What traditional food is there during the Little New Year?Ma Tang <br /> There is a saying in Northwest Shanxi: "Eat Ma Tang on the 23rd. If you can't have Ma Tang, just chew your fingers." It is said that Little New Year is the day when the Kitchen God goes to heaven. He reports to the Emperor of Heaven about the food, clothing and living conditions of the world in the past year and other things the Emperor of Heaven wants to know. Is it the day when the Kitchen God reports to the heaven? Eating sesame candy is to make the Kitchen God's mouth sticky with candy so that he cannot open it, and cannot report the delicious and luxurious scenes of the world to the heaven, so as to prevent people who love to eat and drink from being punished - the New Year brings famine, and they look forward to a peaceful and plentiful year.Tofu <br /> The 25th day of the twelfth lunar month is "Tofu Day". According to traditional customs, people make tofu, buy tofu, and fry tofu. The fried tofu can be stored until the Chinese New Year. Eating tofu during the Chinese New Year is just to get a good start for the new year and hope that blessings will come in abundance. Fresh tofu that is made or bought is not easy to store, and we don’t want to make it all frozen, so we fry it to preserve it, and add another food to the New Year’s table. Dumplings <br /> In the north, people usually eat dumplings on the night of the Little New Year, which is meant to send off the Kitchen God. The meaning is "send off dumplings facing the wind". When offering sacrifices, the dumplings should be placed upright on the altar. In addition, there is a folk saying that "nothing tastes better than dumplings." During every Chinese New Year, dumplings become an indispensable delicacy. Noodles <br /> People in Shandong Peninsula are busy making jujube buns (also known as big steamed buns), reunion cakes, longevity peaches and other noodle products after the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, which means the whole family is reunited and the days are prosperous year after year. This method of making is rather troublesome. The dough needs to be left to rest after it has been fermented, then kneaded again and left to rest again. Then, it is shaped into various shapes of pasta and left to rest again. The pasta is then put into the steamer after it has rested. The steamed pasta is also called "noodle flower". It is very delicious but very time-consuming. |
