As White Dew arrives, autumn dryness sets in. The days turn cooler and the nights colder, a fitting season to nourish the body with duck. 

白露至，秋燥起，此时昼凉夜寒，正是“食鸭温补”的时节。

For people of the Central Plains, the pursuit of nourishment and well-being has never been limited to medicinal cuisine. This respect for the changing seasons, and this care for the health and well-being of loved ones, have been preserved from generation to generation by artisans along the Yiluo River, and slowly simmered into a pot of time-honored flavor.

中原人对“养”与“安”的追寻，从来不止于药膳，这份对天时更迭的顺应，对家人康泰的挂念，被伊洛河畔的匠人代代守护，缓缓煨进了一锅至味里。

A mature duck is placed into the pot, glazed with flaxseed oil and slowly simmered over a gentle flame. Only after hours of patient waiting does its rich, mellow aroma fully emerge.

老鸭入锅，以麻油润色，以文火慢煨，几个时辰的等候，方得一味醇厚浓香。

When the aroma of flaxseed oil duck drifts along the banks of the Yiluo River, this century-old local flavor speaks through the most patient and devoted use of fire, telling of the Central Plains people's respect for the seasons and devotion to the taste of home.

当麻油鸭的香气漫过伊洛河岸，这道传承百年的老味道正以恰到好处的火候，讲述着中原人对天时的敬重，对家味的执守。

May this White Dew season bring you someone who asks whether your porridge is warm, and someone who stays by your side as the sun sets. May the warmth of everyday life stay with you, year after year, just as it did at the beginning.

愿这个白露时节，有人问你粥可温，有人陪你立黄昏；愿这人间烟火，岁岁暖你如初。
