Q# n7 b0 C/ SMost Peranakan are of Hokkien ancestry, although a fair denomination of them are of the Teochew or Cantonese descent. Written records from the 19th and early 20th centuries show that Peranakan men usually took brides from within the local Peranakan community. Peranakan families also commonly imported brides from China and sent their daughters to China to find husbands. A small group of Indian Peranakans, known as the Chitty, does exist as well. 8 f1 T% h! v; R* K1 N1 P1 K- _公仔箱論壇公仔箱論壇5 [1 c0 R: o6 c. q9 t* g

The origin of the Baba and Nyonya could be traced all the way back to the Chinese Ming Dynasty which is about more than 4 centuries ago.
It was the Princess Han Bao-li that left China to get married with the Sultan (King) of Malacca. The marriage established a kinship and diplomatic relationship between the two nations. At the same time, the famous Admiral Zheng He also stopped by Malacca and Singapore to make his diplomatic visits during his seven epic voyages to the South. These trips attained mutual communication and successfully paved the way for international trade thereafter.

Since then, many Chinese people started trading with or working in Malacca, Penang and Singapore. Some of them even settled down in these coastal cities and as most of these migrants were male, they started marrying the local Malay women which produced a unique culture. Their sons were then called "Baba" and their daughters were called "Nyonya".

Brought up in the cultural background and living habits of the both races, the Malay speaking Babas and Nyonyas in their "sarong" outfits not only keep their Chinese names, but also got accustomed to worshipping their ancestors and eating pork like every Chinese do. In addition, they also inherited the Chinese conventional idea of "men leaving the house to work and women staying at home". Thus, Nyonyas were all culinary experts before marriage and this was exactly the origin of Nyonya cuisine.

Nyonya food is also known as the Straits Chinese food which is an interesting amalgamation of Chinese and Malay dishes thought to have originated from the Peranakan (Straits Chinese) of Malacca. Besides Malacca, Nyonya food is also native to Penang and Singapore. However, over the years, distinct differences have evolved in the Nyonya recipes found in Penang than that in Malacca and Singapore due to the proximity of Malacca and Singapore to Indonesia and Penang to Thailand.

K0 A ~ _% c Influences aside, Nyonya recipes are complicated affairs, often requiring many hours of preparation and is about the blending of spices, using pungent roots like galangal, turmeric and ginger; aromatic leaves like pandan leaf and fragrant lime leaf together with other ingredients like candlenuts, shallots, shrimps paste and chilies. Lemon, tamarind, carambola and green mangoes are used to add a tangy taste to many dishes. For dessert, fruits are seldom served but instead colorful cakes are served. Nyonya cakes are rich and varied, often made from ingredients like sweet potato, glutinous rice, palm sugar and coconut milk.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。9 Y, E* r0 k' q+ k' M' \; V6 i

The language of the Peranakans, Baba Malay (Bahasa Melayu Baba), is a creole dialect of the Malay Language (Bahasa Melayu), which contains many of the words from the Chinese Hokkien dialect. It is a dying language, and its contemporary use is mainly limited to members of the older generation. English has now replaced this as the main language spoken amongst the younger generation. D: O, t6 |3 ZYoung Peranakans have lost many of their language, so there is normally a difference in vocabulary between the older and younger generations.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。0 O1 C- M2 f' M" }# u
