! [][1] The ancient Japanese court issued the "meat ban" for the first time in the eighth century, and then the emperor continued to issue several letters, and the aristocratic class completely got rid of the meat habit. At that time, the common people all studied writing in monasteries, and when they were sick, they also relied on monks for treatment. In the eyes of the common people, monks were omnipotent "intellectuals" and were widely expected. Therefore, the common class influenced by monks' education has gradually moved away from meat. In the next 12 or 3 years or so, the Japanese have never had the habit of eating meat. However, is it true that all Japanese people don't eat animal meat? And lasted for more than a thousand years? Of course not. However, it is true that the subalterns will never eat animal meat unless they have to. For example, when people are sick or physically weak, people will acquiesce in their eating animal meat, and even encourage patients to eat these "supplements". In addition to patients, there are some so-called "gourmets" who support the livelihood of Orion. In the 12th century, Japan began to enter a samurai society with frequent wars. The first stage was a fierce war between the two samurai groups, Yuan and Ping, both descendants of the Emperor. What did people eat in Yuanping era? Let's investigate from this question! It seems that the reason for Pingjia's defeat is not limited to the corruption of officials and officials, but also the difference of food. I think everyone is also very interested in exploring this aspect! In the fourth year of Zhicheng (AD 118), Pingjia withdrew to the feather sound of waterfowl, where the decisive battle of Yuanping era-"Fujigawa Hezhan" was carried out. It was precisely in this year that an unprecedented drought occurred in Kansai area centered on Kyoto and Shiga, and even the seeds that farmers cherished most during the day were eaten as food. As a result, from the second year, there was no harvest for three consecutive years. )。 The disaster that lasted for three years not only claimed the lives of countless lower-class farmers, but also threatened the rule of the Wu family. So, what did the people of Pingjia and Genji eat during this period? First of all, it introduces the contents of their daily diet before hunger occurs. As a warrior class, Pingjia has gradually transformed into an elegant official who lives in a temple. The gorgeous life of aristocrats has been immersed in their body and mind, and the original good living habits of Park Su-liang have long been forgotten, and daily living habits have all fallen into a vicious circle of morbidity. Of course, when their diet enters the superior aristocratic social standard, it is natural to produce many aristocratic diseases. People in Pingjia often like the so-called food from distant countries, but these foods are salty and hard to digest in order to ensure the quality, such as dried salted fish sprinkled with a lot of salt, steamed brown rice and so on. When the Pings eat, they hardly touch the vegetables, and symbolically use chopsticks to hold some. The imbalance of nutrition can be seen. Because of the bondage of Buddhism and superstition, nutrition is often unbalanced, and the humble position of diet in Buddhist thought often controls people's desires and prevents them from taking more beneficial nutrition. The evil consequences caused by this are probably the foreshadowing of the demise of the regime. The Tale of Genji and Pillow Grass Son hardly mention food (this can be compared with the Dream of Red Mansions in China). In the diet life at the end of Ping 'an, meat was gradually talked about, and it was often forbidden to eat fish. In Fujiwara's Ming Yue Ji, there is a confession that "I got sick because I ate fish, and I am ashamed of it". There are almost no more descriptions about food preparation and taste enjoyment in literature except in diaries, which is a far cry from the overwhelming introduction of food culture in today's media. In addition, people in Pingjia often live a life of staying indoors and not exercising enough, and they don't like bathing and don't pay attention to personal hygiene. Women, in particular, often die of tuberculosis because they live in the inner mansion and have no contact with the outside world, and beriberi and skin diseases often plague them. However, what we usually see, such as the corrupt life painted by Fu Shi, is far from reality. So, what about the diet life of the warriors of the Eastern Kingdom compared with this? Paying attention to the quality of food can be said to be the characteristic of the warriors in the Eastern Kingdom. They got rid of the shackles of Buddhism and superstition, ate meat such as birds and animals, ingested a lot of animal protein, and often drank miso soup and dried plums to help digestion. Moreover, through unremitting martial arts training and long-distance practice in the mountains of the East, I have a healthy and good life. Only this side, we can compare the physical differences between the two samurai. I'm afraid it's hard for a Pingjia warrior with a female physique to defeat an Eastern Warrior as strong as an ox. In addition, the three-year famine that began in 118 AD only happened in the Kansai region, but the East China was a good harvest, and the situation was more favorable to Genji. However, it is not easy for Lai Chaoyuan, who is preparing for the war to raise rations, to collect food and grass completely in the East. It is very difficult to prepare food and grass for tens of thousands of military horses. At that time, each soldier needed 8% to 1 liter of food per day, which was in principle self-provided, but it could be supplied by the Lord after entering the long queue. Generally speaking, dry rice is soaked in water and soup, while others, such as miso meatballs, are the most suitable food to supplement salt, which was a treasure in the Warring States period, and Nobunobu, Xiuji and Jiakang won the world by it. Given a liter of rice per soldier a day, 1, soldiers need 25 ounces (one ounce equals 4 liters) a day, and 1, soldiers need 2,5 ounces a day. Together with the soybeans needed by military horses, one head needs about three liters a day (the Maroons eat more than others). Considering this, it is also a huge number. Then, we use some data to prove the importance of diet. The following is the difference of average life expectancy of emperors, military commanders and ordinary people (government officials, ordinary warriors, monks, etc.) in different times. (Accidents and the elimination of war dead) The emperor's generals in the early stage of peace: 54 years old, 62 years old, 61 years old, middle stage of peace: 41 years old, 7 years old, 57 years old, late stage of peace: 38 years old, 66 years old, Kamakura era: 44 years old, 56 years old, 64 years old, showing that the age of natural death began to advance, which was inseparable from the fashion of being ashamed of meat at that time. Then, it introduces the height of men in each era: 159.1cm ancient tomb era: 163cm Kamakura era: 159cm Muromachi era: 156.8cm Edo era: 157.1cm early Meiji era: 155.3cm It is not difficult to see that the height gradually decreased from the ancient tomb era, which is closely related to the intake of animal protein. In this way, the differences in food intake between the two families of Yuanping eventually led to their different fates. Therefore, in the background of political, military and other issues, it is not necessary to contact the actual social life at that time. In the Warring States period, due to the frequent wars, the diet also became the first to serve the samurai. Originally, meat was not eaten by the nobles, but only by farmers and hunters without identity. Gradually, officials become malnourished, while farmers or hunters who prey on everything look much healthier. Warriors who fight may think that life and stomach are more important than their own lives and identities. Moreover, venison is delicious among delicacies, so a famous dish, roasted venison with pepper and salt, appeared. However, roasted venison with pepper and salt is not suitable as dry food, and it takes some time to make this dish well, which is somewhat inappropriate on the battlefield. When it comes to fighting, the soldiers will take the food they need to fight to the battlefield. Because sushi can be eaten in a short time, and it is easy to fill an empty stomach, it is regarded as very important food. Sushi is a kind of dumplings wrapped in rice and covered with kelp and other things. Although it is easy to fill the stomach, it is also easy to make the warriors thirsty. The warriors carry roasted miso pieces and can drink them when they go to war. So miso soup, which is absolutely indispensable in Japanese cuisine, was born. As far as warriors who can drink a miso soup with relish are concerned, dried noodles are a luxury. Dried noodles were introduced from China before the Muromachi era. At that time, besides soy sauce and wine, seasonings such as Chai Yu and kelp were also invented, which added to the delicacy of the soup. When it comes to noodles, we can't help talking about Takeda Shingen, the tiger of Jiafei. The favorite food of Jiazhou army in Takeda Shingen is to cook noodles like oolong noodles with vegetables, and then season them with miso, which is very nutritious for the soldiers who want to decide the outcome by physical strength. We can't help but think about whether it is because of the power of noodles that Takeda Army lasted so long when he was first in Nakagawa Island. At that time, there were few available resources in Japan, and agricultural productivity was very low. The reason why many lords constantly plundered other people's territories was actually to rob resources in other territories. As for ordinary people, it can be said that almost all of them eat chaff and drink too little, so many people simply give up farming and go to war. If they are lucky, they may get credit and reward. At that time, the raising of poultry and livestock was not common in Japan, and many poultry and livestock were only owned by big landlords. Ordinary people would not eat fish themselves, because they had to pay taxes to the lords, so they generally sold fish instead of eating it. Most people usually eat vegetables, and some even drink gruel. In the temples, no matter the traditional Sect or the old Sect in Honganji, they all live on vegetarianism. Oily tofu made from oil and miso in Kamakura era has gradually become the main course of monks. I don't know if it's because it's very simple to make wheat flour, or because monks are influenced by the customs in northern China. Noodles, oolong noodles, bean paste buns and other foods made of wheat flour are all regarded as snacks for afternoon tea. Attachment: Emperor Meiji was only fifteen years old during the Meiji Restoration which promoted Japan's modernization. Tokugawa Yoshinobu, the 15th generation general of Tokugawa who transferred the political power to Meiji Emperor, was only thirty years old at that time and had been in office for only one year. Five years later, the chaotic society gradually stabilized, and the Meiji government lifted the "meat ban" that lasted for 1,2 years. However, even if the ban was lifted, the people could not get used to eating meat immediately, so Emperor Meiji had to set an example for the people. But in fact, Emperor Meiji hated eating meat. But because of contact with westerners and demonstration to the people, I reluctantly eat meat in public. [1]: /p/21121/2112113466-1217828519.jpg
