Characterization

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the author develops the characterization of the Lin family by revealing that they followed Chinese traditions and their usual methods of cooking and eating. This literary device consists of developing fictional characters in a story by revealing characters' physical appearance, personality, interests, or motifs in a direct way, for example, by making straightforward statements about a character's personality or traits, or in an indirect way, by revealing a character's personality through the description of their habits, relationships, dialogues, etc.
