reitia Posted February 2, 2016 at 10:53 AM Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 at 10:53 AM Hello friends, I'm still seeking ancient Chinese recipes (in translation) from the earliest dynastic periods until the Tang. Does anyone know of old Chinese cookbooks in English or French translation, which contain information on what was eaten in ancient China and how it was prepared? Does the cuisine of modern Xi'an preserve, to any great extent, the culinary tradition of old Chang'an? What does ancient Chinese poetry have to say about cooking?

lips Posted February 2, 2016 at 11:52 AM Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 at 11:52 AM 《食珍录》was written in the Northern and Southern Dynasties period and 《食经》was written in Sui Dynasty. I don't know if these were translated into other languages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reitia Posted February 2, 2016 at 02:33 PM Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 at 02:33 PM Thanks, lips. I appreciate your reply. Could you please transcribe the titles of these books into the English alphabet? Unfortunately, I can't read Chinese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
