What should we eat on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year? What are the customs and taboos?
Introduction: The most obvious thing about us Chinese people celebrating festivals is that there are all kinds of festive food during every festival, and the fourth day of the Lunar New Year is no exception. The fourth day of the Lunar New Year is called "Sheep Day". How do people celebrate this day? Is there any special holiday food to eat on this day? Let’s explore it with the editor below! In addition to the grand and festive celebrations of the Spring Festival, we also need to pay attention to some taboos regarding the Spring Festival. Next, let’s take a closer look at the Spring Festival special topic compiled by Mr. Shui Mo!1. Eat Zheluo on the fourth day of the Lunar New YearOn this day, the whole family eats Zheluo together. The so-called "zheluo" is a hodgepodge of leftover food from the first to the third day of the Chinese New Year. "Zheluo" is a special term in old Beijing and Hebei region. The Beijing Dialect Dictionary explains it as: "After the banquet, the leftover dishes, regardless of their types, are all thrown together...also called 'folded vegetables'." In the past, people were not well-off and were reluctant to throw away the previous day's leftovers, so they were "folded" together and cooked the next day. The leftovers had a special flavor and some people liked to eat them. In the suburbs of Beijing, this custom was still preserved until the late 1970s: leftover dishes from weddings and funerals were mixed together and sent to each household in the village by the host family.2. Eat pancakes and eggs on the fourth day of the Lunar New YearThere is a saying in the north: "On the first day, eat dumplings; on the second, eat noodles; on the third day, eat steamed buns to go home; on the fourth day, eat pancakes and roll them with eggs." On the fourth day of the New Year, pancakes are the protagonist. The aroma of wheat, oil, scallion and meat comes out together with the heat of the pancake griddle. The wisp of smoke rising in winter gives a feeling of flying in the clouds. On the fourth day, eat pancakes with scrambled eggs. The small pancakes are also very delicious. The method of spreading egg on pancake is simple. Spread the batter into a pancake in a pancake pan. When it is evenly heated and almost taken shape, quickly pour the spread egg on the pancake. However, apart from the nutrients in the flour, pancakes are seriously lacking in other nutrients. Even if eggs are added, the diet still does not meet the standards of dietary diversity and nutritional balance. So, when eating pancakes, you can cut a few slices of braised beef and add some shredded tofu. You can also add some vegetables, such as shredded cucumber, shredded carrot, etc.Summary: The above-mentioned foods are what I want to tell you about to eat on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. You can learn about them. Finally, the editor wishes all readers a happy new year and all the best! |
