What to eat during the Frost Descent solar term - Persimmons <br /> In some places in China, people eat red persimmons during the Frost Descent solar term. In the eyes of local people, this not only keeps people warm, but also helps to strengthen their bones and muscles. It is a very good food for the Frost Descent solar term. The old people in Quanzhou say that eating persimmons during the Frost's Descent will prevent a runny nose. In some places, the explanation for this custom is: you must eat persimmons on the day of Frost's Descent, otherwise your lips will be chapped throughout the winter.

What to eat during the Frost Descent solar term - White pomelo <br /> During the Frost Descent solar term, the second-stage rice in southern Taiwan has matured and is ready for harvest. It is also the harvest season for white pomelo in Madou Town, Tainan. The large white pomelo, known as the "king of pomelo", is more highly regarded than pomelo, hence the saying "experts eat white pomelo and laymen eat pomelo". The best quality white pomelo tastes sour with a hint of sweetness, and tastes even better if dipped in plum powder. Because the fruit is sweet and juicy, it can be eaten by patients with hot coughs and diabetes. It also has the effects of sobering up, lowering blood pressure, reducing fever, and restoring physical strength.
What to eat during the Frost Descent solar term - Beef <br /> In many places in mainland China, there is a custom of eating beef during the Frost Descent solar term. For example, in Yulin, Guangxi, residents are accustomed to eating beef noodle soup for breakfast and beef fried with radish or beef brisket stew for lunch or dinner on the day of Frost's Descent to replenish energy and pray for warmth and strength in the winter. In addition to beef, mutton and rabbit meat are also suitable for Frost Descent.
What to eat during the Frost Descent solar term - Radish <br /> A Shandong farmer's proverb says: "During the Beginning of Heat, sorghum is harvested; during the White Dew, valley is harvested; during the Frost Descent, radishes are harvested." During this season, radishes that have been frozen by frost are the most delicious, and radishes in October are also known as small ginseng.
There is a folk proverb that goes, "Eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, and you won't need a doctor to prescribe medicine." This saying not only explains that radish is a seasonal vegetable in winter, but also reveals its therapeutic effects. In cold and dry weather, eating radish can not only replenish water for the human body, but also promote appetite and aid digestion. It can improve diseases such as stomach bloating, cough with sputum, chest tightness and asthma, and colds.

These small proverbs fully express the importance that the people of Fujian and Taiwan attach to the Frost Descent solar term. Therefore, every Frost Descent season, ducks in Fujian and Taiwan will sell like hot cakes, and sometimes they will be out of stock and in short supply.
