PREPAREMAKE
Old Chinese Criteria
1. The standard word for a person in charge of the preparation of food is páo 庖. 2. Zǎi 宰 often refers to what appears to be a kind of head butler serving up formal meals, but the meaning of this word is often difficult to distinguish from the other function of "head official, head administrator". 3. Perhaps the most general word for preparing food is chuī 炊. See BOIL, ROAD, FRY, STIR-FRY, GRILL, STEAM, BAKE NB: There is a strikingly large number of binomes like páo rén 庖人 and páo zǎi 庖宰 referring to the cook in ancient China.
