Among the official dishes, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, played a great role in promoting it. The following is the Ming Dynasty that I carefully arranged for you. I hope you like it.

Introduction of Ming Dynasty Cuisine

According to the political discipline of the Ming Dynasty, in the twenty-seventh year of Hongwu (1394), the Ministry of Industry built 10 restaurant in the capital (Nanjing), and the specific operation was handed over to private businessmen. In the current words, it is to stimulate domestic demand with official investment. These restaurants are very luxurious, with entertainment places such as theaters, and some even have floating seats on the water. The names of restaurants are also very atmospheric and imaginative, such as He Ming, Zuixian, Jipin, Drum Belly, Laibin and Chongze. Later, five restaurants were built, totaling 15, which was completed on August 23 of that year (lunar calendar) to receive visitors from all directions. In order to stimulate consumption, Zhu Yuanzhang also gave money to civil and military officials (equivalent to coupons issued to stimulate domestic demand in response to the crisis) to let them spend in these restaurants. Under the leadership of emperors and officials, these restaurants naturally flourished. One day100000? .

Boat banquets were quite popular in the Ming Dynasty, especially in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, and even more popular in the Qing Dynasty. The boat banquet, taking the boat as the banquet place, combines delicious food, beautiful scenery and beautiful scenery, and has a unique flavor. At that time, boat banquets were provided in water scenic spots such as West Lake in Hangzhou, Taihu Lake in Wuxi, Slender West Lake in Yangzhou, Qinhuai River in Nanjing, Yefangbang in Suzhou and North-South Grand Canal? Sandboat? (also known as? A boat? ), there is a stove in the cabin and wine and food behind the cruise ship. In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, there was a poem "Recalling Jiangnan", which described the pleasure of the boat banquet well. Suzhou is good. It's a wine rolling boat. A few times, I went to Boshan to seal incense, and five bowls of fresh water before the banquet, and sat in front of the mountain. ?

It can be inferred that tourism catering in the true sense should be developed from the Ming Dynasty. The combination of entertainment and catering is also a great progress in the catering industry.

Because of the richness of social material and the prosperity of culture, in the Ming Dynasty, diet gradually came out among the people? Eat? Limited, become a unique way of entertainment. This is a great progress compared with the Song Dynasty. For example, what is often recorded in Water Margin is eating and filling the stomach. What are the main functions of restaurants? Eat? In the Ming dynasty, going to restaurants was more of an entertainment.

Another main feature of Ming cuisine is the appearance of many exotic ingredients, which greatly enriched the original cuisines and dishes.

Tomatoes, peppers, pumpkins, sweet potatoes (sweet potatoes), corn and garlic were all introduced into China in the Ming Dynasty, especially the introduction of peppers, which was revolutionary for China's diet. Without pepper, it is impossible to form Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine today. Tomato and egg soup, which is cooked by almost every household today, appeared in the Ming Dynasty.

Among the famous court dishes in the Ming Dynasty, 2 1 dish was invented at present. They are: roasted mushrooms, bracken, roasted clams, fried prawns, frog legs, dried bamboo shoots, Sanshi, cooked ham, distiller's grains, roasted venison, braised belly, frozen ginger vinegar fish, raw beef, spent pearls, cooked tiger meat, roasted loach, fermented grains, fried pork, fried pork, fried pork, fried pork.

Among them, Panlong is also a famous dish in Zhongxiang County, Hubei Province, which is related to an emperor of the Ming Dynasty. This is the famous Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houzong of the Ming Dynasty. He is the eldest son of Zhu Shiyuan, the star king, and his fief is in Zhongxiang. In the sixteenth year of Zheng De's reign (152 1), Zhu Houzhao, the Emperor of Wu Ming, died childless, and Zhu Houzong was Zhu Houzhao's first cousin. Brothers and sisters? According to the regulations, Zhu Houzong became emperor in Beijing.

It is natural for a local warlord to become an emperor. Dragon ascended to heaven? , become? Dragonfly? Yes Before Zhu Houzong ascended the throne in Beijing, his teacher saw him off. There was another one? Asparagus? . Taking lean pork, fat, fresh fish slices, egg white, mung bean dry powder, scallion, pepper and salt as raw materials, the fish is chopped into minced meat, filtered with gauze, mixed with seasoning, wrapped with egg skin, steamed in a cage. Because this dish was invented by chef Jando, it is also called locally? Would you like some more food? , or homophonic call? Cutting vegetables? Or? Jando? Sticking and cutting, because the practice is to wrap the egg bag and cut it into pieces, also known as? Roll cutting? .

? Three things? It is necessary to say something special about this dish. Made of seafood (sea cucumber, abalone or shark's fin), fat hen and pig's trotters, seasoned and simmered. This dish is the origin of the famous Fujian dish Fotiaoqiang and the famous Hunan dish Anzu shark's fin.

Tiger meat is a special ingredient, and now it is gone. According to Compendium of Materia Medica? (Tiger meat) tastes sour and nontoxic. It can treat nausea and vomiting, replenish qi and stop phlegm, and hurt teeth. ? The practice of tiger meat is also very special. The practice recorded in Song's Health Care Department written in the Ming Dynasty is to flood with fresh soil overnight, then marinate with salt for one day, wash and cook, then add water and pepper to cook. It is said that this can remove the sour taste.

The practice of frying chicken is very similar to the popular Zhangcha duck in the south. It should be regarded as the origin of Zhangcha duck. The method is to marinate the chicken first, then pour it with hot oil continuously, and finally steam it.

Jellyfish is a bit like the current cold jellyfish, which is a cold dish. The way of eating raw beef is very similar to the later hot pot.

In terms of cooking technology, the Ming Dynasty also made great progress than the Song Dynasty, and it was more standardized, including roasting, steaming, boiling, frying, roasting, marinating, spreading, frying, frying and roasting. Looking up the historical materials of the Ming Dynasty, we can find that at least 28 dishes were made by independent cooking methods, such as roast sheep's head, crystal goose, stuffed crab, steamed dragon liver, cannon and so on.

Poor cooking is a great contribution of Ming Dynasty diet. Bad refers to the raw material distiller's grains, which is also a cooking technique. Bad food is a typical example of hot and cold food, which is recorded in Qi Yaomin's Book by Jia Sixie in the Qi Dynasty. It can be cooked all year round.

The specific method of bad dishes is to marinate them with seasoning first, then marinate them, stew them slowly until they are crisp and rotten, and then put them in a bad jar for a day. The rotten meat made by this method is soft, rotten and delicious.

The currency of Ming dynasty

In the Ming Dynasty, silver was used as legal tender in circulation. Generally, silver is used for large transactions, and currency is used for decimal transactions. Silver coins and copper coins constitute the main body of money. But in the early Ming Dynasty, money was used instead of money, and later it was used in Qian Qian. In the Ming Dynasty, basically, one emperor cast one year's money (there were several generations that didn't), and a total of ten emperors cast year's money. Because of avoiding the word "Yuan" of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, all coins in the Ming Dynasty are collectively called "No Ingot Casting".

Many commercial capitals in Ming Dynasty were gradually accumulated in many domestic commercial activities. From the narrative of Ming History, we can see that people made huge profits when they managed this special commodity: first, they made huge profits by casting money, and second, they made silver by selling lead. In the commodity exchange in Ming Dynasty, with the development of production and the expansion of commodity circulation, the social relations reflected by money changed. In the early Ming Dynasty, money, as a special commodity, was manifested in the labor exchange between producers in the market exchange, and money played a media role in the middle.

The currency of the Ming Dynasty was silver. Despite its vast territory and abundant natural resources, China is not a major producer of silver and relies heavily on imports. Banks also appeared at this time and became an independent industry. The development of commodity monetary economy has created favorable conditions for the emergence of capitalist bud, which has also promoted the development of commodity monetary economy. However, in the late Ming Dynasty, the feudal society in China was more decadent, and the contradiction between productivity and production relations became more acute with the development of economy.

The territory of Ming dynasty

"Ming history? The sixteenth Tzu Chi issue:? In the early Ming Dynasty, it was bordered by Korea in the east, Tubo in the west, Annan in the south, Dabai in the north, 11,750 miles from east to west and 10,940 miles from north to south. Because their ancestors gave up Daning, they moved to the East to win, and Xuanzong moved to Du Shikaiping. Sejong abandoned Hami and Hetao, starting from Liaohai in the east, Jiayu in the west, Qiongya in the south, Yunshuo in the north, miles from east to west, and Wan Li in the north and south. His voice was taught, and he was handed over at the age of 18, instead of being registered by an official. Hou Wei's followers are not included in this figure. Alas! ?

north

In the early Ming Dynasty, more than 40 guards were set up at the border with Mongolia, including Dongsheng Guard, Yun Chuan Guard, Guanshan Guard, Quanning Guard and Laohahe Guard, all of which were important frontier areas in the Ming Dynasty. Its direction is roughly the line from Yinshan Mountain to the southern foot of Daqing Mountain to Xilamulun River. After Yongle, due to the cold weather and poor farming, the border gradually moved south. In the middle of Ming Dynasty, with the revival of Mongolia, the border moved inward again, and the Great Wall was built to defend Mongolia, and nine important towns were set up along the Great Wall to strengthen defense. The Great Wall also became the dividing line between farming areas and nomadic areas at that time.

By the Wanli period, the number of internal security stations in this area had increased to 384. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the late Jin gradually replaced the Ming Dynasty's rule over the Northeast and occupied Liaodong. North Korea, a neighboring country in the northeast, and later the Korean dynasty all expanded their territory to the north in the early Ming Dynasty. By convening, eliminating and expelling the Nuzhen tribes, their territory continued to advance northward, extending to the Yalu River and Tumen River basins. 1393, Zhu Yuanzhang gave up Tieling Wei in the Shuangcheng General Administration of the Yuan Dynasty. 1403, Judy gave the left-back hometown Jianzhou occupied by Li Han to North Korea; From 14 16 to 1449, North Korea forced an ambush on the east bank of the Yalu River. Four counties in the northwest? Located on the south bank of Tumen River? Six towns in Northeast China? The original territory of China, east of Yalu River and south of Tumen River, was completely lost.

During the Hongwu period, the northwest border of Ming Dynasty arrived in Hami area of East Xinjiang and set up a series of health clinics. /kloc-After the 5th century, Turpan in the northwest and Mongolia in Qinghai became stronger and stronger. 1472, Hami Acropolis was once invaded by Turpan, and it was moved to the inland, then recovered, and merged again in 15 14. /kloc-After 0/5th century, the northwest garrison was completely lost, and the Ming Dynasty retreated to Jiayuguan.

1382, the Ming army pacified the whole territory of Yunnan. During the Yongle period, it set up three propaganda and six comforts in Indo-China peninsulas such as Myanmar, Laos and northwest Thailand, and reached the Bay of Bengal. In the middle and late period, these areas were mostly abandoned or merged by neighboring countries. 1406, the Ming army attacked Annan, and the south was limited to the area of Darinan County. The following year, with the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Annan officially became an administrative region of the Ming Dynasty, with jurisdiction over fifteen prefectures, thirty-six states and more than two hundred counties. Later, due to fierce resistance from local forces, 1427, the Ming Dynasty went on strike and abandoned Annan. Annan became independent from China again and established the post-Li Dynasty.
