berkaitan masak-memasak unik Dim Sum berasal dengan Kantonis di China selatan, yang selama berkurun-kurun mengubahkan Yum Cha dari penundaan merehatkan dan pengalaman waktu makan yang riang dan bising. Di Hong Kong, dan dalam banyak bandar raya dan bandar di pronvinsi Guangdong, banyak kedai makan Cina bermula menghidang dim sum seawal lima pagi. Ia adalah suatu tradisi orang yang tua untuk berkumpul untuk menikmati hidangan dim sum selepas senaman pagi, sambil membaca surat khabar pagi. Untuk ramai orang di China selatan, yum cha dianggap sebagai hari keluarga hujung minggu. Selari dengan tradisi ini, restauran dim sum biasanya hanya menghidangkan dim sum sehingga lewat petang (sekitar waktu rehat kopi 3 petang Barat), dan menghidangkan masakan Kantonis jenis lain pada waktu petang. Kini, pelbagai barang dim sum juga dijual sebagai makanan bungkus untuk para pelajar dan pekerja pejabat yang sibuk.
Sementara dim sum (menyentuh hati) dahulunya bukanlah satu makanan utama, tetapi hanya sebagai hidangan ringan, dan oleh itu hanya bermakna menyentuh hati, ia kini sebuah makanan asasi budaya makanan Cina, khususnya di Hong Kong. Para pegawai kesihatan kini mengkritik jumlah tinggi lemak dan garam ("sodium") dalam sesetengah hidangan dim sum, dan memberi amaran bahawa dim sum kukus tidak seharusnya dianggap berkhasiat.[1] Para pegawai kesihatan mencadangkan meimbangkan hidangan berlemak dengan sayur-sayuran masak, tanpa kuah.[2]

Rencana utama: Yum cha
The drinking of tea is as important to dim sum as the food. A popular tea which is said to aid in digestion is bolay (po laipu erh), which is a strong, fermented tea. Chrysanthemumoolong (wu lung) and green tea can be served as well.
It is customary to pour tea for others during dim sum before filling one's own cup. A custom unique to the Cantonese is to thank the person pouring the tea by tapping the bent index and middle fingers together on the table, which symbolises 'bowing' to them.
This is said to be analogous to the ritual of bowing to someone in appreciation. The origin of this gesture is described anecdotally: an unidentified Emperor went to yum cha with his friends, outside the palace; not wanting to attract attention to himself, the Emperor was disguised. While at yum cha, the Emperor poured his companion some tea, which was a great honour. The companion, not wanting to give away the Emperor's identity in public by bowing, instead tapped his index and middle finger on the table as sign of appreciation.
Given the number of times tea is poured in a meal, the tapping is a timesaver in loud restaurants or lively company, as an individual being served might be speaking to someone else or have food in their mouth. Leaving the pot lid open is another common way of attracting a server's attention.

Jenis-jenis teh cina
Tea is produced in over 20 Chinese provinces. Chinese tea bushes (Camellia sinensis) are cultivated in the mountain areas of tropical and subtropical regions or whereever there is proper climate, sufficient humidity, adequate sunshine and fertile soil.
Chinese tea is classified in many ways, e.g., quality, method of preparation or place of production. The main processing methods include fermentation (oxidation), heating, drying and addition of other ingredients like flowers, herbs or fruits. These help to develop the special flavor of the raw tea leaves.
Green tea - Freshly picked leaves only go through heating and drying processes, but do not undergo fermentation. This enables the leaves to keep their original green color and retain most natural substances like polyphenols and chlorophyll contained within the leaves. This kind of tea is produced all over China and is the most popular category of tea. Representative varieties include Dragon Well (Long Jing) and Biluochun from Zhejiang and Jiangsu Provinces respectively.
Red tea / black tea - The tea leaves are fully fermented giving them to have a strong flavor and dark color. In comparison to other tea categories, its flavor is longer lasting and it has the highest concentration of caffeine. This is most popular form of tea in south Asia and Europe.
Oolong tea - The tea leaves are partially fermented, imparting to them the characteristics of both green and black teas. Its taste is more similar to green tea than black tea, but has less a "grassy" flavor than green tea. The three major oolong-tea producing areas are on the southeast coast of China e.g. Fujian, Guangdong and Taiwan.
Pu-erh or Puer tea - The tea leaves have undergone years of fermentation, giving them an unique earthy flavor. This variety of tea is usually compressed into different shapes like bricks, discs and bowls.
[Scented tea] - There can be various mixtures of flowers with green tea, black tea or oolong tea. Flowers used include jasmine, gardenia, magnolia, grapefruit flower, sweet-scented osmanthus and rose. There are strict rules about the proportion of flowers to tea. Jasmine tea is the most popular type of scented tea in northern China.
Various preparation methods mean different teas have different bioactive substances. For example, green tea only has limited processing so it retains a relatively high content of natural ingredients, meaning that green tea has stronger anti-aging, anti-cancer and anti-bacterial properties. Oolong tea, which is partially fermented, is quite potent in breaking down protein and fat, aiding weight loss. Red tea that has undergone the full fermentation process has lost 90% of its polyphenols but retains its high caffeine content. [3]

Serving dim sum in a restaurant inHong Kong
Traditional dim sum includes various types of steamed buns such as cha siu baaudumplings and rice noodle rolls (cheong fun), which contain a range of ingredients, including beef, chicken, pork, prawns and vegetarian options. Many dim sum restaurants also offer plates of steamed green vegetables, roasted meats, congee porridge and other soups. Dessert dim sum is also available and many places offer the customary egg tart. Having a meal in a Chinese teahouse or a dim sum restaurant is known as yum cha (yam cha, 飲茶), literally "drinking tea", as tea is typically served with dim sum.
Dim sum can be cooked by steaming and frying, among other methods. The serving sizes are usually small and normally served as three or four pieces in one dish. It is customary to order family style, sharing dishes among all members of the dining party. Because of the small portions, people can try a wide variety of food.
Dim sum dishes can be ordered from a menu or sometimes the food is wheeled around on a trolley by servers. Traditionally, the cost of the meal is calculated based on the number, size, and sometimes color of the dishes left on the patron's table (more below). Some modern dim sum restaurants record the dishes on a bill at the table. Not only is this tidier, it also prevents patrons from cheating by concealing or stealing the plates. Servers in some restaurants use distinct stamps so that sales statistics for each server can be recorded.
