What to eat during the beginning of winter?

Eat dumplings on the beginning of winter
In terms of food customs, most people in the north eat dumplings on the day of the Beginning of Winter.
Because the word "dumplings" originated from the saying "the time of Jiaozi". New Year’s Eve marks the transition between the old year and the new year, and the Beginning of Winter marks the transition between autumn and winter, so dumplings must be eaten at the time of “transition”.
Also, because my country is an agricultural country, we attach great importance to the 24 solar terms. "Session" refers to the new growth point of plants.
Harvest in autumn and store for winter. On this day, in order to improve our lives, we chose “nothing tastes better than dumplings”. Nowadays people have gradually restored this ancient custom, and on the day of the Beginning of Winter, all kinds of dumplings are selling very well.
Eat squash on the beginning of winter
In ancient times, people ate pumpkin dumplings on the beginning of winter. At the beginning of winter, it is rare to buy melons at the market.
This kind of melon is bought in the summer and stored in the cottage or on the windowsill. After a long period of saccharification, it is used as dumpling filling. The taste is different from that of cabbage and also different from the melon filling in summer. It should be eaten with vinegar and rotten garlic to have a unique flavor.
Why do we eat loquat on the beginning of winter? In ancient times, people believed that melons represented fruitfulness, so there is a saying in "The Book of Rites" that "eating melons is also a way of offering sacrifice to ancestors."
Eat chicken, duck, fish and meat to nourish the body during the Beginning of Winter.
With the arrival of the Beginning of Winter, the grass and trees wither, the insects hibernate, and all activities of all things come to a halt. They hibernate to conserve energy and prepare for the vitality of the coming spring. Although humans do not hibernate, there is a folk custom of replenishing oneself in winter. This is the best time for people to take supplementary food and replenish their energy to resist the severe cold of winter.
In southern my country, the way to replenish winter nutrition on the day of Beginning of Winter is to eat chicken, duck, fish, etc. There is a saying that goes "Eat nourishment at the beginning of winter and fill your empty stomach" which is the best metaphor.
In Taiwan, on the day of the Beginning of Winter, street restaurants selling winter tonic delicacies such as mutton hotpot and ginger duck are packed with guests. Many families also stew sesame oil chicken and four-ingredient chicken to replenish energy.
When replenishing your body in winter, you should eat less raw and cold food, especially avoid excessive amounts of food. Most people can eat some high-calorie foods appropriately, especially in the north, they can eat some beef and mutton, but at the same time they should also eat more fresh vegetables and some foods rich in vitamins and easy to digest.

Analysis on the Three Signs of Beginning of Winter

In ancient my country, the Beginning of Winter solar term was divided into three periods of five days, and three signs were determined from them: "The first sign is when the water begins to freeze; the second sign is when the ground begins to freeze; the third sign is when pheasants enter the water and become clams."
During this solar term, water has already frozen into ice; the land also begins to freeze; the pheasant in the third sign "pheasant enters the big water and turns into clams" refers to large birds such as pheasants, and clams are large clams. After the beginning of winter, large birds such as pheasants are rarely seen, but large clams with shells similar in lines and colors to pheasants can be seen on the seashore. Therefore, the ancients believed that pheasants would turn into big clams after the beginning of winter.
