In ancient China, kitchens were an essential part of every household. While glass-front cabinet drawers were not used during this time, Chinese kitchens were equipped with various storage options. Chinese kitchens had wooden cabinets and shelves to store their cooking utensils, pottery, and food items. The kitchen was often located at the back of the house, away from the main living areas. Chinese kitchens had a hearth for cooking, and they used a variety of cooking techniques, including stir-frying, steaming, and boiling. The Chinese had a diverse culinary tradition, with a focus on balancing flavors and textures. They used a wide range of ingredients, including rice, noodles, vegetables, meat, and seafood, to create delicious and nutritious meals.
