Who it's for
A good fit for
- Cooking enthusiasts interested in traditional Western home cooking and vegetable dishes

Not a good fit for
- Those expecting modern nutritional guidance or precise gram measurements
- Beginners who only want recipe books with pictures and intuitive steps
- Readers who need a Chinese translation and do not want to read the English original
Reading tips
- Browse the table of contents first and pick chapters on vegetables you know to try, reducing the unfamiliarity of English recipes.
- Note steps that differ from contemporary practice as you read, forming a small record of dietary change.
- Actually try one or two dishes with simple ingredients, then adjust heat and seasoning against a modern recipe.

About the author
Anonymous is a collective designation used in English-language publishing for works whose authorship is unknown or unsigned, rather than the real name of a single author. The 716 titles attributed to this name include the Gospel of John, Psalms, Romans, Luke, Philippians, and 1 Corinthians from the World English Bible, as well as the Gospel of John and Psalms from the King James Version. Such texts are mainly religious classics and ancient folk traditions that were copied, translated, and compiled over long periods, making their original authors difficult to trace; they therefore circulated anonymously. Public information is limited, and neither nationality nor dates of birth and death can be confirmed. The significance of anonymity lies in focusing attention on the works themselves rather than on authorial identity, and in reminding readers of the collective and variable nature of texts in transmission.
