Cooking China - Tibet
Gastronomy
Gastronomy is extremely limited, due to subsistence agriculture. Bases of daily food: tsampa, barley flour cooked in the oven, yak butter and black tea, sold in packs. These three ingredients, plus salt, are mixed in one bowl to form one single meal. The mixture obtained is more or less substantial, and rancid butter is very appreciated. Try the momos, (pasties stuffed with vegetables and meat) and thukpas, meat noodles. The favourite drink of the Tibetans is: chang, a type of beer based on fermented barley. In Lhasa, the traveller will find a number of restaurants of Chinese, Indian, Nepalese or western origin, and can order a yak steak, a pizza, or "cheesecake". Numerous small restaurants serve mutton and pasta around the mosque, in the Muslim district.
