When you can't relieve your worries, have a jam cake roll and a cup of black tea; when you recall the lovesickness of your old place, eat a bite of tangerine peel and red bean paste; when you are homesick in a foreign place, taste a bowl of wontons without fish soup; when you want to escape from the world alone, cook them out of thin air. A plate of pasta... Eat it as soon as possible while your cravings are still fresh. "Food Table" not only reminds you of the fading tastes and emotions in the world of words, but also talks about the knowledge and information about food: Do you know how Haruki Murakami makes pasta? The most poisonous poison in "Fat Rouge" is not opium. Do you know what it is? "The Legend of Lie Lao" is actually full of delicacies, have you noticed? Do you have any impressions of how to brew the wild coffee that the cowboys in Brokeback Mountain drank when they were having sex? Zou Zhiyin will tell you one by one in the book.
If reading and thinking make you more and more hungry, the book also provides you with 12 small recipes, which are simple and lightweight. As long as you take out the ingredients and use your hands, you can connect to different eras and jump into the memory of dishes. While it's hot, realize the fantasies and desires in your mind one by one, and let reading nourish your stomach and heart.
Guo Shiyong, Chen Ziqian, and Ye Zisong are extremely knowledgeable about food recommendations!
Recommended words:
As a food journal, this book comes from the author's memories, life moments and emotions on the one hand, and is based on his rich knowledge and reading experience on the other. Zhiyin has been in Chinese and foreign literature and popular culture, from Shi Naian, Lu Xun to Zhang Ailing, from Kafka, Hemingway to Haruki Murakami, from Sherlock Holmes, Mobile Police to Yukawa Manabu, and she has recipes from different eras and countries at her fingertips. From the food in your mouth to the books you read, you can reconstruct the world's colors and flavors based on the clues between the lines. Eating and reading draw each other together, and finally merge into one. ——Kwok Shi-wing (Hong Kong scholar and writer)
Zhiyin's writing style is agile and she is like a fish in the sea of knowledge. A strange metaphor reaches the world. "The Years of Wonton" describes the homesickness of the poet who left Hong Kong. Thinking of wontons and the Pearl of the Orient, this is a stroke of genius: "The wontons are oblate and not very symmetrical in shape. The surface is uneven and full of wrinkles. It is a somewhat dry oriental pearl. Pearl." The Pearl of the Orient has long been an old metaphor for moldiness, but with the descriptions of "not quite symmetrical," "bumpy, wrinkled," or even "dry," it completely washes away the beautiful image. ——Chen Ziqian (Hong Kong scholar and writer)
"Shi Zi Dining Table" often writes about daily scenes and personal trivial matters, which are folded into various literary and film and television works. The food scenes in the text are also filled with comparisons, turning into pages of recipes, containing the desire for survival, the taste of the times, and the memory of the senses. ——Ye Zisong (Editor-in-chief of "SAMPLE" magazine)
