Since I was a child, I have listened to my parents say a word: big cold and small cold for another year. Great cold is the last of the twenty-four solar terms, and great cold is also the meaning of extreme cold in the year, especially the elderly, must pay attention to the cold and keep warm. Do early to go to bed and get up late, combine work and leisure, and add warm clothes according to your own situation when you go out.
After the great cold and the spring, we are about to usher in the new year's solar cycle. Many poets in ancient times also wrote poems for this talent, such as Lu You's "Great Han" and "Great Cold Out of jiangling West Gate" in the Song Dynasty, and Shao Yong's "Great Han Yin".
And the festival of Dahan is also close to China's traditional festival - the Spring Festival, so from now on, men and women, young and old should buy New Year goods one after another to prepare for the New Year.
After the great cold, exactly one year. At this time, the yang in nature is in the transition from the closure of winter to the rise of spring, and people's diet should also adapt to this change. On the day of the great cold, the customs and habits of the south and the north are also different. On an extremely cold day in the traditional solar terms, Guangdong folk have formed the custom of eating sticky rice. Nowadays, in Guangdong, it is common to have such a scene: before the arrival of the cold, every household cooks a pot of fragrant sticky rice, mixed with wax flavor, shrimp, dried squid, winter mushrooms, etc., to welcome the coldest day of the traditional festival. Glutinous rice has a sweet taste and warm temperament, and has the effect of resisting cold and nourishing.
In the eyes of some people in the north, in such a cold season, it is to prepare a large pot, put beef and mutton, plus seasonal vegetables, and stew in a large pot, which is both depressing and nutritious. Lamb stewed white radish is a dish that is both convenient and suitable for eating in the cold season, and it is also very convenient to operate. White radish, mutton, ginger, cooking wine, salt these raw materials are available at home, just need to wash the white radish, mutton and cut into pieces, just need to blanch the lamb, put it back in the pot, add other condiments to the brain, and put in the fresh soul white radish at the right time, wait until the steaming, aromatic time, it is time for you to eat. Such a simple food, are you already eager to try it?
