There are many customs on the day of Great Cold. So what are the customs on the day of Great Cold? What are the customs of the Great Cold? Let’s take a look at the following content!What customs are there on the day of Great Cold?Drink chicken soupBasically, in the cold winter season, Nanjing people's daily diet will include more stews and soups. This is because the Great Cold actually falls on the 49th day of the lunar calendar, and the traditional custom of eating one chicken on the 49th day is still practiced by many families, and Nanjing people mostly choose old hens. Moreover, when it comes to the twelfth lunar month, the old people in Nanjing still like to make soup to eat. Soups are available in all places, and the cooking methods are also different. For example, soups in the north tend to be thick and sticky, while soups in the south tend to be light and delicate. However, Nanjing's soups take the best of both worlds, that is, they are neither too sticky nor light, and not too salty or sweet, which is why they are so popular. Another reason why people in Nanjing like to eat soup in winter is that the ingredients are easy to obtain in Nanjing, and the soup can be simple or complex. Generally, minced meat, tofu, yam, fungus, sweet potato, pickled mustard tuber, etc. can be made into a pot of hot soup. Add some coriander and sprinkle some white pepper powder, and Nanjing people can eat it to feel warm all over. Year-end Party According to the customs of our country, especially in rural areas, as soon as the day of Great Cold arrives, people start to busy themselves with making all kinds of delicious food, pickling New Year dishes, and preparing New Year goods. During the period from Great Cold to Beginning of Spring, the year-end banquet, Kitchen God worship and New Year's Eve become popular. People are very busy preparing for the festival, making these days full of the flavor of the New Year. Sometimes even our country's biggest festival, the Spring Festival, falls within this solar term. Therefore, the Great Cold solar term is filled with an atmosphere of joy and happiness, and is a cheerful and relaxing solar term. The year-end party originated from the custom of worshipping the God of Land and has been practiced by rural people in my country. Introduction to customs of the Great ColdThere are many important folk customs and festivals. Such as the year-end party, the Kitchen God worship, preparing New Year's goods, going to the market and other activities. During this period, there is another important day for the north - Laba, which is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. On this day, people use grains, peanuts, chestnuts, red dates, lotus seeds, etc. to cook sweet and delicious Laba porridge, which is an indispensable staple food for people during the Chinese New Year. |
