Guyu is the last solar term of spring, on April 19-21 of the Gregorian calendar every year, and this year on April 19 at 21:59 will usher in the Guyu solar term, which belongs to the evening festival, last year's Guyu festival time was April 20 at 16:13:26 pm. However, it is too rainy to cross the festival at night, and there is no bad saying among the people, so you can rest assured. The time of the 24 solar terms is not fixed, some are in the upper joint, and some are in the afternoon or evening.
Guyu is taken from the meaning of "rain gives birth to a hundred grains", and it is also a solar term that reflects the phenomenon of precipitation. As we all know, the mainland is a large agricultural country, and the agricultural economic development of primitive societies can be traced back to seven or eight thousand years ago, when people began to grow rice. Since there was no weather forecast and no calendar at that time, it could only be reflected by the festivals, so the 24 solar terms were closely related to the ancient farming culture, and belonged to a unique time division method in the mainland.
Before and after the valley rain, everything is moistened by the rain and begins to flourish. And the wild vegetables in the mountains have also become people's fragrant glutton, every weekend you can see a lot of friends from the city walking on the country road digging wild vegetables, the common ones are bracken, toon, houttuynia cordata, mugwort, dandelion and so on. But after the Guyu solar term, some of them should be considered taboo. This is related to the gradual increase in humidity after the Guyu solar term, and it is necessary to prevent the invasion of "dampness evil" and injury to the body.
What is Gu Yu's most taboo dish? Keep in mind "3 don't eat, 3 taboos"!
Gu Yu "3 don't eat"
The first is "not to eat wild vegetables that have not been blanched"
Now is the time to eat wild vegetables, including bamboo shoots, toons, mugwort, etc., which need to be blanched before they can be stir-fried. The purpose of blanching wild vegetables may contain oxalic acid, nitrite and other substances that are harmful to the body, so they need to be blanched before eating.
The method of blanching wild vegetables is also very simple, clean the wild vegetables and set them aside. Then boil a pot of water, and when the water is boiling, put the washed wild vegetables into a hot pot and blanch them.
The second is "skipping overnight meals"
After the valley rains, the temperature begins to rise gradually, and summer is about to begin. Some residents may think that it is still the same as in winter, and put the dishes that they did not finish the night before directly on the table, do not put them in the refrigerator, and continue to eat them the next day. Overnight meals tend to breed bacteria and are not good for the body. It is recommended to eat as much as you want, and skip overnight meals.
The third is "don't eat stale toons"
Toon is a common vegetable in the valley rain season, known as "valley rain vegetables". However, it should be noted that it is recommended to eat the toon and buy it on the same day, don't make too much at one time, and it won't be fresh if you can't finish it. Toons contain nitrites, which need to be bought and eaten freshly and blanched before eating.
Valley Rain "3 Contraindications"
The first is to "avoid spicy"
Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to "nourishing yang in spring and summer, and nourishing yin in autumn and winter", and Gu Yu is also the time to nourish yang and liver. During the liver protection period, it is necessary to avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods such as chili, garlic, and mustard, so eat less spicy foods.
The second is to "avoid cold food"
As the turn of spring and summer, the temperature may exceed 30 degrees Celsius during the day, and many people will buy ice cream to cool down and dry. However, the rainy season is still in the spring period, and eating cold food will aggravate the cold in the body and increase the "burden" of the spleen and stomach.
The third is to "avoid depression"
In the Guyu solar term, it is also necessary to pay attention to spiritual recuperation, should avoid anger, and avoid depression. To be open-minded, maintain a quiet state of mind, you can listen to music, fishing, or go out for a spring outing, play tai chi, take a walk, etc.
To sum up, the Guyu solar term has arrived, although there are many wild vegetables that can be eaten, but do not eat wild vegetables by mistake to avoid poisoning. In addition, we must also maintain a good attitude, do not worry and anxiety when encountering problems, everything will go naturally, and it will pass.
