It is a solar term with a higher frequency of cold waves and strong cold air activities. The arrival of the Minor Snow solar term means that the weather will become colder and the precipitation will increase. The ancient Chinese divided the Minor Snow into three stages: the first stage is that the rainbow disappears; the second stage is that the air temperature rises and the ground temperature drops; the third stage is that the sky is closed and winter comes. As the yang energy in the sky rises and the yin energy in the ground falls, heaven and earth become blocked and yin and yang become unconnected, so all things lose their vitality, heaven and earth become closed and the country enters a severe cold winter. What food should we eat during the Xiaoxue solar term?1. Eat glutinous rice cakeIn some places in the south, there is a custom of eating glutinous rice cake in the tenth month of the lunar calendar. Ciba is a food made from steamed and mashed glutinous rice. In ancient times, glutinous rice cake was a traditional festival offering in the southern region. It was originally used by farmers as an offering to the cow god. There is a saying "On the tenth day of the tenth month, glutinous rice cakes are burned", which refers to the sacrificial event. 2. Eat shaved soup During the Light Snow season, the Tujia people hold an annual folk activity called “Killing the New Year Pig and Welcoming the New Year”, which adds a warm atmosphere to the cold winter. Eating "Pao Tang" is a custom of the Tujia people. In the folk activity of "killing the New Year pig and welcoming the New Year", the delicacy made by carefully cooking the high-quality fresh pork that is still hot is called "Pao Tang". 3. Eat bacon There is a folk custom of "pickle food in winter to store for the winter". During the Minor Snow season, the temperature drops sharply and the weather becomes dry, which is a good time to process bacon. Some farmers began making sausages and bacon, and stored the excess meat using traditional methods so that they could enjoy the delicious food during the Spring Festival. Many places have the custom of eating bacon in winter, especially in southern cities, which have a special liking for bacon. Do you want to know your own Bazi?
