Dahan means the New Year is approaching <br /> Unlike other solar terms, Dahan falls at the end of the year. In the next short period of more than ten days, there are often many traditional festivals, such as Laba, the year-end party, Little New Year, Spring Festival, etc.People are filled with joy as they prepare to welcome the New Year, which is enough to melt the chill of late winter. At this time, everyone will forget the cold of winter, and the air will be filled with a joyful and relaxed atmosphere. "Sweeping the house in the twelfth lunar month" is an inherent tradition among the people. Sweep the dust, take out the trash, paint the walls, and make the house clean inside and out to welcome the New Year. In addition to sweeping the house, getting rid of the old and decorating with the new, people also have to go to the New Year market, prepare New Year goods, write Spring Festival couplets, pickle sausages and bacon, or prepare various New Year dishes. All of this is for the moment when the whole family can sit together and reunite. At the same time, it is also essential to prepare various sacrificial items to worship ancestors and various gods and pray for good weather and good harvests in the coming year. Especially in rural areas, the "Tail-Gong Festival" is held every time the Great Cold arrives. The year-end party originated from the custom of worshipping the God of Land as the “tooth”. The so-called February 2nd is the first tooth, and from then on every second and sixteenth day of the lunar month, "tooth" will be held. The sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month is the last tooth. When worshiping the God of Land at the year-end party, an offering table will be set up in front of the God of Land’s shrine. An offering table will also be set up at the entrance or back door to worship the earth god. The offerings for the sacrifice include sacrificial animals, four kinds of fruits, and spring rolls. However, today, the year-end tooth festival has gradually withdrawn from the Great Cold custom. The tradition of the year-end tooth festival is only preserved in some areas of China, such as the coastal areas of Fujian and Taiwan. 2. Great Cold, which means the beginning of spring <br /> As the saying goes: "Flowers and trees control the seasons, and birds sing to herald the farming season." Flowers, trees, birds and animals all carry out regular activities according to the seasons, and therefore they are also seen as important symbols for distinguishing the seasons. In ancient China, the Great Cold was divided into three stages: the first stage is that chickens lay eggs, the second stage is that migratory birds fly fast, and the third stage is that the bellies of birds in marshes become hard. The first phase is the emergence of chicken milk, which refers to the period after the Great Cold when the Yang energy rises significantly, the spring energy begins to sprout, and chicks can be hatched. The second phase refers to migratory birds, such as hawks and falcons, which are in a state of extremely strong hunting ability. They are more fierce and swift, hovering in the air looking for food everywhere to replenish their body energy to resist the severe cold. The third phase is when the belly of the water becomes solid, meaning that the ice in the water is frozen all the way to the center of the water, frozen through from top to bottom and extremely cold. It is at this time that it is the most solid and thick, and children can enjoy skating and playing on the river. Spring water will emerge from deep within the solid ice, and when it is frozen to the extreme, it will gradually begin to melt. 3. Great Cold, which means eating tonic food to keep fat <br /> When you are away from home, you will miss home especially much in the cold winter. As the Great Cold approaches, I think about the dishes my mother will cook when I go home for the New Year, which will comfort my stomach that has been ravaged by takeout food like spring. The Great Cold and the Beginning of Spring meet, so naturally our diet should also adapt to the changes of seasons. At this time, the amount of tonic food in the three winter months should be gradually reduced, and some foods with a dispersing nature should be appropriately added to adapt to the growth of all things in spring. ——Eight Treasure Rice Pudding In Guangdong, there is a custom of eating glutinous rice during the Great Cold. In the past, poor families had poor conditions for protecting themselves from the cold, and they did not have many nutritious foods to eat. Eating a bowl of glutinous rice from the Great Cold is a great tonic for the body. Steam the glutinous rice, mix it with sugar, lard and osmanthus, pour it into a container filled with red dates, coix seeds, lotus seeds, longan meat and other fruit ingredients, steam it and then pour the sugar sauce on it to make eight-treasure rice pudding. Glutinous rice is warm in nature and sweet in taste. It has the effects of replenishing deficiency and blood, strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, and resisting cold and nourishing. ——White radish soup The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine advocates "nourishing yang in spring and summer, and nourishing yin in autumn and winter." At this time, you should eat more seasonal vegetables such as radish and cabbage that nourish yin. What's more, as the saying goes: "Eat radishes in winter and ginger in summer, and you don't need a doctor to prescribe medicine." The "radish" here mainly refers to white radish. White radish contains a lot of water, as well as a certain amount of dietary fiber, vitamin A, carotene, calcium and other minerals and biologically active substances. Eating it can promote digestion and reduce inflammation. --chicken soup Drinking chicken soup for health preservation in winter is really a great enjoyment. The traditional food custom of "one chicken for one meal" has not been abandoned. For example, Nanjing people will choose the best old hens, and stew them alone or add nourishing ingredients such as wolfberry, ginseng, and black fungus to stew together. At this time, adding different Chinese medicinal materials to the chicken soup can play the role of "medicinal food": it is both nourishing and therapeutic, can regulate immunity, prevent colds, and has the effect of beautifying the skin. ——Laba porridge A few days after the Great Cold comes "Laba", which is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. This is a very important festival for northerners. On this day, people use grains, peanuts, chestnuts, red dates, lotus seeds, etc. to cook a pot of sweet and warm Laba porridge. It is also from this day that every household begins to pickle Laba garlic. Soak it until the first day of the Lunar New Year, then pour it out and dip it in with dumplings when eating. It has a unique flavor. ——"Cold-eliminating Cake" The custom of eating "Xiao Han Gao" has a long history in Beijing. It is a kind of rice cake. Because glutinous rice has a higher sugar content than rice, you will feel warm all over after eating it. It can dispel wind and cold, moisten the lungs and strengthen the spleen and stomach. Eating rice cakes during the Great Cold also means "getting older", representing good luck, peace every year, and continuous advancement. |
