Mr. Liang Shiqiu once said? The diet in Taiwan Province area belongs to Minnan series, and seafood is well managed. How many soups do you have? This may be because Taiwan Province is only separated from southern Fujian by a water, and the geographical environment and climate products are similar. Most of the ancestors of Taiwan Province immigrated from Zhangzhou and Quanzhou in Fujian Province, so it is easy for us to see the local flavor of southern Fujian in Taiwan Province's early food culture. However, in 1949, the Kuomintang regime retreated to Taiwan Province, bringing with it local cuisines from all over the mainland. Since then, major mainland cuisines have been developed in Baodao, gradually forming diverse and unique cuisines? Taiwanese food? Culture. Taiwan Province snacks are very distinctive.

　? Hakka? It is a unique ethnic group in the Han nationality. Hakkas have a history of 211-311 years in Taiwan Province. At present, there are 4 million people, accounting for about 1/6 of the Taiwanese population. They have their own unique food culture. The traditional Hakka diet is closely related to the life of agricultural labor in the past. Among them, the rice made of glutinous rice has become a famous Hakka staple food, including rice strips and vegetable bags, because it has been preserved for a long time. Because fresh food is scarce, there are many sour, salty and pickled dishes. Such as shredded ginger and large intestine, braised pork with dried plums, salted pork and Hakka stir-fry are all well-known Hakka dishes.

The indigenous diet is taken from nature, such as mountain meat, fish, wild vegetables, agricultural products, etc. There are many kinds, but the eating method is simple and heroic. Many Gaoshan tribes still retain many traditional features. For example, the Yami people in Lanyu have different restrictions on eating fish. Indigenous people like to drink, especially their own millet wine brewed with rice or chestnut, which has a sweet flavor and presents a unique drinking culture.

3. Food tonic culture

Medicinal diet is a wonderful flower in traditional Chinese medicine and diet cooking, and it is the crystallization of food culture and traditional Chinese medicine culture: food culture is the content and traditional Chinese medicine culture is the foundation. The biggest feature of medicated diet is: treating diseases and strengthening the body without diseases, which is suitable for men, women and children. What did he say first? Meal?

The introduction of fast food culture has impacted many snack cultures, because it is fast and convenient, but it has made some regional food cultures disappear step by step. In the past, the eating habits and food culture rich in regional flavor gradually disappeared because the new generation gradually accepted the taste of fast food, and the taste of hometown no longer existed. When tourists came to a strange place, as long as they found some fast food restaurants, everything was already safe and practical. Our hometown floated in a global restaurant full of French fries, fried chicken, coke and hamburgers.

The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties? In ancient times, it was called Jianye, Jiankang, Jiangning, Jinling, etc. As early as the Six Dynasties, Zuo Si's Wu Du Fu in the Western Jin Dynasty was based on? Jinling Jiali Land, since ancient times, Imperial Island? To describe the grand occasion of Jinling at that time. A long history and ancient culture are the origins of the development of catering industry in Nanjing, and superior geographical conditions and prosperous market economy are the material basis for the existence and development of catering industry.

1. Raw materials and products

What are the famous products in Nanjing? Land of plenty? The reputation, land and water transportation are very developed, aquatic products, poultry and vegetables are listed all year round, and Jinling people pay the most attention to the seasonality of diet. Superior natural conditions provide rich specialty resources for Jinling cuisine with a long history. Each region has its own unique specialties and raw materials, and the processing of these raw materials also has its own special methods, forming its own local flavor characteristics. Nanjing has distinct seasons all year round, which can grow both southern crops and northern crops. It can be said that it integrates the advantages of northern and southern crops in one place and forms a distinct locality.

second, the combination of food and medicine

dietotherapy has a long history in China, and it has a tradition of closely linking cooking skills with medical care since ancient times, and it has been attached great importance to thousands of years ago? Medical and food homology? 、? Medicine and diet work together? Using the medicinal value of food raw materials, we can cook all kinds of delicious food to prevent and treat diseases. A special vegetable in Nanjing? Chrysanthemum waterlogging has this effect. Chrysanthemum waterlogging, also known as chrysanthemum brain, chrysanthemum leaves, chrysanthemum vegetables, etc., is a perennial wild flower belonging to Compositae. The edible part is its tender tip. It is rich in vitamins, protein, flavonoids and volatile oil. According to Chinese medicine? Chrysanthemum is waterlogged, sweet, cool and non-toxic. It has the effects of clearing away heat and cooling blood, regulating the appetite, lowering blood pressure, cooling and detoxifying. Suitable for upset stomach heat, constipation, bitter taste, headache and red eyes. ? It was sown that year and can be harvested before Qingming at the latest. Is Nanjing known? A stove? It is said that almost every family must eat chrysanthemum waterlogging in midsummer. At this time, it is the best time for its efficacy, and it is also the time when people need it most. It can not only reduce summer heat, but also be a delicious food, which is enough to show its effects of clearing heat and cooling blood, regulating appetite, lowering blood pressure, and cooling and detoxifying. The combination of food and medicine is fully reflected in it.

Third, pay attention to seasonal eating habits

Nanjing people also seem to have a lot of talent in eating, and often associate eating with seasons. Such as? Is there a knife in spring and a herring in summer? 、? Are there fat ducks in autumn and vegetables in winter? 、? Little summer eel race ginseng? ，? Winter crucian carp and summer carp? 、? Rice cooked duck fat and so on. People master the growth law of raw materials, use different raw materials in different seasons, and pay attention to timely eating. This also shows the close relationship between dietary raw materials and seasons. In the "rites of rites" recorded? Spring is sour, summer is bitter, autumn is bitter, and winter is salty. How about smooth and sweet? That is to say, the taste should be in line with the season. Seasonings should also be prepared on time, such as? Use onions in spring and mustard in autumn. Dolphin, leek in spring, Polygonum in autumn. ? Since ancient times, we have always followed the seasonality of seasoning and side dishes, with strong flavor in winter and light and cool in summer; Stew and simmer in winter, and chill and freeze in summer. Pay special attention to arranging the menu according to the season. Just as Yuan Mei, a generation of famous gourmet, said in the season notice of "Eating with the Garden", it is beneficial to eat cattle and sheep in winter and move it to summer. Not at the right time. ? Radish is out of date, but the heart is empty; Mountain bamboo shoots are bitter when they are out of date, and their bones are hard when they are out of date. The so-called four-season order, the winner retreats, and the essence has been exhausted. This means that it is out of season to eat cattle and sheep suitable for winter in summer. Radish is hollow and tasteless when it is out of date, and mountain bamboo shoots are bitter when it is out of date; Swordfish and bonito become hard when they are out of date. Everything grows according to the time sequence of the four seasons. After the flourishing period, the essence is exhausted? . Yuan Mei's incisive exposition shows that people noticed the influence of the changing laws of nature on diet and the combination of diet and seasons.

IV. Prosperous catering industry

The development of cooking in China can be said to have experienced the development period of feudal society since the Sui and Tang Dynasties (or earlier), and the catering industry has been developing continuously in ups and downs. The exchange of foreign trade has enriched the food raw materials for cooking in China; The unification of multi-ethnic groups has enabled the exchange of cooking skills in various places. In particular, the appearance of many cooking works has made China's cooking slowly transition from a technical type to a new stage of knowledge research. The prosperity of the Tang society provided rich and colorful raw materials and varieties for the catering industry. At that time, Nanjing had reached a considerable level in pastry production. Tao Gu listed it in Qing Yi Lu? Seven wonders of health? It can reflect the cooking level of Nanjing chefs at that time. ? Face to face, wonton soup to watch, cake to print, rice to wipe the table, warm noodles to wear knots, cakes (one for vinegar) to persuade people, and cold chewing to disturb people. ? It is said here: the pickled sauerkraut that is chopped and mashed can be seen as a mirror on average; Wonton soup is as clear as clean water, which can be injected into inkstone to grind ink and write; The cake is very thin, such as cicada wings, and the following words can be reflected; The rice grains are smooth, and the table is not broken or sticky; Tough as a nepotism, knotted constantly; Bread does not melt in water, so it can be used as a wine lamp without leaking wine; The prickly heat is crisp and fragrant, and people within ten miles of chewing it can smell the fragrance and alarm. Of course, this is some rhetoric, but it reflects the high cooking level of Nanjing chefs at that time. The development of agriculture and handicrafts has brought prosperity to commerce. In the Tang dynasty, not only restaurants were widely distributed, but also there were lively restaurants in big cities? Night market? Supply. ? Night parking near Qinhuai restaurant? Singing backyard flowers across the river? (Du Mu's Bo Qinhuai). It can be seen that banquets could be held in the night market at that time, which shows that the business of the catering industry was very prosperous at that time.

V. External influence

China's food culture directly affects Japan, Mongolia, North Korea, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore and other countries, and is the axis of the oriental food culture circle; At the same time, it also indirectly affects Europe, America, Africa and Oceania, such as China's vegetarian culture, tea culture, sauce and vinegar, pasta, medicated diet, ceramic tableware and soybeans, all of which benefit billions of people all over the world. Due to the political influence, the population in Nanjing moved several times, and every change of dynasties brought some foreign residents (including businessmen), which brought new contents to the traditional diet in Nanjing and created excellent opportunities for communication with the outside world. In the long-term development, on the one hand, the catering life is eclectic and influenced by foreign dishes; on the other hand, many technologies and dishes in Nanjing are spread to other places, but the local characteristics of the region are maintained in mutual communication, making it more regional and local. As well-known at that time? Beijing roast duck? It first started in Jinling. Beijing famous roast duck restaurant? Old cheap square? Made in 1934 entitled? The first braised roast duck? Advertising:? Our workshop has been moved to Jinling for more than 311 years, and it is the first to cook duck and roast chicken in stewing furnace, refining various recipes and repeatedly.
