INFLUENCES
All areas of life in China are inextricably
linked with ancient Chinese philosophy, and
cooking is no exception.
In accordance with Chinese philosophy, the Universe is
in harmony due to the balance of two opposite
principles - "Yin" and "Yang". Chinese chefs also try
to find harmony in contradictions, and when creating
their culinary masterpieces, they combine tender and
spicy, sweet and sour, hot and cold, crispy and soft.
Contrasting colors of the products used are also
preferred.
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT POSTULATES OF CHINESE CUISINE SAYS THAT
FOOD SHOULD BE NOT ONLY TASTY AND HEALTHY, BUT ALSO MEDICINAL. NO
WONDER IN ANCIENT CHINA THE PROFESSIONS OF A DOCTOR AND A COOK
WERE USUALLY COMBINED. AND TODAY, BEFORE TAKING ANY MEDICATION,
THE CHINESE FIRST OF ALL TURN TO NATURAL REMEDIES AND SPECIAL
DIETS, BECAUSE A BALANCED DIET CAN GREATLY HELP IN ELIMINATING ANY
AILMENT.

INGREDIENTS AND FLAVORS
In China, rice is the staple food.
Noodles are one of the main dishes of Chinese cuisine. Basically, everyone tries to make the noodles long
without cutting them into shorter pieces. This is because, according to the Chinese, long noodles symbolize
long years.

Tofu cheese - the national Chinese product, obtained from soybeans, has a delicate taste
and delicate aroma. In addition, bean curd is very healthy and is a valuable source of
protein.
It is safe to say that the Chinese eat all kinds of meat: pork, beef, lamb, chicken, duck,
pigeon, etc. Pork is the most popular type of meat. You can see it in almost every dish.
Pork is eaten so often that the words "meat" and "pork" have become almost
synonymous.

IMPORTANCE FOR LOCAL LIFESTYLE AND
CULTURE
•
FOR THE CHINESE, EATING IS NOT JUST A NATURAL HUMAN NEED, BUT RATHER A SACRED RITUAL
IN WHICH EVERYTHING IS SURROUNDED BY THE CEREMONY - FROM THE SELECTION OF INGREDIENTS
AND THE CHOICE OF METHOD PREPARATION, TO TABLE SETTING AND SERVING DISHES. DIVERSITY,
CONTRASTS AND HARMONY DEFINES CHINESE CUISINE WITH ITS ENDLESS VARIATIONS. THE CHINESE
DO NOT THERE IS BAD FOOD, THEY BELIEVE THAT ANY DISH SHOULD BE SERVED TO TABLE IN THE
BEST POSSIBLE WAY, BECAUSE IT NOURISHES THE SPIRIT AND THE BODY.
• NO WONDER A WELL-KNOWN CHINESE PROVERB SAYS: "MIN YI SHI WEI TIAN" (LITERALLY, THE
PEOPLE REGARDS FOOD AS HIS HEAVEN) WHICH MEANS THAT FOOD PLAYS A PRIMARY ROLE IN
CHINESE PEOPLE'S LIVES, EVEN WHEN THEY MEET THEY OFTEN ASK "NI CHI FAN LE MA?" (HAVE YOU
EATEN?), THEREBY EXPRESSING A GREETING. THE CHINESE APPRECIATE A GOOD COOK, IT SO
HAPPENED FROM ANCIENT TIMES THAT THE EMPEROR COULD EXECUTE BAD COOKS, AND THOSE
WHO COOKED DELICIOUSLY COULD BE ELEVATED TO THE RANK OF MINISTERS.
