Features: Jing cuisine is a major culinary system, alongside Huaiyang, Chuanxiang, and Min-Yue, forming China's Four Great Culinary Systems. "Local cuisine" refers to dishes originating from rural communities, popular among them, and having a certain influence. Rooted deeply in the homes of ordinary villagers, local cuisine is akin to folklore, limited by its dissemination conditions and the research community. Studying local cuisine is not only necessary for adapting to the market economy but also essential for understanding the development of Chinese cooking.
