Synopsis

The emperor named him the top scholar in the palace, but he went straight home to cook. Su Yuning, a modern-day food critic, transmigrated into the body of a newly appointed scholar, intent on lying flat and savoring the taste of simple, natural food. But one pot of cured pork and fresh bamboo shoots brought a retired statesman back to tears, while a plate of victory cakes helped the soldiers at the front rout the enemy. Using menus inspired by the seasons, he simmered soups and cooked dishes, soothing the appetites of both ruler and ministers without a fuss and quietly reshaping the court.

Looking for Food Novels! Incredible Cooking! Everything Looks Delicious!

Food novels! Modern-day or period settings are both fine. The protagonist should have amazing cooking skills, and running a street stall or opening a restaurant are both fine. I would like the process to be described in detail, preferably with food names as the chapter titles. Most importantly, there has to be a romantic pairing. I love watching other people fall in love, and romance and making money should both be part of the story.
