There is a familiar saying in China from ancient times to the present, that is, "Food is the first necessity of the people."

From this proverb, we can see how high the Chinese people's demand for food is, and we can also see that food is very important to the Chinese people, whether they are ancient people or modern people in the new era.

Food is an important paintbrush that can add a touch of color to people's daily boring lives. No matter in any dynasty, food has a great relationship with the society and various fields at that time.

From the food of the ancients, we can understand the class level and status of that time. So there are all kinds of delicacies in real life, but what did the food of the ancients look like?

Then we must first start to study from the most primitive society, when people had just completed their evolution.

So they generally use raw food, such as raw vegetables and raw meat.

But at that time, because people's thoughts and behaviors were not better optimized, they could only be forced to eat some raw meat to fill their stomachs, and people's lives were very difficult during that period.

.

With the development of time, the dynasty reached the Shang Dynasty.

Because after long-term and slow adaptation, people began to eat various foods in different ways.

After that, people began to eat whole grains, and the element of fire was also developed.

Roasting meat over fire is one of the greatest advances in human history.

During the Wei, Jin and Northern and Southern periods, barbecue was the most popular way of eating at that time.

In fact, in ancient times, because the economy was very backward, some ancient people never ate meat in their lives.

Therefore, those who could eat meat at that time were either businessmen or high-ranking officials.

Meat alone can determine a person's economic status. After the dynasties changed, people slowly developed a lot of delicacies, and these delicacies have been preserved to this day.
