of course, good food is not exclusive to men. Ancient women, if given the chance, were mostly willing to run for a while on the way to eat food. It's just that most ancient historians are pedantic, probably thinking that women can't get on stage in the end, so there are few written records. Even so, someone is always famous. For example, Yang Yuhuan, the imperial concubine of the Tang Dynasty, was one of them. Interestingly, Yang Yuhuan's fame in the foodie world is not the hype of historians, but thanks to the great poet Du Mu. Du Mu has a song about Huaqing Palace, which is quite famous. There is a line in it: when the princess in the world of mortals laughs, no one knows it is litchi. You see, the great poet is powerful, elegant understatement, Yuhuan girl's out-and-out nature of eating goods is exposed. But in ancient times, the most delicious litchi was Lingnan, while the imperial capital Chang 'an was thousands of miles away. The express delivery industry in Datang is far less developed than that in contemporary times. We Yuhuan girls want Taobao to eat fresh litchi. It is estimated that it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources. Now, do you know why Yang Yuhuan is fat? Come out for dinner!

However, Yang Yuhuan is definitely not the only woman in the food industry. For example, Li Qingzhao can also be called one. Of course, it was not others who betrayed her eating essence, but herself. Maybe I ate a very high meal and drank a lot of wine, and I vaguely posted this sentence on Weibo: I always remember the sunset in Xiting, and I didn't know where to go when I was drunk. Always had a good time, but lost to the swimming pool deep in Zhu Feng. How to row a boat out, accidentally, but scared a group of Oulu. When Weibo came out, there were tens of thousands of praises and reposts, and some diehard fans left messages below. It's too grounded The goddess used to be a foodie. Of course, this is like a dream, and it has been handed down as a masterpiece by future generations.

but if the definition of eating food is just for eating, it will inevitably flow to a lower level and a higher level. You need to toss something to eat and fly on the road of eating with others' hands. Of course, with this evaluation, Dong Xiaowan should be black powder. The word "Dong Xiaowan Violet", also known as "Wan Jun", sounds like a young literary woman. Of course, Dong Xiaowan was by no means a lady, but one of the most popular members of Jinling Eight Musts in the brothel circle at that time. As for the ending, it is better than other sisters. She married a gifted scholar at that time, ventured out of Xinjiang and lived in the garden.

most of the gifted scholars in ancient times were weak and sickly. Of course, taking risks abroad is no exception. Dong Xiaowan entered Maofu, so naturally he didn't have to make a living by selling jokes. In her spare time, she studies recipes carefully. When she sees that strange smell in Weibo, she will take pains to learn the recipe. Serve delicious food, taste it yourself first, think it tastes good, and then give it to your husband, which is also a tonic. It can be seen that Dong Xiaowan's love philosophy is: To keep a man's heart, we must first keep a man's stomach.

Of course, Dong Xiaowan, a well-trained foodie, finally made my husband feel his deep love for food. She did not hesitate to praise her wife's skills: those who burn meat for a long time have no oil and taste of pine and cypress; The wind blows for a long time, just like burning meat, which smells like elk. You see, the meat is not greasy, the fish tastes like elk, and the craftsmanship of Dong Xiaowan. How can this pillow man not take a big step on the road of eating goods? If it is said that venturing across Xinjiang is a preference for your wife's reputation, then the spread among the people is more in line with Dong Xiaowan's best creative eating style: drunken clams are like peach blossoms, drunken sturgeon bones are like white jade, oily pomfret is like sturgeon, dried shrimps are like dragon whiskers, and roasted rabbits are as crisp as cake bait. In modern terms, it is roughly the taste of first love.

However, if you want to name the most delicious sister among ancient gourmets, I'm afraid it's the Empress Dowager Lafayette. Of course, it is not easy to authenticate whether Cixi is a beautiful woman, because the age is relatively recent and the photos are passed down from generation to generation. Unlike those women in distant times, they are always described in words. In fact, many food shops in the market often hang such signs: Cixi's favorite old tofu, the streaky chicken grabbed by Lafayette, the fat pot meat used by the Western Empress Dowager and so on. It can be seen that in the eyes of the world, Galeries Lafayette has long been a gold-lettered signboard for eating goods and attracting business. As for Cixi's achievements in diet, we might as well look at a daily dinner list handed down from the Qing Dynasty: there are about 21 dishes, including seven kinds of duck dishes, such as bird's nest like babao duck, and smoked dishes, such as roast duck, roast suckling pig, smoked chicken and stewed leg of lamb. It can be seen that Lafayette is a real meat eater, especially ducks. According to legend, Cixi likes to stew fat ducks, wash them, put them in porcelain jars and steam them with slow fire for three days. When the jar was opened, the fragrance was overflowing. Interestingly, Cixi likes duck skin best. Every time she picks up chopsticks, she doesn't have to eat anywhere else. The skin is the entrance.

Of course, Cixi's fastidiousness about eating is by no means limited to vulgar meat. Sometimes I play literature and art, for example, when flowers bloom in spring, if Cixi gets up, she will pick them and eat them. Of course not raw. Probably fold the petals, let the eunuch soak them in warm water, rinse them for more than ten minutes, then pick them up, drain them and put them in a bamboo basket. Don't eat it at this time, but the newly cooked fish fillets and duck fillets in the kitchen will be sprinkled with the original petals and savored. So, it is delicious.

It's not impossible for Cixi to be so elegant for thousands of years. But at this time, in the late Qing Dynasty, state affairs were in chaos. When the gunfire of foreign powers came, Cixi finally couldn't sit still in the palace and ran away. Even if it is running, Cixi has no intention of reducing this kind of food and extravagance. Every time you flee to a place, once you settle down, you must assemble bird's nest and shark's fin from all over the world to spell out hundreds of delicious dishes. It is said that the daily food expenses are above 221 silver. If you can't finish it, you may throw it away.

of course, there is always an end to running away. On the way back to Beijing, some local officials used the posthouse as a palace in order to kiss up to Lafayette and welcome the Saint Driver. As for banquets along the way, it also depends on the standards of Cixi, including eight treasures, eight or eight seats, and six or six seats. There are tens of thousands of silver everywhere. Look, where did Cixi escape? It's obviously her famous and coquettish journey on the tip of her tongue.
