燻製料理, or smoked cuisine, is a cooking method that involves exposing food to smoke from burning or smoldering materials, typically wood. This technique not only enhances the flavor of the food but also helps in preserving it. Common ingredients used in燻製料理 include meats, fish, and vegetables, which absorb the smoky aroma and develop a unique taste. The process of燻製料理 can vary, with different types of wood imparting distinct flavors. Popular woods used for smoking include 桜 (cherry), ヒッコリー (hickory), and オーク (oak). This culinary art is enjoyed worldwide, with various regional styles and traditions contributing to its rich diversity.
