What traditional food does the northern first frost eat?

The first frost is a good time for tonic. As the saying goes, winter mending is not as good as first frost mending, winter mending is too greasy, and first frost sun mending is excellent. In order to welcome the arrival of the first frost solar terms, many places have the custom of eating beef dinner in the first frost. From the health point of view, beef is very popular because of its high protein content, low fat content and delicious taste. Beef has the effects of invigorating the middle energizer, invigorating the spleen and stomach, strengthening bones and muscles, resolving phlegm and calming wind, and quenching thirst. Eating beef in cold winter has the function of warming the stomach and is a good tonic in cold winter.

Step 2 eat ducks

On the day of the first frost, people in Taiwan Province Province in southern Fujian should take supplements, which is what we often say in the north. Every time the first frost comes, ducks in Fujian and Taiwan will be very popular, and sometimes they will be out of stock, which is in short supply. The hot and dry season in summer and autumn is best for eating ducks. Regular consumption of duck meat is most beneficial to those who are weak, edema due to yin deficiency, loss of appetite, dry stool and persistent low fever. Duck meat can lower cholesterol. Therefore, it is very healthy to eat more duck meat instead of other meat dishes.

Step 3 eat radish

Radish is the treasure of autumn, and there is a saying in China that "October radish competes with ginseng", which means that eating radish in October is as beneficial as eating ginseng. In fact, there are many "good partners" in white radish, some of which have complementary nutrition, and some have double nourishing effect. The first frost solar term coincides with the transition of autumn and winter, so during the first frost, people in China also have the custom of eating radishes.
