荷兰饮食的口味偏好：咸香微甜，乳制品与面包的日常风味。

Dutch cuisine is characterized by "salty, fragrant and slightly sweet flavors", with daily tastes of dairy products and Bread, reflecting the simplicity of local life.

荷兰饮食以 “咸香微甜” 为主，乳制品与面包是日常核心，透着生活的质朴。奶酪是国民食材，高达奶酪（Gouda）咸香浓郁，埃丹奶酪（Edam）微甜带坚果香，常切片配面包，咸甜交织的口感是早餐标配。

Cheese is a national ingredient. Gouda cheese is salty and rich, while Edam cheese is slightly sweet with a nutty aroma, often sliced with bread, and the salty-sweet taste is a breakfast staple.

面包多为黑麦或全麦，带天然微酸，表面撒芝麻或葵花籽，搭配奶酪或火腿，酸香与咸香融合，简单却饱腹。

Bread is mostly rye or whole wheat, with a natural slight sourness, sprinkled with sesame or sunflower seeds on the surface, paired with cheese or ham, the sour fragrance blends with salty fragrance, simple but filling.

咸度适中，主要来自奶酪和腌制肉类（如荷兰腌牛肉），但因面包的微酸和乳制品的甜香中和，整体不突兀，反而显柔和。

Saltiness is moderate, mainly from cheese and cured meats (such as Dutch salted beef), but neutralized by the slight sourness of bread and the sweet fragrance of dairy products, the overall taste is not abrupt but soft.

甜味多为天然，如苹果派用苹果的甜和肉桂香，甜度克制，搭配咖啡食用，甜而不腻，是下午茶的经典。

Sweetness is mostly natural, such as apple pie with apple sweetness and cinnamon fragrance, with moderate sweetness, eaten with coffee, sweet but not cloying, a classic afternoon tea.

鱼类料理以鲱鱼为主，生鲱鱼加洋葱丁，咸鲜带微辣（洋葱的辛），简单调味却凸显海鲜本味，是街头常见小吃。

Fish dishes are mainly herring. Raw herring with diced onions is salty and fresh with a slight spiciness (the pungency of onions), simply seasoned to highlight the original taste of seafood, a common street snack.

地域差异小，南北均以 “奶酪 + 面包” 为基础，仅北部靠近德国地区稍偏咸，南部受比利时影响，甜点稍多。

Regional differences are small. Both north and south are based on "cheese + bread", only the northern region near Germany is slightly saltier, and the south, influenced by Belgium, has more desserts.

这种口味与低地气候有关 —— 温凉气候适合乳制品生产，面包耐储存，简单搭配能快速补充能量，贴合务实的生活方式。

This flavor is related to the lowland climate—temperate and cool climate is suitable for dairy production, bread is resistant to storage, and simple 搭配 can quickly replenish energy, fitting the pragmatic lifestyle.
