Isisekelo se-Feng shui esiqinisekisa ukuphila silula ngendlela emangalisayo: "Konke ukudla kune-chi, noma amandla," kusho uchwepheshe we-feng-shui osekelwe eMiami u-Jami Lin. "Uma usebenzisa ukudla 'okuphilayo,' noma okusondele kufomu lakuqala, amandla abo asekela impilo adluliselwa kuwe." Ngalesi sizathu, indlebe yommbila iyathandwa kunethini likakolweni, kuchaza uLin.

Kepha yini eyenza i-feng shui (ebizwa ngokuthi "i-fung-schway") ibe ngumqondo wemvelo wokuthola isisindo esinempilo? Okokuqala, lokhu kudla kuncike ezindleleni zokupheka ezisheshayo, ezilula ezinamafutha aphansi. Njengoba izinsuku zenja zasehlobo zisondela, akukaze kube nesikhathi esingcono sokufunda izindlela ezipholile (zokuhumusha: akudingeki kuhhavini) ezisetshenziswa ekuphekeni kwe-feng-shui, konke okujova i-sizzle, i-steam ne-zing ekudleni kwakho ngaphandle kokwenza ujuluke isitofu esishisayo.

Ngenxa yokuthi ukupheka kwe-feng-shui kuncike kumafutha aphansi, ukugcwalisa imifino, izithelo nezinongo, kuwuhlelo oluhle kakhulu lokudla lwasehlobo -- lapho izimakethe zabalimi zigcwele umkhiqizo osanda kuthathwa kanye nezinongo futhi umzimba wakho ngokwemvelo ulangazelela ukukhanya, imali entsha.

Okokugcina, ngoba ukupheka kwe-feng-shui kusebenzisa izithelo ezingavamile, imifino kanye nama-condiments ase-Asia anambitheka kamnandi, ama-buds wakho wokunambitheka awasoze abhoreka.

Ukulahlekelwa isisindo ngendlela ye-feng-shui

Ukudla kwe-Feng-shui kuhlangene nendlela yokuphila esebenzayo kuvamile emaphandleni aseChina njengokudla okusheshayo nethelevishini eMelika futhi kuhlala kuyisizathu esikhulu sokuthi amaShayina asezindaweni zasemakhaya ahlale emncane. Badla ama-calories angaphezu kwamaphesenti angu-30 kunathi, ngokwe-Cornell-China-Oxford Project, ucwaningo oluqhubekayo oluqhathanisa imikhuba yokudla yabantu baseMelika neyamaShayina asemaphandleni.

AmaShayina aphinde adle i-fiber ephindwe kathathu kunamaMelika, futhi angaphansi kwengxenye yamafutha (amaphesenti angu-14 amakholori avela emafutheni vs. Amaphesenti angu-36 kubantu baseMelika). Futhi banezinga eliphansi kakhulu lomdlavuza webele nezinye izifo.

Ucwaningo lungeze ngokuthi bambalwa abantu eChina abakhuluphele. Kepha lapho amaShayina ejwayele ukudla indlela ye-feng-shui ethola ukudla okunothile kwaseMelika nokuhlala phansi, imiphumela iba yinhlekelele. Ngaphandle kokuthola isisindo, banamathuba amaningi okuba nesifo sikashukela, kusho uKathryn Sucher, Sc.D., RD, uprofesa wezokudla kanye nesayensi yokudla eSan Jose State University eCalifornia, obelokhu elandelela izinga elinyukayo lesifo sikashukela ngesiShayina abokufika. "Noma ngabe uthola isisindo esincane, basengozini yesifo sikashukela sohlobo II," esho.

Olunye ucwaningo, lwesizukulwane sesibili nesesithathu omama namadodakazi aseJapane-American asanda kushicilelwa ku I-European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Agasti 2000), bathola ukuthi amadodakazi esizukulwane sesithathu ayekuyekele cishe ukulwa nokudla okunama-veggie aseJapan okunomama abakhule bedla bakhetha ukudla kwaseNtshonalanga okunamafutha amaningi, ukudla okungenamsoco, iziphuzo ezibandayo notshwala.

Eqinisweni, ucwaningo lweluleka ochwepheshe bezokwelapha abasebenza nentsha yaseJapane-yaseMelika ukubazisa ngezinzuzo zokudla okunomsoco ekudleni kokhokho babo. Vele, akudingeki ukuthi ube wokhokho base-Asia ukuze uzuze endleleni yokudla ye-feng-shui. Kumzimba okhuluphele kakhulu futhi ongafani noBuddhalike, landela lezi zimiso ezinhlanu.

Izimiso ezinhlanu zokudla okunciphile

1. Sebenzisa inyama njengomphelelisi, hhayi isifundo esiyinhloko. Ngeke uthole i-burger enkulu enamafutha, enamanzi ematafuleni aseChina. "Abantu base-Asiya abadli amaprotheni amaningi," kuchaza uMing Tsai, ongumnikazi wompheki wendawo yokudlela yaseBoston's Blue Ginger, umbhali wencwadi yokupheka futhi oyisihlabani se-Food Network "i-East Meets West."

Eqinisweni, ukudla kwaseChina kuqukethe ukudla okungaphansi kwamaphesenti angama-20 wezilwane (ngokungafani namaphesenti angama-60-80 aseMelika), ikakhulu ngenxa yezindleko eziphakeme zenyama ezindaweni eziningi zase-Asia kanye nokuphazamiseka kwemikhiqizo yobisi. Lo mkhawulo wesithako uyisibusiso esifihlekile. Yilokho okwenza ukudla kwase-Asia kwehle kakhulu emafutheni agcwele kunokwethu.

Abapheki base-Asia basebenzisa amanani amancane enyama ukunambitheka izitsha ezenziwe ikakhulu imifino. Abase-Asiya bathola inqwaba yamaprotheni kilojoule abo kusuka kuzidumba ezinjengamakinati, ubhontshisi we-mung kanye nobhontshisi nawo aphezulu kuma-carbs ayinkimbinkimbi. Ubisi lwe-Soy, i-tofu ne-tempeh, elayishwe ngama-phytochemicals ahlasela izifo, lumela inyama nobisi.

2. Layisha ifayibha. AmaShayina asemaphandleni adla i-fiber ephindwe kathathu kunamaMelika, ngokocwaningo lukaCornell.Bakwenza kanjani lokhu? Ukusuka ku-broccoli kuya ku-bok choy, ubhontshisi omude kuya kosoya, benza imifino nezithelo (zokwenza i-dessert) okuyisisekelo sokudla kwabo.

3. Linga ngama-flavour angavamile angenamafutha. Nakuba abantu baseMelika bevame ukuthembela kubhotela, i-mayo kanye nesaladi yokugqoka ukuze bengeze ukunambitheka kanye nesithakazelo ekudleni kwethu, abapheki base-Asia banamakhulu ama-condiments, ama-zero-fat condiments, amakhambi nezinongo abanakho. I-Soy Sauce, i-Fish Sauce, i-Oyster Sauce, i-Black Bean Sauce, i-Miso (i-Japanese Bean Namathiselwe) ne-Seaweed engeza ukujula nosawoti ezitsheni. I-Chilies, i-wasabi (i-Japanese horseradish paste), i-kimchi (isinongo saseKorea esenziwe ngeklabishi eliqoshiwe), ama-curries (athandwa eThailand), u-garlic kanye nama-scallion engeza ukushisa, kuyilapho ujinja, utshani lukalamula, i-basil, i-cilantro kanye nenqwaba yamakhukhamba kunikeza ukunambitheka okuqabulayo kuqhuma.

Uma ungaqiniseki ukuthi uyisebenzisa kanjani le mikhiqizo, qala ngeyodwa noma emibili (bona "I-Feng-Shui Pantry Yakho") esitsheni esilula, njengokuthosa. Faka okuncane ngesikhathi nokunambitha, ukunambitha, ukunambitha. Ukuze ufunde kabanzi mayelana nokunambitheka kwase-Asia, bukela i-Food Network "East Meets West," noma thenga incwadi yokupheka noma ezimbili. Indawo yakho yokudlela yase-Asia noma i-Asian grocer nayo kufanele ikujabulele ukunikeza izeluleko.

4. Yenza ukudla kukhumbuleke. Khohlwa ngokudla isidlo sakusihlwa phambi kweshubhu uma ufuna ukuhlala unempilo futhi mncane ngendlela ye-feng-shui. "E-Asia, ukuzijabulisa kusihlwa yisidlo," kusho uKathryn Sucher waseSan Jose State University. "Konke kumayelana nokwazisa ngempela ukudla kanye nokunambitheka kokudla. Abantu baseMelika bavame ukudla ukuze bagcwalise izisu zabo," uyanezela. "Ngeshwa, abakuzwa ukudla noma ukudla." Lokho kungaholela ekudleni ngokweqile noma, okubi nakakhulu, ukuzitika ngotshwala.

Ukufunda ukudla ngokucabangisisa kuyi-cinch uma ugxila ekuzibekeni kumbono we-yin -- indawo yokubuka ezolile, ekhulisayo, kusho uLin. Lokho kusho ukuthi akukho ukudla phambi kwekhompuyutha noma i-TV, akukho mculo ongxolayo futhi akukho ukudla okuphuma ezitsheni zokukhipha. "Cabanga ukuthi kunjani lapho uphuza inkomishi yetiye elifudumele, ukuthi ungalizwa kanjani lidlula ohlelweni lwakho," kusho uLin. "Ukuze usondele ekudleni ngendlela yase-Asia, bheka, nambitha futhi ukwazise okungaphambi kwakho. Kuzwe njengoba kushona phansi, usekela umzimba wakho wonke."

5. Sebenzisa izindlela zokupheka ezisheshayo nezinamafutha amancane. Abapheki base-Asia bathanda u-grill, umusi, ukubilisa kanye nokudla okugazinga -- amasu anempilo adinga amafutha amancane. Ukubanjwa kusukela ezinsukwini lapho uphethiloli ubukhokhelwa kakhulu, lezi zindlela zokulungiselela zilula, ziyashesha futhi ziyavumelana nempilo yanamuhla.

Zama ukushisa kwendabuko (okuvame ukwenziwa ngaphezulu kwamanzi anephunga lemifino) kubhasikidi woqalo onemigqa emide. Ungakwazi ukushaya izitsha eziningana ezihlukene ezingenawo amafutha ebhodweni elilodwa (ubunzima obuncane nokuhlanza) cishe imizuzu eyi-10-15. Njengebhonasi, imifino, izinhlanzi nokunye ukudla kugcina ukwakheka, ukuthungwa, ukunambitheka kanye nokudla. Umbani ushesha, unyakazisa futhi udinga imishini emincane. Ipani elikhulu liyikho konke okudingayo. Faka imifino ehlukaniswe yaba izingcezu ezifanayo, amathisipuni ambalwa kawoyela wamantongomane onempilo, uvuse ngamandla ukushisa okukhulu, kanye ne-presto!
