  • Chopsticks Is a Divine Art of Chinese Culture
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RESEARCH CULTURE SOCIETY ISSN: 2456-6683 Volume - 2, Issue - 11, Nov – 2018 Monthly, Peer-Reviewed, Refereed, Indexed Journal Impact Factor: 4.526 Publication Date: 30/11/2018 Chopsticks is a Divine Art of Chinese Culture Md. Abu Naim Shorkar School of Economics, Shanghai University, 99, Shangda Road, Shanghai, China, 200444, Email – [email protected] Abstract: Chopsticks are the primary eating instrument in Chinese culture, and every youngster has to adopt using technique and controlling of chopsticks. A couple of chopsticks is the main instrument for eating, and the physical movements of control are familiar with Chinese. The Chinese use chopsticks as natural as Caucasians use knives and forks. An analogy of chopsticks is as an extension of one’s fingers. Chinese food is prepared so that it may be easily handled with chopsticks. In fact, many traditional Chinese families do not have forks at home. The usage of chopsticks has been deeply mixed into Chinese culture. In any occasions, food has become a cultural show in today’s society. When food from single nation becomes in another, it leads to a sort of cultural interchange. China delivers a deep tradition of food culture which has spread around the globe. As a company rises, food culture too evolves resulting in mutations. Each geographical location makes its own food with unparalleled taste and smell. Sullen, sweet, bitter and hot are the preferences of several food items. Apart from being good, they tell us about the people who make it, their culture and nation. The creatures which people apply to eat are not only creatures, but also symbols, relics of that civilization.

  • Korean Food and American Food by Yangsook
    Ahn 1 Yangsook Ahn Instructor’s Name ENGL 1013 Date Korean Food and American Food Food is a part of every country’s culture. For example, people in both Korea and America cook and serve traditional foods on their national holidays. Koreans eat ddukguk, rice cake soup, on New Year’s Day to celebrate the beginning of a new year. Americans eat turkey on Thanksgiving Day. Although observing national holidays is a similarity between their food cultures, Korean food culture differs from American food culture in terms of utensils and appliances, ingredients and cooking methods, and serving and dining manners. The first difference is in utensils and appliances. Koreans’ eating utensils are a spoon and chopsticks. Koreans mainly use chopsticks and ladles to cook side dishes and soups; also, scissors are used to cut meats and other vegetables, like kimchi. Korean food is based on rice; therefore, a rice cooker is an important appliance. Another important appliance in Korean food culture is a kimchi refrigerator. Koreans eat many fermented foods, like kimchi, soybean paste, and red chili paste. For this reason, almost every Korean household has a kimchi refrigerator, which is designed specifically to meet the storage requirements of kimchi and facilitate different fermentation processes. While Koreans use a spoon and chopsticks, Americans use a fork and a knife as main eating utensils. Americans use various cooking utensils like a spatula, tongs, spoon, whisk, peeler, and measuring cups. In addition, the main appliance for American food is an oven since American food is based on bread. A fryer, toaster, and blender are also important equipment to Ahn 2 prepare American foods.

Reviews Comparative Book Review: Chopsticks and The Land of the Five Flavors By Jacob P. Banda Food and foodways provide a valuable window into Chinese history and culture. Scholars have, until recently, not sufficiently explored them as great potential frameworks for analyzing Chinese history. They are rich potential sources of insights on a wide range of important themes that are crucial to the understanding of Chinese society, both past and present. Historians have tended to favor written sources and particularly those of social and political elites, often at the expense of studying important cultural practices and the history of daily life. The creative use of unconventional sources can reward the scholar with a richer view of daily life, with food and foodways as one of the most important dimensions.

  • Chopsticks: a Chinese Invention 507 Sopris West Six Minute Solutions Passage
    Curriculum-Based Measurement: Maze Passage: Examiner Copy Student/Classroom: _____________________ Examiner: ____________ Assessment Date: _______ Chopsticks: A Chinese Invention 507 Sopris West Six Minute Solutions Passage Chopsticks were invented in China more than 5,000 years ago. Long ago, food was chopped into (little) pieces so it would cook faster. (The) faster food cooked, the more fuel (it) would save. Since food was eaten (in) small pieces, there was no need (for) knives. Rather, chopsticks were used to (move) food from the plate to the (mouth). Confucius was a Chinese philosopher. He (was) a vegetarian. It is believed that (Confucius) did not like knives. Knives reminded (him) of the slaughterhouse. He favored chopsticks. (By) A.D.500, the use of chopsticks (had) spread to other countries. The people (in) present day Vietnam, Korea, and Japan, (as) well as China, use chopsticks today. (Chinese) chopsticks are about 9 or 10 inches long. (They) are square at the top, have (a) blunt end, and are thinner on (the) bottom. The Chinese call them kuai-ai. (This) means "quick little fellows." Chopsticks have (been) made of many materials. Bamboo is (a) popular choice since it is available, (and) inexpensive. Bamboo is also heat resistant. (Other) types of wood such as sandalwood, (cedar), and teak have also been used. (Long) ago, rich people had chopsticks made (from) jade, gold, or silver. In the (days) of the Chinese dynasty, silver chopsticks (were) used. People believed that silver would (turn) black if it touched poisoned food. (We) know now that silver will not (react) to poison.

BACTERIAL TRANSFER FROM MOUTH TO UTENSILS AND FROM UTENSIILS TO FOOD A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree Masters of Food Science, Nutrition & Culinary Science by Chaitali Purohit August 2009 Accepted by: Dr. Paul L. Dawson, Committee Chair Dr. Julie Northcutt Dr. Xiuping Jiang ABSTRACT This study examined transfer of bacteria from mouth to different surfaces (spoon, chopstick, hand) and from surfaces to food (chicken broth, rice). Three different sets of experiments were conducted. In the first experiment, bacterial transfer from mouth to utensils (spoon or chopstick) was determined. The second experiment measured bacterial transfer from mouth to broth and included scooping and stirring with a spoon. In the third experiment, bacterial transfer from mouth to food rice was tested using either spoon or hand. Ten or seven subjects were used for each of the three experiments. Results indicated that there was a transfer of approximately 5 log10cfu of total bacteria to the spoon or chopstick when either was placed in the mouth with or without food.

  • Chopsticks As a Cultural Symbol in China
    IOSR Journal of Research & Method in Education (IOSR-JRME) e-ISSN: 2320–7388,p-ISSN: 2320–737X Volume 1, Issue 4 (May. –Jun. 2013), PP 01-02 www.iosrjournals.org Chopsticks as a Cultural Symbol in China Chen Desheng & Tang Zheng Ph.D. Scholar，Department of English and Foreign Languages，Bharathiar University，Coimbatore-641046 II M.A English literature, Department of English, R.V.S College of Arts & Science, Coimbatore-641402 Abstract: Food is the soul of health. On such occasions as birthday, food becomes a cultural show in today’s society. When food from one country becomes in another, it leads a kind of cultural exchange. China has a rich tradition of food culture which has spread around the world. As a society develops, food culture too evolves resulting in variety. Each geographical location makes its own food with unique taste and flavor. Sour, sweet, bitter and hot are the tastes of various food items. Apart from being food, they tell us about the people who make it, their culture and nation. The tools which people use to eat are not only tools, but also symbols, tokens of that culture. The practice of using chopsticks has existed from ancient times among the East Asians, especially the Chinese. Made of different materials like gold, silver, copper, wood and bamboo, the chopsticks also express the artistic and aesthetic sensibility of the Chinese people. History tells us that the different colors, sizes and materials of chopsticks have specific meanings. They may stand for position, treasure, luck and so on. This paper attempts to study the importance of chopsticks as a dominant cultural symbol in China.
