In 22 AD, Soochow perished. Then the period of hegemony of the three countries was opened.

Wei Shuwu was a major country in the Three Kingdoms period. In order to expand its influence, the three countries often waged wars. No matter how big or small the war is, it will cause tension in the situation, the displacement of the people, and even the stagnation of economic development. At that time, the main social situation was that ordinary people lived a miserable life and a large area of land was left uncultivated. People live in dire straits, have no fixed place to live, and do not have enough to eat. In order to survive, they must have food to fill their stomachs. So what food did the folk people eat during the Three Kingdoms period?

In the areas where wars are most frequent, people's lives are the most miserable. Many people have no food, so they can only live by eating grass bark. Even, in order to survive, there are people who eat human flesh. It is also miserable to think about it.

In ordinary areas with arable land, the south is hot and humid, and there is a lot of precipitation, so people can grow rice, which is their staple food, while the north is relatively dry, so people grow millet. However, at that time, people were purely dependent on the weather, and the grain output was low. In addition to paying taxes, they had to sell some of them to live, so they could only drink porridge at the dinner table. Ancient exquisite? Sunrise and sunset? In order to save food, during the Three Kingdoms period, most people ate two meals a day.

Later, with the development of the times, people tend to be stable, and the staple food has also changed, including buckwheat, highland barley, and some beans, black beans, adzuki beans, etc. People will also use beans to make food to satisfy their hunger. Besides porridge, people also learn to steam dry rice, soup and so on.

Vegetables in the Three Kingdoms period were basically self-sufficient, and they were strictly forbidden to eat from time to time. Fruits such as peaches, plums, apricots and pears were all local fruits. Zhang Qian introduced grapes and pomegranates from the western regions, which provided more choices for people's lives. Meat is still very common at people's dinner tables. Pigs, cattle, sheep, horses, chickens and dogs are often eaten by people in the north. However, as the main labor force of farming, ordinary people are still reluctant to kill them to eat meat.

during the three kingdoms period, people were good at drinking. What's in Cao Cao's Short Songs? Why is Du Kang the only solution? At that time, all the wines were brewed from grain, which was low in degree and suitable for most people to drink. There have been rulers who banned alcohol, but the effect was minimal.

Although there were wars in the Three Kingdoms period, people were constantly updating their recipes.
