Chinese people eat some fresh spring vegetables on the day of the Beginning of Spring, which not only serves to prevent disease but also symbolizes welcoming the New Year. The Tang Dynasty's "Four Seasons Treasure Mirror" records: "At the beginning of spring, people eat reeds, spring pancakes, and lettuce, which is called a 'vegetable plate'." Spring pancakes are used to roll up vegetables, which include cooked and stir-fried vegetables. In the past, when eating spring rolls, people would go to a box shop and order "Su Pan" (also known as box dish). A Qing poet wrote a poem called "Biting Spring": "The warm rhythm quietly urges the spring at the end of the twelfth month, and the vegetables served at the banquet commemorate the auspicious day; the spiritual roots belong to the earth and are icy and crisp, and the thin strands are piled on the plate and cut into jade evenly. The subtle fragrance of the wine is produced by the spoon, and the clear sound of the food moves the lips and teeth; the festival food in the imperial city has the taste of the hometown garden, and I care about the new white hair." |
