Profile of Jilin Millenium Menu of Manzu & Han Nationality All-in-one: Assorted Food World-known
Manzu & Han Nationality All-in-one Assorted Food is like a resplendent pearl
in the treasure-house of Chinese Food and Drink Culture. It's derived of Manzu
minority courses and Han nationality courses at the early of Qing Dynasty .After
discarding the dross, and select the essence ,it became famous during Kang and
Qian times of prosperity in Qing Dynasty. It was showed to be substantial and
profound by being popular both in the palace and among the
people for four centuries. It's not only a valuable historical legacy of Chinese
cooking and human civilization, but also the profile of the food and drink
culture and cooking skills of that times.
With
the coming of twenty-first century, flourishing market and tourist trade has
promoted the food and drink culture rapidly. To respond to the call of
perfecting Ji Food by the government of Jilin province and Jilin city, we
proceed to study Manzu minority Food and imperial Food of Qing Dynasty. With the
help of modern ingredients, technological process, aesthetics, nutriology, and
fit-keeping theory, we bring forth Jilin Millenium Menu of Manzu & Han
Nationality All-in-one Assorted Food. It's made up of six tables of
dishes(altogether three hundred ninety-ninetycourses).
GUOTAIMINAN(means The country is prosperous and the people live in
peace).JIXIANGRUYI(means Good fortune as one wishes).
FULUSHOUXI
(means Felicity , Handsome ,Emolument ,Longevity and occasion for celebration)ùù4.WANSHOUWUJIANG(means
Many happy returns of the day to eternity). ZHONGLINGYUXIU (means keep all the
refined things in one). GUOSETIANXIANG
(means Hellen of Troy). In this menu more than half of dishes is from Manzu
minority Food, because we lay emphasis on special local ingredients in the
Changbai Mountains and Songhua River Valley (which is the original place of
Manzu minority). We not only make a good choice of four main local dishes and
featured local specialties emerged in the recent years, but also we make Han
nationality Food of different period and local specialties more featured on the
table. Manzu & Han Nationality All-in-one Assorted Food has really been
typical of the fine essence of Chinese Food & Drink. Otherwise in order to
enhance the visual and hearing effects of the feast, retain nutrition of the
food and keep our guests fit, we have a tentative try about five flavor (light,
ant, deep-fried, crisp fresh), six taste (sour, sweet, bitter, tingling,
pungent, salty), co ordination of seven colors (red, orange, yellow, green,
light green or blue, blue, purple) choice of utensils (gold ware ,silver ware,
jade ware, lacquer ware ,earthen ware, porcelain, bronze ware),application of
cooking methods, style of dishes, atmosphere of feast, dress and personal
ornaments, decorations, methods of service, Chinese specifications,
knick-knacks, lamplight, music, dance, and so on. |
