China has a long history in cuisine culture. Since ancient times, people have already regarded food as their prime want. Eating, for Chinese, is not just to fill the belly, but also concerns with history, religion, literature and etiquette. Indeed, the charm of Chinese cuisine lies less in the food itself than in the cultural connotation embodied in the cooking and eating process. By vivid illustrations, this book introduces Chinese cuisine, eating habits at festivals, and also tells some relevant stories to lead readers to appreciate the profundity of the Chinese food.
Recommendation
The Chinese Red series is a collection of 70 Chinese-English bilingual books dedicated to introducing the versatile Chinese culture of 5,000 years. Each of the topics in this series covers a specific aspect of Chinese culture or geography, to name just a few, Chinese Surnames, Folk Shadow Play, The Silk Road. To explain each topic, Chinese history, customs, folk stories, and social values related to this topic are introduced with the aid of photos. For anyone interested in learning Chinese culture in depth, this series is definitely a must-read.
