With the passing of the winter solstice, we ushered in five or nine days. In the cold winter, May 9 is an important season for health preservation. There is a folk saying: "Tomorrow into the five nine, 3 dishes are not on the table, blessing does not enter the door", reminding us to pay attention to our diet, eat more beneficial food to enhance physical fitness, welcome the new year.
For example, people of the older generation will say: "If the three dishes are not on the table, the blessing will not enter the door." What do these three dishes refer to? Now many people don't know about it! Next, I will explain to you in detail the three dishes that must be made during the May and Ninth season.
First course: stewed chicken with white radish
White radish is a nutritious vegetable that contains a lot of vitamins and minerals that help boost immunity. Chicken is a source of high-quality protein, which can replenish the energy needed by the body. Stewed chicken with white radish is a delicious and nutritious dish that is a good choice for winter tonic.
Method:
Cut the chicken into cubes and blanch with ginger, green onions, and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell. Cut the white radish into cubes and set aside.
Put the blanched chicken into a pot, add ginger, green onions, cooking wine and enough water, bring to a boil over high heat, turn to low heat and simmer for 1 hour.
Then add the white radish cubes and continue to simmer for 20 minutes, finally add salt and pepper to taste.
Second course: scrambled eggs with leeks
Leeks are a warm vegetable that is rich in vitamins and minerals that warm the body and ward off the cold. Eggs are a source of high-quality protein that nourishes the body. Scrambled eggs with leeks is a simple and delicious dish that is one of the must-have dishes for home cooking.
Method:
Wash the leeks and cut them into sections for later use, beat the eggs and set aside.
Heat the pan with cold oil, pour the egg mixture into the pan, fry until golden brown on both sides, and then set aside.
Then put the leek segments into the pot, stir-fry until broken, add the fried egg pieces, add the appropriate amount of salt and pepper to taste.
Third course: stir-fried shredded pork with daylily
Daylily is rich in vitamins and minerals, especially calcium, phosphorus, iron and other elements, which help to strengthen the brain and brighten the eyes. Pork is a nutritious supplement for the body. Stir-fried shredded pork with daylily is a nutritious home-cooked dish with good color and flavor.
Method:
Soak the daylily in warm water, wash and cut into sections for later use, and shred the pork for later use.
Heat the pan with cold oil, put the shredded meat in the pan and stir-fry until it changes color, add minced ginger, minced green onion and cooking wine and stir-fry evenly.
Then add the daylily segments and continue to stir-fry, adding an appropriate amount of salt, pepper and chicken essence to taste.
These three dishes are not only nutritious and delicious, but also contain profound cultural connotations and people's beautiful expectations for life. As we enter the May 9th tomorrow, you may wish to bring these dishes to the table to share with your family, and at the same time, pray for a new year full of blessings, happiness and health.
In short, "Tomorrow will enter the 59th, the old traditional '3 dishes will not be served on the table, and the blessing will not enter the door', don't forget", although this sentence is simple but full of deep meaning. By following this traditional custom, we can not only enjoy the taste of food, but also inherit the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation. In the new year, may we all have a healthy body, a happy life and full of blessings!
