Confucius was a Foodie

Huaiyang (1x4)

Ausstrahlung: Feb 23, 2016

Huaiyang cuisine is a bit of a mystery. Said to be the cuisine of poets and scholars, and a cuisine which demands meticulous knife skills and elaborate presentations, the cuisine appears to be a personification of the teachings of Confucius. The creative presentation of skillfully combined ingredients expresses the four most important elements in the art of Chinese cooking; color, aroma, flavor and texture. This type of cuisine is refined and delicate, and a far cry from what most North Americans think of coming out of a takeout container! All of this is incredibly enticing, so why then is Huaiyang cuisine so little enjoyed or understood in North America?
