The Philosophy of Yin –Yang （the two opposing principles in nature）&Five elements, The Ethical Concept of Confucian Ethics.
Chinese cooking skills and profound Chinese food culture are developed based upon Chinese nutrition and health theory, artistic achievements in food industry, authentic diet from majorities etc. Four major characristics of the beauty of Chinese food culture include : "Nutrition based theory", "Remix of five foundamental seasonings”, “Inter-changeable cooking method & ingridients”, and “spirital & emotional satisfaction”. These characteristics differentiate it from food of other cultures and make it unique and popular.
The optimal concept of Chinese food culture is intergration – all ingridients and all flavors create a harmonized flavor of all.
In Chinese culture, food is not only for daily living, but also contains a sense of celebration. For example, when a new born arrives in a family, family members, relatives and friends will get together to have red-coated ege to represent their congratulation; “Ege” represents the wish of extension of one’s life with more children to carry on the family trandition and the ancestral line.
In this regard, Chinese food culture as well represent social significance with five thoursand years of contineous emerging and development.
“Craftsmanship, Beauty, Connection and Etiquette” are the fundamental elements of Chinese food culture. It represents food quality, emotional experience, and its social connection. It interprets the connection between Chinese culture and its food tradition.
Craftmanship: Confucius once said: "there is never too much refinement in food preparation nor too much details in cooking”. This is the primary spirit ingragrate the entire foor preparation process from raw material selection, side dish design, cooking, food presentation and the dining experience design.
Beauty: Chinese food becomes popular in almot all nations around the world for its beauty – not only the taste, but also the presentation that brings emotional and spiritual satisfaction.
Diverse Flavors: "Rice for South and Noodles for North"; "Sweet for South; Salty for North; Sour for East and Spicy for West". Four major Cuisine style include Bashu(from the west), Qilu (from the North), Huai Yang (from the East), Yuemin (from the South).
Seasonal Cuisine: Chinese tends to choose different food and flavor for four seasons. For example, Most people would eat more vegetables and seafood with less seasoning in Summer time; They tends to choose stronger flavor and more meat dishes in Winter time.
Artistic presentation: This is a great deal in Chinese food culture. The “Look” of the dish is equivalently important as the “Taste”. For example, the side dish or decorative dish could be a radish made flower, or turn a carrot into a bird or other type of creative kitchen carving. On top of that, the harmony of the material for main course, table ware and dining environment is equally important.
Fun: Chinese used lots of anology, metaphor and pictograms when given names to their dishes. For instance, “Lion Head” is a dish made of giant meat ball; “Beggar Chicken” is shredded chicken breast with spicy sauce; “Phoenix Tail” repents chicken butt. “Ants On The Tree” is a dish made of thin rice noodles with minced pork;
