The snow becomes heavy at that time, so it is named the festival.” In ancient my country, Heavy Snow was divided into three stages.The first sign: the cuckoos and gulls stop singing. Because of the cold weather, the cuckoo birds no longer sing. The second sign: Tiger knows how to make friends. Since this is the time when Yin energy is at its peak, as the saying goes, everything rises and then declines, Yang energy has begun to stir, and the tigers begin to show courtship behavior. The third sign: lychees emerge. "Li Ting" is a kind of orchid. They also feel the emergence of Yang energy and sprout new buds. 1. Eating mutton during heavy snow "Nourish yourself in winter and fight the tiger in spring." The heavy snow reminds people to start nourishing themselves. The role of nourishing themselves is to improve the body's immune function, promote metabolism, improve the phenomenon of fear of cold, and spend the winter healthily. Old Nanjing people like to eat mutton during heavy snow to dispel the cold, nourish the body, replenish qi and strengthen the body, promote blood circulation and enhance the ability to resist the cold. Lamb can also increase digestive enzymes and aid digestion. Experts suggest that when eating mutton for tonic in winter, you can mix it with yam, wolfberry, etc. to make it more nutritious. As for the northern ethnic groups, it is already quite cold at this time. For example, there is a saying in Baotou that goes "Kill pigs in Minor Snow and slaughter sheep in Heavy Snow". When the heavy snow season comes, it is time to slaughter pigs and prepare New Year's goods. At this time, no matter who slaughters livestock, relatives and friends will come to help, and the host will prepare food, wine, and side dishes for the banquet. Therefore, the light snow and heavy snow seasons are the time for family and friends to reminisce and keep in touch. 2. Eat red sticky porridge during heavy snow. After a heavy snow, the temperature gradually becomes colder. People pay great attention to keeping warm both inside and outside the house, and put on winter clothes to prevent cold and frostbite. There is a saying among the people in northern Shandong that "when the roller is against the door, people will just drink red sticky porridge", which means that when it is cold, people will no longer visit other people's homes, but just stay at home and drink warm sweet potato porridge. Porridge can nourish the stomach and spleen, moisten the lungs and is an excellent choice for health preservation. Millet porridge has the effects of nourishing yin and blood, soothing the stomach and promoting sleep, while sweet potatoes are also known to have the effects of "replenishing deficiency, increasing energy, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and strengthening kidney yin", making people "live longer and have fewer diseases". 3. Eating dog meat during heavy snow As the saying goes, "selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton", in fact, Wenzhou people have always believed that "fragrant meat in winter warms the stomach", and this fragrant meat is dog meat. The cold winter season is the best time to eat dog meat for nourishment. It is recorded in the "Da Ming Materia Medica" that "yellow dog meat is very beneficial to humans, and other colors are slightly nourishing." It is said that a weak child who has drowned in bed can recover after eating dog meat once or twice. In the past, many families in Wenzhou gave dog meat to each other as a gift as a supplement for postpartum women. 4. Eat sugar during the heavy snow "Candy customers, please take your time carrying the candy, and take a break with the big group." Around the "Daxue" solar term, a scene of "exchanging candy" will appear on the streets of Wenzhou. Maltose workshops in various places will provide the whole sheets of maltose they produce to small vendors who carry them on their shoulders and walk around the streets, commonly known as "tangerke". The "sugar man" bangs the sugar knife while shouting to sell candies. Children are often attracted to it, and parents would bring copper scraps, copper coins and other items at home to exchange with the "sugar guests" for maltose. Since eating maltose in winter has the benefits of nourishing the body, nowadays "adding sugar" has developed into a business operation. |
