What are the taboos to eat during the Cold Dew solar term? What are the customs of Cold Dew?
Introduction: Different solar terms represent future changes, and diet also needs to be adjusted. So what are the food taboos during the Cold Dew solar term, and what are the customs of Cold Dew? In the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the moon is clear in the cold pond; in the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the wind is clear and the air is refreshing, and the osmanthus fragrance is in the air; in the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the world is colorful and the harvest is abundant. Come to Mr. Shui Mo to learn more about the eighth month of the lunar calendar in 2018.What are the taboos to eat during the Cold Dew solar term?1. The temperature has dropped significantly at this time, so it is not advisable to eat too much cold food, such as watermelon, cantaloupe, raw melon, raw sweet potato, raw cucumber, water shield, sunflower, betel nut, banana, mung bean, snail, honeysuckle, mint, chrysanthemum, etc.2. Eat less spicy and irritating foods, such as chili, fennel, amomum, cinnamon, cardamom, mutton, dog meat, deer meat, sparrow meat, etc. 3. It is not advisable to eat too much fried peanuts, fried melon seeds, fried broad beans, popcorn, etc. 4. Eat less or no fish, shrimp, crab, leek, chrysanthemum, pepper and other foods to avoid the occurrence of allergic diseases. What are the customs of Cold Dew?Eat pears during Cold Dew <br /> Pears are available in large quantities during Cold Dew and are the best fruit during this season. Pears have the effects of nourishing yin and replenishing fluids, moistening the lungs and relieving coughs, nourishing blood and promoting muscle growth, and clearing away heat and reducing fire. The flesh of pear is sweet and delicious, tender and juicy. It can be eaten raw, squeezed into juice, stewed or boiled into a paste. It has a good therapeutic effect on lung heat cough, measles, elderly cough, bronchitis and other diseases. The effect will be better if taken together with juice of water chestnut, honey, sugarcane, etc.The dryness in autumn can easily cause people to get angry, and the resulting dehydration often makes people feel uncomfortable in the throat. Eating more pears at this time is good for protecting the throat. Pears are soft and juicy, sweet in taste and cold in nature. They have the effects of clearing away heat, resolving phlegm, promoting salivation and quenching thirst. Especially when eaten in autumn, they can significantly relieve dry throat. Eating pears in autumn is more suitable for treating lung heat cough, wind heat in children, dry throat and sore throat, and dry stool. Eating pears regularly is very beneficial for patients with hypertension, heart and lung diseases, hepatitis, and cirrhosis. Eating pears can help hepatitis patients protect the liver, aid digestion and increase appetite. Drinking Chrysanthemum Wine on Cold Dew<br /> Cold Dew is close to Double Ninth Festival, when chrysanthemums are in full bloom. In order to get rid of autumn dryness, some areas have the custom of drinking "chrysanthemum wine". This custom, along with climbing heights, gradually moved to Double Ninth Festival. Chrysanthemum wine is made from chrysanthemum, glutinous rice and koji. It was called "longevity wine" in ancient times. It tastes cool and sweet, and has the effects of nourishing the liver, improving eyesight, strengthening the brain, and delaying aging. Cold Dew Autumn Fishing <br /> Cold Dew is a good time for fishing because after entering the White Dew, the weather has gradually become cooler and the water temperature has dropped to a temperature that fish like. At this time, the fish, which had suffered from the harsh summer days, began to become active again, swimming around in search of food. Especially in late autumn during the "Cold Dew" and "Frost Descent" solar terms, fish become more greedy and easy to hook and catch in order to store food to fill their stomachs for the winter. Fishermen must seize this great opportunity. Eat flower cakes during Cold Dew <br /> As the weather gets colder, the trees, flowers and plants are about to wither, so people call this "saying goodbye to green". People climb mountains and eat flower cakes on the ninth day of the ninth month. Because "高" and "糕" are homophones, the cakes for this festival are called "重阳花糕", which means "progress step by step". The main types of flower cakes include "brown flower cake", "fine flower cake" and "money flower cake". Some coriander leaves are stuck as a mark, and dried fruits such as green fruits, small dates, and walnut kernels are sandwiched in the middle: Xihua cake has 3 layers or 2 layers, and each layer is sandwiched with thinner candied dried fruits, such as apple preserves, peach preserves, apricot preserves, black dates, etc.; Money flower cake is basically the same as Xihua cake. But it is smaller in size, like "money", and is mostly food for upper-class nobles. Climbing on Cold Dew Day <br /> As we all know, the custom of climbing on Double Ninth Festival has a long history. Since the Double Ninth Festival falls around the Cold Dew solar term, the pleasant climate during the Cold Dew solar term is very suitable for mountain climbing, and gradually the custom of climbing on the Double Ninth Festival has also become a custom of the Cold Dew solar term. If the weather turns cooler and dew begins to appear during the White Dew season, then during the Cold Dew season, 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. Beijingers have a more popular custom of climbing heights. Jingshan Park, Badachu, Xiangshan and other places are all good places for climbing. The Double Ninth Festival for Climbing Heights will attract even more tourists. |
