In fact, fast food is not a product of modern society, in China's ancient times there has long been fast food. The earliest is in the Tang Dynasty, and with the continuous development of society, the ancients to produce fast food conditions and skills are more and more mature, and and there are a variety of complete cooking utensils to specialize in the use of chefs. Then in ancient times fast food is what kind of?

During the Tang Dynasty, there was a kind of banquet called "Li Ban". It is said that Emperor Dezong of Tang temporarily summoned Wu Min to appoint him as the governor of Jingzhao, and demanded to be able to go to his post immediately. But Wu Min felt that his promotion was a big event and he should celebrate it. But time was running out, and in ancient times, it was very complicated and time consuming to organize a banquet. So for the guests, the fact that Wu Min was able to set up a banquet so quickly was very curious. At that time, the people of Wu Fu replied to these people and said, "There is a ceremonial banquet on the day of the two cities, and they lift up the bell kettle and take it, so the food of three to five hundred people can be done immediately." So this was the earliest fast food in ancient times.

To the Song Dynasty, fast food has also changed, in the market there is called "by the time to implement the call" and "contempt can be done" catering. People in this period can order food at any time, there will be no delay in the customer's time. In addition, the variety of food for customers to choose is very large, and even reached more than a hundred kinds.

And in the Han Dynasty, the fast food chef's knife work was fast and good. In the Seven Settings, it is recorded that "the offerings of the three animals, the chopping of carp and pomfrets, the flying knife emblem whole, stacked like a gnat's feather." These all describe the chef's fast knife's transportation and the thinness of the meat and vegetables cut. So at that time, such exquisite knife work and knife speed, fully able to cope with the requirements of diners, really is no different from the name of the fast food.
