【双语】你好！中国 | 宋代的吃素美学

宋代，士大夫在饮食生活上重视素食，爱吃肉的苏轼把素食写得极富诗意，并将蔬菜混合白米自制“东坡羹”传世。

During the Song Dynasty, the literati placed great importance on vegetarianism in their dietary habits. Su Shi, who loved meat, poetically described vegetarian food and created a famous dish called "Dongpo Soup" by mixing vegetables with white rice.

宋代水果种类不断丰富，鲜花也走上了餐桌，出现了十来样花卉入菜的菜品。宋高宗的吴皇后喜欢吃牡丹花，牡丹和生菜拌在一起，相当于牡丹沙拉。

The variety of fruits continued to expand during this period, and flowers also made their way onto the dining table, with dishes incorporating around ten different types of flowers. Empress Wu of Emperor Gaozong in the Southern Song Dynasty enjoyed eating peony flowers, which, when mixed with lettuce, became akin to a peony salad.

南宋的美食代表陆游最喜欢荠菜，不仅为荠菜作诗，还亲自下厨制作“荠糁”，这道菜堪称其拿手绝活。

Lu You, a representative of Southern Song cuisine, particularly loved shepherd's purse. Not only did he write poetry about it, but he also personally cooked a dish called "Ji San", which became one of his signature specialties.
