Abstract:

(Chinese version only)

《楚辭》裡有肥牛之腱，《禮記》裡有豬油撈飯，南宋有「雪到口邊銷」的冰淇淋，禁臠原來是豬頸肉。潘安貌美與羊奶有關？二千多年前的古法烹飪十分摩登？「嘗一臠肉而知一鑊之味、一鼎之調。」吳瑞卿博士將介紹中國古書裡的飲食世界，與聽眾一起在打破時空的風景線上漫步，嘗一臠文化。

Lecture will be conducted in Cantonese.

All are welcome, free Admission. Participants are welcome to attend in person/ online via Zoom.

All secondary school students attending the seminar will receive a “Certificate of Attendance,” issued by New Asia College, Chinese University of Hong Kong, on the day of the talks. Students are required to present the valid identification (e.g. student handbook or student ID) for verification after the talks.
