After the palace cuisine, another major cuisine is official cuisine, which originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and runs through the whole feudal society. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Yi Ya, a favorite gourmet of Qi Huangong people. His family dinner is no less than the palace dinner. Yi Ya often cooks delicious food for Qi Huangong, which has won the favor of Qi Huangong. It is for this reason that Yi Ya has become one of the three famous chefs in the cooking industry.

Since Yi Ya, the most popular government dishes have appeared in every dynasty. When it comes to official dishes that affect the whole feudal society, they are Confucius' dishes. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "attacked a hundred schools in Guizhou and respected Confucianism alone", Confucius laid a political and economic foundation for the development of Confucius' diet. The descendants of Confucius continued the title of Duke of Feast from generation to generation, and became the most influential family in China, with the largest hereditary residence in China. Especially in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Duke of Feast enjoyed hereditary power. As you can imagine, over the past 2000 years, 77 generations of extended families have inherited the dietary attitudes of Confucius and Confucianism and accumulated rich dietary experience.

Under the direct influence of Confucius' food thought, "Confucian Cuisine" has taught cooking skills and promoted food culture. It has lasted for more than 2500 years and lasted for more than 70 generations. It has become a system of its own and enjoys a long history. Interestingly, "Confucian cuisine" likes to string the names of these dishes with numbers. Actually, you can go from one row to ten thousand: a pot of Confucius' house, three fresh shrimps and four happy pills, five fragrant orchids and six rows of pieces, seven clever tofu and eight immortals crossing the sea to make arhats, nine-story chicken tower jambalaya, a thousand-layer cake of lily deer breast, and a piece of bird's nest with a Chinese character of gold, silver and duck. In addition, there are poems with poetic charm, such as ginkgo biloba, fairy duck, ribbon court, baked flowers and mandarin fish, and so on.
