The green dumplings are as green as jade, glutinous and soft, with a refreshing fragrance. They taste sweet but not greasy, and fat but not plump. Qingtuanzi is also an essential food for people in the Jiangnan area to worship their ancestors. Because of this, Qingtuanzi is particularly important in the folk food customs in the Jiangnan area. This custom can be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty more than two thousand years ago. According to the "Book of Zhou", there was a law at that time that "in the second half of spring, a wooden bell was used to announce the fire ban in the country", so the people stopped cooking and observed "Cold Food Festival for three days". During the Cold Food Festival, one or two days before Weiming Festival is designated as the "Cold Day Festival". A new stage of life has already begun in 2020.
