What traditional food will Xiao Han eat in 2022?
Han Xiao chi Wen bu chicken soup
Old Nanjing also has the habit of eating a chicken and an egg every September, so on this chilly day, chicken soup and eggs are indispensable on the table of the citizens. It is said that most of the nutrients in chicken bones and chicken will be dissolved in soup and easily absorbed by the human body when boiled slowly with slow fire. It is a good product for invigorating qi and enriching blood in winter and contains a lot of calcium.
Stewed hens, with some health care materials will be better. Put whatever you have at home, such as red dates, lotus seeds, medlar, longan and so on. Can also be paired with mushrooms, yam, cordyceps, or scallops and seaweed. It tastes delicious and peaceful. Simmer for 2-3 hours, then skim off the grease. Eating and drinking chicken directly, making hot pot soup base, or cooking noodles with chicken soup in the morning are all good.
Xiaohanchi instant-boiled mutton
"Slight cold" is the coldest time of the year, and people are easily attacked by the cold. The quickest and most effective way to resist the cold is not a cotton-padded coat, but a bowl of steaming mutton soup. Mutton is the most cost-effective warm tonic food. If you cook it with some angelica, yam and carrot, and season it with green onions and ginger, it is recommended to eat it once a week, which will not get angry and make winter warm.
Han Xiao eats yellow bean sprouts.
There are many customs and diets in the cold solar terms, such as glutinous rice, laba porridge, rice, soybean sprouts and so on. Let's introduce the custom of eating soybean sprouts in the slight cold season. According to "Miscellanies of Jinmen", there was a custom of eating soybean sprouts in Tianjin in the old days. Soybean sprouts are a specialty of Tianjin, made of Chinese cabbage buds. In winter to the future, cut off the stems and leaves of cabbage, leaving only the heart of cabbage, about two inches from the ground, covered with manure, airtight. After half a month, it is crisp and tender, which makes up for the shortage of vegetables in winter. Modern people's living standards have improved, and all kinds of vegetables and meat are available all year round. They are no longer worried about the scarcity of vegetables in winter as in the past.
Dietary customs in different parts of Xiaohan
Xiaohan Nanjing eats vegetable rice
In ancient times, Nanjing people attached great importance to slight cold, but with the changes of the times, it has gradually faded, and now people can only find some traces in their lives. During the slight cold, old Nanjing usually cooks meals with different contents. Cook short-legged yellow vegetables with sliced bacon, sausage or diced salted duck, and chop some ginger with glutinous rice. It's delicious. Among them, dwarf yellow, sausage and dried salted duck are all famous specialties in Nanjing, which can be described as "Nanjing vegetable rice" and even comparable to Laba porridge.
Old Nanjing pays attention to vegetable rice, and the source is estimated to be related to the cold weather. The so-called vegetable rice is to fry vegetables and rice together, and add bacon, sausage, ham and diced salted duck. Among them, short-legged yellow duck and salted duck are famous specialties in Nanjing, which are very distinctive in Nanjing. In the past, these seemingly ordinary things were only enjoyed by people with rich family conditions. People with poor economic conditions are unwilling to add meat, so they bury a spoonful of lard in the vegetable rice. At that time, there was not much oil and water in food at ordinary times, so "lard bibimbap" tasted particularly fragrant.
Xiao Han Guangdong eats glutinous rice
Traditionally in Guangzhou, Xiao Han eats glutinous rice in the morning. In order to avoid being too glutinous, it is generally 60% glutinous rice and 40% fragrant rice. Chop bacon and sausage, stir-fry peanuts, add some chopped onions and mix in rice. Glutinous rice means warm, and it is warm from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Because the sugar content of glutinous rice is higher than that of rice, it feels warm all over after eating, which is conducive to driving out the cold. Theoretically speaking, glutinous rice has the effect of tonifying the middle energizer and benefiting qi, and it is most suitable to eat glutinous rice in cold season.

One of the important folk customs in the slight cold solar terms is to eat "Laba porridge". Before and after the slight cold solar terms, eating such rich hot porridge at this time can not only stimulate appetite, but also increase calories in the body, thus warming the stomach and dispelling cold.
