The weather characteristics of Xiaohan are: the weather is gradually getting colder, but it is not very cold yet. As the saying goes, "The coldest days are in the 39th day of winter." Since the 39th day of winter is basically within this solar term, there is a saying that "Minor Cold is better than Major Cold." According to China's meteorological data, Minor Cold is the solar term with the lowest temperature, and only in a few years does the temperature of Major Cold fall below that of Minor Cold. During the Lesser Cold season, most parts of my country have entered a period of severe cold, with the soil frozen and rivers frozen. In addition, cold air from the north continues to move south, and the weather is so cold that people call it the "Nine Days of Cold". Although the temperature in the south of my country is not as cold as in the north, the temperature has dropped significantly. The coldest time in the south is the period between Minor Cold and Rain Water and Waking of Insects. It is dry and cold during the Lesser Cold, and it is wet and cold after the Rain. The period of Minor Cold happens to be the coldest time of the year, so Minor Cold is generally considered to be the coldest period of the year. Why do we eat glutinous rice during Xiaohan?There is a Guangdong proverb that goes, "It's cold even without wind during the Lesser Cold and the Greater Cold." It is a traditional custom to eat glutinous rice in the morning of the Lesser Cold and the Greater Cold to ward off the cold.According to folk tradition, glutinous rice has a higher sugar content than rice. Eating it will make the whole body feel warm and help drive away the cold. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, glutinous rice has the effect of nourishing the middle and replenishing qi, and it is most suitable to eat glutinous rice in cold seasons. The elderly said that it is helpful in dispersing dampness and cold, so this tradition has been created. The Lesser Cold and Greater Cold seasons are a great opportunity for people to improve their physical fitness and strengthen their diet . In the old days, poor families did not have more nutritious foods to eat, so eating a bowl of glutinous rice regularly from the Lesser Cold and Greater Cold was considered a way to nourish the body. The Lesser Cold and Greater Cold seasons are a great opportunity for people to improve their physical fitness and strengthen their diet.
