In terms of food philosophy, food etiquette and serving order - Guan Zhong, who has been around for more than 2,500 years, said in his book "Guanzi Discipleship": "As for eating, the master will eat, and the disciple will give food." Rinse, sit on your knees and give back. Put the sauce in the wrong food, and the old food is not contradictory. Where there is food, birds, beasts, fish and turtles, must be eaten first. Don't be in the soup, the gizzard is in front of the sauce, and it is set up. Rice is for the pawn, left wine and right sauce. Tell the body and retreat, and stand with his hands in hand. Three rice and two buckets, the left holds the void bean, the right holds the dagger, and the week is returned to the two, only the sight of the eye. With the teeth, the week has a beginning. The ruler does not kneel, which is called the second era. Mr. has eaten, and the disciple is Che. Tend to go into the gargle, and gather sacrifices before the struggle. The gentleman has a life, and the disciple is the food. This passage is to the effect that when it is time to eat, the master is ready to eat, and the disciple will bring the meal. Rolled up his sleeves and washed, and sat on his knees waiting for him. When displaying various food sauces, do not violate etiquette regulations. Generally speaking, before eating meat such as birds, beasts, fish and turtles, vegetable soup must be served. The soup and meat are arranged alternately, the meat is placed in front of the sauce, and the table is arranged in a square. The rice is placed on the left side of the wine on the last; On the right side, place the slurry for cleaning. When the meal is finished, you can step back and stand aside. Under normal circumstances, it is three bowls of rice and two glasses of wine, the student holds an empty bowl in his left hand and a chopsticks and spoon in his right hand, and takes turns to add the wine and rice that the teacher needs. When multiple gentlemen empty their bowls at the same time, they add wine and rice in order of age, and so on. If you use a long spoon, you don't need to kneel to serve it, this is the rule of adding wine and food.

The taste is light and neutralizes the five flavors - Guan Zhong said in his book "Pipe Water and Land": "Those who are light are also among the five flavors." Because the water taste is extremely light, it can integrate all the flavors, so as to achieve the effect of proper harmony, so the light taste is the big taste, and it is the best taste. The "light taste" here does not mean that the dishes are cooked without taste, but that the taste is appropriate and moderately blended, which is in line with the way of health preservation. However, the thick and strong flavors themselves have no way to integrate with other flavors, and they cannot reach the realm of taste art. So far, most of the dishes used for wine in Shandong banquets, soup dishes in Jinan, and seafood dishes in Jiaodong are mainly umami, so a small amount of salt can be used in the cooking of dishes to enhance the freshness.

The harmony of five flavors - "The Twenty Years of Zhao Gong of Zuo Chuan" records that in 522 BC, Yan Zi stated to Qi Jinggong the way of the previous kings: "Harmony is like soup, water, fire, fermentation, salt, and plum are used to cook fish and meat, and the incense is used for salary, and the butcher is harmonious with taste; It is too late to relieve it, so as to vent its faults. The gentleman eats it to calm his heart. The same is true of kings and ministers. The so-called can and whether there is a way, whether the minister dedicates it to make it possible; The so-called no-or can be refined, and the ministers can go to their no. It is to do not do anything with political peace, and the people have no contention. Therefore, the "poem" says: "There is also a peaceful soup, both the precept and the peace." Speechless. The times are in contention. The five flavors of the first king's wealth. And the five voices also, to calm their hearts, become their politics and ......". Yan Zi used the way of cooking as a metaphor for the politics of monarchs and ministers, advocating that allowing different views and different opinions to exist, and reaching "harmony" on the basis of fully expressing each other's opinions is the proper state and ideal state of national politics. This famous exposition also reflects the cooking techniques of Lu cuisine in the Spring and Autumn Period, where water, fire, vinegar, sauce, salt, and plums were used to cook fish and "meat" (mutton) soups, and great importance was attached to the fusion and harmony of different flavors, and the harmony of the five flavors was endowed with the depth of political philosophy.

Don't get tired of eating, never get tired of being meticulous - "The Analects of the Township Party" meticulously records Confucius's concept of food, involving food hygiene, health preservation, etiquette and other aspects. "Don't get tired of eating, don't get tired of fine" means that the rice made by the grains is not too much to be fine, and the grains and rice are not too fine to be cut and thinner because of the fishy smell of cow, sheep, fish, etc. Regarding the dietary principle, Confucius put forward the famous "eight non-eating", that is, "eating food and eating, fish and meat are rotten, and not eating." Lust is evil, and he does not eat. Stink, don't eat. Lose food, don't eat. From time to time, do not eat. If you don't cut it right, you don't eat. Don't eat it, don't eat it...... Sell wine in the market, don't eat". Meals have deteriorated over time, fish have spoiled, drinks have changed color, and food has given off a rancid smell, so you can't eat it. Three meals a day, eating on time, all year round, and eating at the right time are eating habits that conform to the growth laws of fruits and vegetables. If you don't eat at the right time, you will be in trouble. Confucius also once admonished his descendants: "Although there is a lot of meat, it does not make it better than food", and "only wine is immeasurable, not chaotic". In short: no matter how much meat and vegetables are on the table during a meal, you should never just eat meat and greasy, so that the amount of meat and vegetables you eat exceeds the amount of staple food. Although there is no need to limit the amount of alcohol consumed, it is necessary to measure one's own strength and not to get drunk to the point of confusion. These good eating habits undoubtedly contribute to "health".

Eating as a metaphor for etiquette - eating has become the work site of Confucius to maintain the "etiquette". "Han Feizi Foreign Prince Says Lower Left" said: "Confucius sat in Lu Aigong, and the peach and millet given by the Duke of Mourning. Please use it. Confucius first cooked rice and then peaches. Left and right covered their mouths and smiled. Mourning Gong said: 'The millet is not a meal, but a snow peach. Zhong Ni said, "Qiu knows." The husband is the chief of the grains, and the sacrifice to the king is the first one. There are six fruits, and the peach is the next, and the king is not allowed to enter the temple. Qiu Wenzhi also, the gentleman is cheap and expensive, and he doesn't hear that he is cheap and cheap. Today, the snow fruit of the five grains is under the snow, and the snow is also from above. Qiu thought that it was a hindrance, so he did not dare to precede the prosperity of the temple. The story goes that Lu Aigong rewarded Confucius with peaches and gave him millet in advance so that he could use it to wipe the fine hairs on the peach skin. But Confucius ate the millet first, and then the peaches. The attendants next to him laughed when they saw it. Lu Aigong had to tell him, saying, "Millet is not used to eat, but to rub peaches." Confucius replied, "I know." However, millet is the honor of the five grains, and it is used to make rice during the sacrifice, and the peach is the lower grade of the six kinds of melons and fruits, and it is not at all the wheel during the sacrifice. How can I use the dignity of the five grains to rub the lower grades of melons and fruits, and the upper and lower levels are misaligned, which is detrimental to righteousness?"
