中国古代胡椒的食用与医疗
A Study on the Edible and Medical Functions of Pepper in Ancient China
摘要
Abstract
Pepper is both a popular condiment and a commonly used medicinal material.It played an important role in the history of spice trade in Europe.According to historical records,reviewing import paths of pepper in different periods and its influence on the medical application as well as food culture in China,it could be concluded that pepper was introduced to China in the form of tribute from Tianzhu before the Hanhe Emperor period.In the Wei,Jin,Southern and Northern Dynasties,pepper was initially used in meat seasoning,wine making and soy sauce making.From the Sui and Tang Dynasties to the Song and Yuan Dynasties,pepper became a luxury for nobles,and the allusion of"eight hundred peppers"was widely circulated.Physicians recognized that pepper should not be abused and listed out its contraindications.During the Ming and Qing Dynasties,the sharp drop in the price of pepper made it a seasoning used by common people.At the same time,the scope of indications,usage taboos and processing methods of pepper as a medicinal material were also further developed.The introduction of pepper and research on its cultural transformation could provide references for research on the medicine food homology culture.关键词
