With the rapid development of the modern catering industry, public awareness of dietary nutrition has significantly increased. Cooking method and the change of nutritional content of Chinese cuisine is a key issue in culinary science, and scientific and reasonable cooking method is essential for preserving the nutrients of the dishes. A comprehensive and systematic understanding of the characteristics of cooking methods is essential for elucidating its mechanism and minimizing nutrient loss during cooking. This paper reviewed recent research progress on the effect of cooking method on the nutritional content of Chinese cuisine. Analysis of the relevant literature demonstrated that cooking, as an important stage of food processing, not only altered the flavour and the texture of the dishes but also significantly effected their nutrient composition. This paper systematically examined the effect of water-based and oil-based cooking methods on the nutritional content of plant-based, animal-based and fungal-algal dishes in Chinese cuisine, so as to provide valuable insights for scientific cooking practices and nutritional dietary, which also offering critical data references for establishing intelligent nutrition databases.
