Pickled meat in heavy snow There is a saying in old Nanjing: "Pickle vegetables in light snow, and pickle meat in heavy snow." When the Great Snow season arrives, every household is busy making salty goods. Whether it is poultry or seafood, fresh ingredients are processed into fragrant delicacies using traditional production methods to welcome the upcoming New Year. 2. Heavy snow is a good time for "tonic food". There is a saying that "tonic food in winter and fight the tiger in spring". Winter tonic can also regulate the body's metabolism, so that the energy converted from nutrients can be stored in the body to the maximum extent, which is helpful for the rise of yang energy in the body. As the saying goes, "Nourish yourself in the coldest days of winter, and you will be free of illness in the coming year." 3. Eat sweet potato porridge. After the heavy snow, the temperature gradually becomes colder. People pay great attention to keeping warm both inside and outside the house. They put on winter clothes to prevent cold and frostbite. There is a saying among the people in northern Shandong that "when the roller is against the door, people will just drink red sticky porridge", which means that when it is cold, people will no longer visit other people's homes, but just stay at home and drink warm sweet potato porridge. 4. Watch the frozen river. "Light snow covers the land, heavy snow covers the river." In the north, there is the natural landscape of "thousands of miles of ice and tens of thousands of miles of snow drifting", and in the south, there is also the charming picture of "snowflakes flying and the sky full of silver." During the Big Snow season, the ice in the river freezes and people can enjoy skating and playing.What are some poems that describe heavy snow?"Heavy Snow" Zuo River Water The mountains are withered and dull, and the tree branches are shaking on all sides. The white snow wants to recite a verse, and the plum blossoms fly through the branches and across the courtyard. "Night Snow" by Bai Juyi I was surprised to find my quilt and pillow cold, then I saw that the window was bright. Late in the night I knew the snow was heavy, and from time to time I could hear the sound of bamboo breaking. "Heavy Snow" by Lu You Heavy snow has never been seen in the south of the Yangtze River, and this year it begins to be severe. She cleverly penetrates the cracks in the curtains as if looking for me, and presses down on the treetops so heavily that I can’t bear it. The felt tent is thrown away and the night sleep is forgotten; the golden bridles are erected and the horse is afraid to get up in the morning. I laugh at myself for achieving fame and success late in this life, and just daydream about the Yellow River freezing completely. |
