Time

There are numerous Chinese food making tutorial videos online, but Li Ziqis stands out. Why? It is because in her videos, the food making is not just pure cooking of any recipe, but presenting the whole process from planting, harvesting to cooking and eating.


She follows the traditional Chinese ideas about obeying nature and making use of it, which also displays the harmony between human beings and nature, and the survival wisdom of humans. All her videos can be classified according to the four seasons. Whatever grows best in this season, she just makes use of the essence of this time and make the classical Chinese food or create something new. If its on special solar terms or big Chinese festivals, she also makes special seasonal food for that special day. For example, Chinese people usually make a big feast on the Spring Festival night.

In recording the whole process, each of her most videos would take 2 or even 3 years to complete. You can easily feel the peace and greatness from the flowing time and the sense of achievement when the final products are done.



Beauty

I believe many of the audiences are attracted by the amazing scenery and the natural environment she lives in. Its based in deep mountains of Mianyang, Sichuan province . Sichuan has its reputation of food abundance which located in a basin with humid weather. Consequently, its not hard for her to find various natural materials to create what she wants. There are splendid flowers and productive fruits in each season, which are all the blessings of nature. Of course, Li Ziqi also plants and raised whatever she needs around her house such as corps, vegetables, sheep, chicken, etc. All the materials she used are made of wood or iron, basically no plastic products or something harmful to the natural environment. And she often wears her traditional style of Chinese clothes and rides a horse to pick up things like vegetables or flowers in the mountain which also constructs the scene of beauty. Its such a balance of traditional and modern life.


Culture

People admire Li Ziqi, besides the beautiful views and the amazing environment she is living in, especially because her videos fully explain the Chinese peoples traditional concept of family and the Taoist thought of harmony between humans and nature. She also made many national intangible cultural heritages from scratch which have been created for thousands of years and considered as the precious of Chines culture.


Besides the specialty from her hometown Sichuan like the spicy hotpot, she also makes some other classical food from other areas of China, such as very famous river snail rice noodle from Liuzhou Guangxi (lus fn)the drunk crabs from Jiangsu (zu xi) and etc. These videos make you feel interested in this wonderful local food and places around China.



Lifestyle

Im just filming my life, Li Ziqi says. Or rather, Im just filming the life that I want. This is the exact lifestyle she wants to live.


She makes people experience life in the countryside which people living in modern society lack. Especially for the people living in modern cities, Li Ziqis videos would be like exploring an ideal lifestyle with nature. She seems able to make everything and could be anyone. In her life, she is a chef, an engineer, a carpenter, a farmer, a gardener, and a creator. Watching her life is also satisfying the audiences personal ideal roles. Whats more, her videos seem to have no anxiety worries and misgivings which is exactly what the status of contemporary people strive for.
