Writing : Cooking
Cooking is different from place to place. In China, for example, there are three or four distinguished families of dish cooking. Sichuan, Yangzhou, Guangdong and Shanghai. While Sichuan dishes are noted for their flavor of pepper, Shanghai dishes are known for their sweetness.
Various ways of cooking are somewhat related to the taste. People in North and Central China prefer Sichuan dishes because they like to have hot and sour things. People in South China, and especially those around Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces enjoy Shanghai dishes more than others because they love to taste the fresh and sweet.
Cooking is always a pleasure. Few people include cooking when they complain of housework. In fact, every family has at least one amateur cook who is often proud of running the routine. Maybe the pleasant flavor is not resisting.
