Eminyakeni yamuva nje, "umkhuba wokuxuba nokulinganisa" udlulele embuthanweni wokudla wamazwe ngamazwe - i-Fusion Cuisine isiba yintandokazi entsha yabathandi bokudla. Lapho abathanda ukudla bekhathala ukunambitheka okukodwa, lolu hlobo lokudla okudala oluphula imingcele yezindawo futhi ludlale ngezithako namasu luhlala luletha izimanga. Ngokungafani nokudla kwendabuko, ukudla okuxubile akunawo umthwalo womlando. Esikhundleni salokho, kungahlanganisa ngokukhululekile ukunambitheka kwamasiko ahlukene ngendlela engahleliwe, kudale ukunambitheka okusha okumangazayo ngempela.
Uma kukhulunywa nge-"Nikkei", ochwepheshe abaningi bokudla bayathuka: enye isemaphethelweni asempumalanga ye-Asia, enye isemaphethelweni asentshonalanga yeNingizimu Melika, ihlukaniswe yiPacific Ocean yonke. Hlobo luni lwenhlansi olungadalwa yilaba ababili? Kodwa ngokuthakazelisayo, iPeru inomphakathi omkhulu waseJapan, futhi isiko labo lokudla lishintshe kancane izakhi zofuzo zokunambitheka zasePeru.
Le ndaba iqala eminyakeni engaphezu kwekhulu edlule. Ekupheleni kwekhulu le-19, iPeru, eyayisanda kuthola inkululeko, yayidinga abasebenzi ngokushesha, kanti iJapane ngemva kokubuyiselwa kweMeiji yayikhathazekile ngokuba nabantu abaningi kakhulu nomhlaba omncane kakhulu. Ngale ndlela, inani elikhulu labokufika baseJapan lawela ulwandle lafika ePeru. Igama elithi “Nikkei” ekuqaleni lalibhekisela kulaba bokufika baseJapan, njengoba nje kuyathakazelisa ukuthi izindawo zokudlela zaseShayina ePeru zonke zibizwa ngokuthi “Chifa” (elisuselwa egameni lesiShayina elithi “eat”).
Ekuqaleni iPeru “yayiyi-United Kingdom emnandi” – abantu bomdabu, amakoloni aseSpain, izigqila zase-Afrika, abokufika baseShayina naseJapan bonke bashiye “izimpawu zabo zokunambitha” lapha. Abokufika baseJapan bathola ukuthi izithako zedolobha lakubo kwakunzima ukuzithola, kodwa bavulelwa umhlaba omusha ngezithako ezintsha ezifana no-avokhado, upelepele ophuzi kanye ne-quinoa. Ngenhlanhla, ukudla kwasolwandle okuningi ePeru kungathobisa okungenani izisu zabo zokukhumbula ikhaya.
Ngakho-ke, ukudla kwe-“Nikkei” kufana nokusabela okumnandi kwamakhemikhali: Amakhono okupheka aseJapane ahlangana nezithako zasePeru, aveza izinhlobo ezintsha ezimangalisayo. Ukudla kwasolwandle lapha kusamangalisa, kodwa kuhlanganiswe nama-lime asePeru, ummbila onemibala eminingi, namazambane anemibala eyahlukahlukene…… Ukunambitheka kokudla kwaseJapan kuhlangabezana nesibindi saseNingizimu Melika, njenge-tango enambitheka kahle.
"I-hybrid" yakudala kakhulu ngokungangabazeki yi-"Ceviche" (inhlanzi efakwe ujusi welayisi). Abathandi bokudla baseJapan bazomangala ngempela lapho bebona lesi sidlo okokuqala: Kungani i-sashimi imuncu? Ingabe inyama yenhlanzi ibukeka iphekiwe? Iyini isizinda salezo zitsha ezinemibala ezansi kwepuleti?
Umlingo walesi sidlo utholakala ku-“Tiger Milk” (Leche de tigre) – isosi eyimfihlo eyenziwe ngejusi likalamula kanye nopelepele ophuzi. Ubumuncu benza iphrotheni yenhlanzi “izenze sengathi iphekwe ngokuphelele”, bese kuthi ngemva kokuqabulwa ngobumnene yilangabi, iphunga lamafutha le-salmon liqhume ngokushesha. Ekugcineni, likhonzwa nommbila othosiwe, u-anyanisi oqoshiwe kanye ne-seaweed puree, njengokugqoka ukudla kwaseJapane okugciniwe ngengubo yomdanso waseLatini. Ligcina imvelo yalo enhle ngenkathi linezela ukuthandeka okubabayo.
Lapha, i-sushi nayo idlala indima ebalulekile: ilayisi lingathathelwa indawo yi-quinoa noma amazambane acutshunguliwe, kanti ukugcwaliswa kufihlwe “izinhloli zaseNingizimu Melika” ezifana nama-mango nama-avokhado. Uma ucwilisa kusosi, yiba nesosi ekhethekile yasePeru. Akunankinga nhlobo, “abafuduki be-sushi besizukulwane sesibili”. Ngisho nenkukhu ethosiwe yaseNanban eNishizaki Prefecture i-crispy yayo ithuthukiswe yaba yinguqulo ye-Pro ngemuva kokusebenzisa i-quinoa esikhundleni sezinkwa zesinkwa!
Abanye abantu bakubiza lokhu ngokuthi “ukudla kwaseJapane okudala”, kanti abanye bakubiza ngokuthi “umkhapheli wobumnandi”. Kodwa ngaphakathi kwalezi zitsha zokudla ezihlanganisiwe kukhona indaba yobungani yamaqembu amabili ezinhlanga awela ulwandle. Kubonakala sengathi “imishado ewela imingcele” ezweni lokupheka ngezinye izikhathi ingavusa imibono emihle kakhulu kunezothando zamasiko. Ekufuneni ubumnandi, abantu baye bathatha umoya wokuthi “abathanda ukudla abanamingcele” ngokweqile!
