Cook - Cook - Kitchen Server

Just call it "Cook", no matter it is an imperial kitchen or a country shop, call it cook

The cook is the cook. The teacher is also. I think this profession is probably an ancient type of work. Human culture begins with food, and the original oracle bone inscriptions reflected human food life.

In the early Shang Dynasty, Yi Yin rose from the kitchen to the throne. People don't talk much about Yi Yin's political achievements, but they often talk about Yi Yin's cooking skills and praise him as a cooking sage. It seems that he can be called the "cooking prime minister".

From the Zhou Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period, chefs had various nicknames: blister man, baker, beast man, fisherman, wine man, pulp man, wax man, turtle man, salt man, chicken man...different And enough. These names are quite appropriate. People who cook animals are called beast people, people who cook turtles are called turtle people, and people who cook chickens are called chicken people. However, people did not know how to eat shark fin, abalone, and sea cucumber at that time, otherwise the names of fin people, abalone people, and ginseng people would appear again.

Looking at the ancient food array, there are eight "soldiers": royal cook, government cook, restaurant cook, family cook, temple cook, ship cook, military cook, and prostitute cook. Each road of "soldiers and horses" has several branches. For example: in ancient military camps, military chefs were also called Cuijiazi, Cuozi, Huofu, and Huotoujun; in religious temples, temple chefs were also called monk cooks, Taoist chefs, rice cooks, and vegetable cooks; The aliases are the most elegant ones, such as the government, the head of the clan, the case, the master, and the doctor of sobering.

Since ancient times, people have given different praises and criticisms to chefs: those who praise them call them heavenly chefs, Ding Zujia, generals of dishes, and seasoning masters; those who praise them call them cook slaves, cooks, and cooks under the stove. , oil head.

According to a rough estimate, there are as many as 120 nicknames and nicknames for chefs, ranking first among all professions!
