What traditional food should we eat during Cold Dew? What are the customs of the Cold Dew solar term? Cold Dew is the seventeenth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms and the fifth solar term in autumn, marking the official end of the autumn season. Nine is a yang number and also the largest number. On the ninth day of the ninth month in the lunar calendar, both the month and the day are yang, so it is called "Double Ninth Festival". I spent the ninth lunar month of 2019 with Mr. Shui Mo.What traditional food should we eat during Cold Dew?Eating Flower Cake <br /> As the weather gets colder, the trees and flowers are about to wither, so people call this "saying goodbye to green". On the ninth day of the ninth month, people climb mountains and eat flower cakes. Because "cake" and "high" are homophones in Chinese, people use "eating cakes" instead of "climbing mountains" to express their wishes for themselves or their relatives and friends to be safe, auspicious and successful in everything.Eat sesame seeds <br /> When Cold Dew arrives, the weather turns from cool to cold. According to the traditional Chinese medicine theory of "nourishing yang in spring and summer, nourishing yin in autumn and winter". At this time, people should nourish yin, prevent dryness, moisten the lungs and benefit the stomach. Therefore, the custom of "eating sesame seeds during Cold Dew" came into being among the people. In Beijing, sesame-related foods become popular items around the time of Cold Dew, such as sesame crisps, sesame and mung bean cakes, and sesame baked buns. Eating crabs <br /> The customs of Cold Dew in old Nanjing include eating crabs and packing up summer clothes. There is also a saying that goes "Cold Dew begins, Frost falls, the west wind blows, and crab feet itch." Crabs will taste better when the weather gets cold. "The belly button is round in September and pointed in October." Now is the best season to eat female crabs, with full eggs and rich yellow roe. After the tenth month of the lunar calendar, male crabs will become the most delicious. What are the customs of the Cold Dew solar term?Climbing:After White Dew, the weather turns cooler and dew begins to appear. During Cold Dew, the dew increases and the temperature drops even lower. At this time, frost will occur in some areas of our country. The north has entered late autumn, with white clouds and red leaves, and occasional early frost. The south is also entering autumn, with cicadas silent and lotus leaves withered. The people in Guanzhong have a more popular custom of climbing heights. Mount Hua, Qinling Mountains, Cuihua Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain, etc. are all good places for climbing. The Double Ninth Festival for climbing heights will attract even more tourists.
