Chopsticks, A Cultural and Culinary History by Professor Q. Edward Wang
Includes bibliographical references (pages 176-184) and index “Chopsticks have become a quintessential part of the Japanese, Chinese and Korean culinary experience across the globe, with more than one fifth of the world’s population using them daily to eat. In this vibrant, highly original account of the history of chopsticks, Q. Edward Wang charts their evolution from a simple eating implement in ancient times to their status as a much more complex, cultural symbol today. “– |
