Book Review
I watched an episode of "Cooking" by Wang Zengqi this week. I chose this book for two reasons. First, the book itself has many topics to communicate with book lovers.

Secondly, Gaoyou salted duck eggs written by Mr. Wang have become an indelible memory of childhood. Looking back on that paragraph now, I still can't help swallowing.

"Insert a chopstick and the red oil will slip out and eat with chopsticks. Oily but not greasy, the eggshell is still intact after eating. Wash the eggshell and catch some fireflies in it at night. The light flashes and looks good. "

Characters were first seen in middle school Chinese textbooks, but the author's exquisite description is unforgettable so far. So the biggest impression of Wang Zengqi is food.

Cooking is a collection of Mr. Wang's food essays. The book consists of 5 chapters and 29 articles, which not only describes the practices and eating methods of special foods, but also describes the names, sources and eating habits of ingredients in different regions. It is a master's philosophy of eating goods and a book with great humanistic characteristics.

Personally, after reading this book, I deeply feel rich in details. Although it is ostensibly about food, it actually contains countless philosophies of life.

In the book, Mr. Wang said that he learned about the description of sunflower through a poem, so he wanted to know what sunflower is, whether it is okra or sunflower stalk. Later, combined with the poet's description again and again, Mr. Wang realized that this is actually the winter amaranth that still exists in the south today.

In fact, there are many records about sunflowers in ancient poems. Poetic style in July: "In July, the sunflower is ripe." Visible is universal. In Qi Shu Yao Min at the end of Wei Dynasty, planting sunflowers was listed as the first vegetable.

"Don't pick sunflowers and hurt your roots" and "Eat sunflower seeds with dew under pine trees" often appear in poems. In the Yuan Dynasty, Wang Zhen's agricultural books also called sunflower "the owner of all kinds of vegetables". Somehow, it became useless.

It has been listed as grass in the Compendium of Materia Medica in the Ming Dynasty, and it is not recognized as a vegetable at all! Kwai's experience is really miserable! What is the reason?

It can be seen that sunflower was originally produced in the north and was once popular all over the country. However, with the emergence of Chinese cabbage, the main vegetables in this country were gradually replaced by Chinese cabbage and retreated to the south.

Therefore, according to Sunflower, Mr. Wang expressed his feeling that the fate of vegetables is also related to everything in the world? Same,? It has its ups and downs, and it will be a bit emotional to mention it.

People in different areas have different eating habits. There are only a few interesting stories in the book.

An actress who came from the north to the south to experience life, ate spicy food every day after arriving in Sichuan. One day, she couldn't stand it, so she went out to a jiaozi store and asked for a bowl of jiaozi.

As soon as the actress entered the dumpling shop, she said to the waiter in the shop, "Boss, I want a bowl of dumplings, not peppers." The boss smiled and replied, "Tangyuan doesn't even add pepper."

He also said that Shandong people love onions and will die if they don't eat a meal. A wife quarreled with her mother-in-law. When she gets angry, she jumps into the well and can't get out. Nobody does much work at home. The man said a good word and a bad word, but the woman just couldn't get on.

So the man had to hang an onion on the wellhead, and soon his wife smelled the onion and came up by herself. It is enough to see how much Shandong people love onions.

Wang Zengqi summed it up like this

Confucius said: It is human nature to eat color, enjoy delicious food and appreciate beautiful things. We can't decide the direction of the world, but we can control the three meals a day on the table. Food is the beauty that ordinary people can see when they open their eyes.

As soon as the food touches the tip of the tongue, it gathers in the mouth, and the fragrance is chewed up little by little, slipping into the throat and immersing in the body. This is a trip to forget your worries.

The existence of food is not only to solve the problem of people's food and clothing, but more importantly, it is a culture, a key to solving worries, and a culture worthy of our lifelong study.

Enriching the heart with delicious food is the beginning of a better life. Teacher Wang also said: I am not pursuing profundity, but harmony. I wrote about beauty, a healthy human nature, and beauty is needed at all times.
