The poems about food are as follows:
1. "The Fisherman on the River" Song Dynasty: Fan Zhongyan.
Original text: People come and go on the river, but they love the beauty of sea bass. You see, a boat is in and out of the storm.
Translation: Pedestrians coming and going on the river only like the delicious seabass. Look at that small fishing boat, disappearing and appearing in the roaring waves.
2. "Ode to Pork" Song Dynasty: Su Shi.
Original text: Clean the pan, use less water, and the firewood will not smoke. Don't rush him until he matures. When the heat is sufficient, he will be beautiful. Huangzhou's good pork is as cheap as dirt. The rich don't want to eat, the poor don't know how to cook. They get up in the morning and take two bowls, so full that the king doesn't care.
Translation: Wash the pot, add a little water, light firewood and weeds, suppress the fire, and simmer it with a virtual fire that does not emit flames. Wait for it to cook slowly on its own, don't rush it, when the heat is enough, it will naturally taste delicious.
There is such good pork in Huangzhou, but the price is as cheap as dirt; rich people don’t want to eat it, and poor people don’t know how to cook it. I'll make two bowls of it when I get up in the morning. Don't worry about it when I'm full.

4. "Yu Gezi: Egrets Flying in Front of Xisai Mountain" Tang Dynasty: Zhang Zhihe.
Original text: Egrets fly in front of Xisai Mountain, and mandarin fish are fat in the peach blossoms and flowing water. Green bamboo hat, green coir raincoat, slanting wind and drizzle do not need to return.
Translation: Egrets are flying freely in front of Xisai Mountain, peach blossoms are in full bloom on the river banks, the spring water is rising, and mandarin fish are plump in the water. The fisherman, wearing a green bamboo hat and a green raincoat, fished leisurely in the slanting wind and drizzle, and did not go home even when it rained.
5. "The First Bamboo Shoots Presented in a Seat" Tang Dynasty: Li Shangyin.
Original text: When the fragrant buds of tender bamboo shoots emerge from the forest for the first time, their price in the mausoleum is as heavy as gold. There are countless people in the land and sea of ??the imperial capital who can't bear to cut Ling Yun's heart even an inch.
Translation: Young bamboo shoots, fragrant buds - new bamboo shoots just emerged from the bamboo forest. Get it and negotiate the price in Yuling City - it is more valuable than gold. There are so many bamboo groves near the capital that I can't bear to cut off a piece of Ling Yun's new bamboo shoots.
