Sichuan
In Chengdu, China, on April 14, 2025, workers drain water from large earthenware jars in a Lao Tan Zi factory warehouse, where vegetables ferment using methods passed down for millennia. This ancestral know-how, deeply rooted in Sichuan culture, relies on precise techniques and strict fermentation times. Inside the jars, cabbage, radishes, and beans slowly transform, developing the tangy and umami flavors typical of the local cuisine. (Photo by Emeric Fohlen/NurPhoto)
