Who has the most difficult food to make?

Some of these words I did not realize exist. Thank you for enlightening my vocabulary

>A shitpost with a great point

This paradox is vexing.

For me, it's the McChicken.

It's not that hard to reproduce the taste, but getting it exactly the same is difficult to impossible because a lot of them use custom cooking methods that people won't have at home, like pressure fryers.

Chinese food is hard? Take some random shit, toss it in the frying pan, add some soy sauce. Done. And this is coming from a Chinese person.

Any Oriental food.
I always feel horrible for those doggos and kitters.

>Chinese

Not Chinese or Chinese-American. They have one of the easiest fucking cuisines.

My vote goes to the French and Italians.
-French dishes are sometimes pretentiously complex (some techniques and ingredients are just for show)
-Italian dishes are deceitful. The ingredients and instructions themselves may seem easy, but it's heart-food. You have to be passionate about what it is you are cooking for it to shine.

A notable contender is Mexican/Arabic food. Main reason? Meats done the authentic way take hours, even days, to properly get to a specific flavor.

I'd say that Indian food can be pretty complex and tedious to make. So many hours toasting and grinding spices, cooking food in a precise order, use of the tandoor etc

Not saying it is the most delicious cuisine though (there is no such thing)

Hard to say about Chinese given that there are so many extreme regional variations. Probably has more variety as a cuisine than all of Europe combined.

Kill yourself, jap food is the most uninteresting cuisine that exists

You have a good point. Something can be very complex and simultaneously dull
The standard food that Chinese eat is very simple and quick to cook I'm god damn sick of the fucking glorification of French food. I mean for gods sake, they are extremely limited in the broad uses of flavor and miss out on the critical use of spices (I include chili in this)
