Pre-prepared dishes are dishes that have been pre-processed, already processed, and can be eaten simply by cooking. These dishes are usually produced by professional food processing enterprises, and after simple packaging and preservation treatment, they can be served to consumers. The concept of pre-made dishes originated in the takeaway and fast food industries, and has now gradually expanded into areas such as home kitchens and restaurants.
Pre-made dishes come in a variety of forms, including ready-to-eat foods, ready-to-heat foods, ready-to-cook foods, and more. Ready-to-eat food is a dish that has been processed and can be eaten directly, such as canned food, bagged cooked food, etc.; Ready-to-heat food is a dish that can be eaten only by heating, such as instant noodles, quick-frozen food, etc.; Ready-to-cook foods, such as semi-finished dishes, need to be cooked simply before they can be eaten.
