我怀着无比自豪与荣幸的心情，呈现这本食谱。这是一次发自内心的努力，旨在庆祝并传承嘉应
客家社区的饮食文化遗产。
客家菜不仅仅是食物，它更是一段关于坚韧、适应力以及与根源深深连接的故事。这本书中的每
一道菜谱，都诉说着我们的祖先如何以智慧将普通的食材转化为经得起时间考验的美味佳肴和营养餐
点。这本食谱集不仅是我们身份的生动见证，也是连接过去与未来的一座桥梁。
这本食谱不仅是一份烹饪指南，更是一座文化桥梁，邀请大家共同体验嘉应客家传统的精髓。我
衷心感谢作者和编辑们的奉献，正是他们的努力，才让我们丰富的文化遗产得以记录并传承给后代。
当你翻阅这些食谱时，希望你品尝的不仅是味道，还有其中蕴含的故事、传统与深情。这是一份
珍贵的遗产，让我们共同珍惜这一文化瑰宝，庆祝我们的嘉应客家根源，并继续推动与保护我们的独

特文化。
值得一提的是，我们的槟城嘉应会馆是槟城——甚至可能是马来西亚——最古老的会馆之一。
尽管确切的成立日期已无法考证，但根据历史文献和文物推测，其历史可追溯到1801年之前，这距离
1786年莱特船长建立槟城不久。这段悠久的历史进一步凸显了保护文化遗产并将其与世人分享的重要
性。

It is with great pride and honor that I present this recipe book, a heartfelt endeavor to celebrate
and preserve the culinary heritage of the Kar Yin Hakka community.
Hakka cuisine is more than just food—it is a story of resilience, adaptability, and deep connec-
tions to our roots. Every recipe within these pages tells a tale of our ancestors’ ingenuity and their
ability to transform humble ingredients into flavorful and nourishing dishes that have stood the test

of time. This collection serves as a vivid reminder of our identity, a bridge connecting us to our past
while embracing the future.
This recipe book is not only a culinary guide but also a cultural bridge, inviting everyone to ex-
perience the essence of Kar Yin Hakka traditions. I commend the author and editors for their dedica-
tion to ensuring that our rich heritage is documented and shared for generations to come.
As you explore these recipes, may you taste not just the flavors but also the stories, traditions,
and love that have been poured into this collection. Let us cherish this legacy, celebrate our Kar Yin
Hakka roots, and continue to promote and preserve our unique culture.
It is worth noting that our Penang Kar Yin Fee Kon Association is one of the oldest associations

in Penang—if not in Malaysia. Although the exact date of its establishment cannot be ascertained,
historical documents and artifacts suggest that it dates back to before 1801, not long after Captain
Francis Light founded Penang in 1786. This rich history further underscores the importance of pre-
serving our cultural heritage and sharing it with the world.
