Fastidious Dinner

On the eve of new year's Eve, no matter how far away and how busy the work is, people always want to go back to their homes and have a round dinner.

Sometimes, when he could not go home, his family always kept a seat for him, leaving a pair of bowls and chopsticks to show him a reunion.

This year's dinner is also called "family rejoice". It is a family banquet that people attach great importance to.

As the saying goes, beat one thousand, scold ten thousand, eat dinner thirty nights.

According to the traditional customs of our country, the food for new year's Eve is very fastidious. It usually has wonton, dumplings, long noodles, Lantern Festival and so on.

The new year's Eve won the first taste of wonton.

It is said that Pangu's split the earth, so that "the light of Qi is floating up to the sky, and the Qi is heavy and the coagulant is the earth".

Moreover, the homonym of "wonton" and "muddy hoarding" means that the grain is full.

Jiaozi dumplings are one of the traditional foods in China.

Also known as flat food or boiled meat and potatoes.

In ancient times, there were only wonton without dumplings.

Later, the wonton was made into a crescent shaped shape to make dumplings.

On the eve of the new year's Eve, when the sound of twelve o'clock broke, the dumplings began to eat.

Long noodles, also called longevity noodles.

Eat it for the new year.

All the pasta in ancient times is called cake, so the soup noodle is called soup cake at the beginning. The starting face is not rolled or pressed. Instead, it uses the hand to tangle the noodles with the hand, and it is similar to the "crows head" and "monkey ears" which are eaten in the north now.

After the Tang Dynasty, they began to roll out the surface with the plank, and then gradually had long noodles, short noodles, dry noodles, plain noodles, meat noodles and dried noodles.

In many places, when they eat their meals, they also mix with some non-staple food, hoping to get a lucky mouth.

Eat jujube (spring comes early), eat dried persimmon (happy), eat almond (happiness), eat tofu (Quan Jiafu), eat three fresh vegetables (three Yang Kai Tai), eat Changsheng (immortality), eat rice cake (rice cake, rice cake, higher year by year).

It is the most enjoyable time for every Spring Festival to enjoy the new year's Eve dinner.

On the eve of the Lunar New Year's Eve, the feast of the rich dishes is full of family reunion.

People enjoy enjoying the full meal and enjoying the happy atmosphere.

There are two things on the table: big dishes, cold dishes, stir fry and snacks. One is hot pot, the other is fish.

Hot pot boiling, steaming hot, warm and charming, indicating that red and red; "fish" and "Yu" homophonic, is a symbol of "lucky enough", but also shows that "every year more than enough."

There are also radishes, commonly known as vegetable heads, wishing good colored heads, lobster, fried fish and other frying foods, and wishing family luck to thrive like a "hot oil cooking".

In the end, I would like to have a sweets, and wish the future sweet and honey.

This day, even if you can't drink, drink a little.

In ancient times, drinking wine in the new year took great care of the quality of wine. Some of the wines were gone now, leaving only a lot of moving wine names, such as "fermented grains", "blue tail wine", "Yichun wine", "plum wine", "peach blossom wine", "Tu Su wine" and so on.

Among these wines, the longest and most common wine was the wine.

But how did the name of Tu Su liquor come from?

What is it made of?

I never heard of it.

It is a kind of grass name.

It is also said that Tu Su is an ancient house because the wine brewed in this house is called Tu Su wine.

It is said that this wine was prepared by Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in the late Han Dynasty, and was handed down by the famous doctor of the Tang Dynasty, Sun Simiao.

Every year in the twelfth month of the year, Sun Simiao will send a package of medicine to all the neighbors, telling everyone to take the medicine to make wine and drink it on New Year's Eve to prevent plague.

Sun Simiao also named his house "Tu Su house".

Later, after successive generations, drinking and drinking wine became the custom of the new year.

The ancient method of drinking and drinking Su wine is very unique.

The average drinkers are always drinking from the elders, but drinking them is the opposite. They drink from the youngest.

Su Zhe, a Song Dynasty scholar, said: "in the end, we will drink more than 70 years."

This is the custom.

This kind of fresh drinking order often produces all kinds of emotion in ancient times, so it gives people a deep impression.

There are many different kinds of new year's Eve dinner, which are different from north to south, including dumplings, Kun Tun, long noodles and yuanxiao.

The people of the north are accustomed to eating dumplings for the new year, which means to take the new and old "Jiaozi".

And because of the shape of white dumplings like Yin Yuanbao, a basin on the end of the table symbolizes the meaning of "the new year's fortune, the Yuan Bao comes in".

When making dumplings, they also put several sterilized coins into it, saying that whoever eats them can earn more money.

The custom of eating dumplings was handed down from the Han Dynasty.

I want to tell you that Zhang Zhongjing, a medical saint, was born in the cold winter months. He saw that the ears of the poor families were frozen and rotten. He made a "cold dispelling ear soup" to cure the frostbite of the poor.

He used mutton, chilli and some cold dispelling hot herbs to wrap his ears into "ears". He cooked them in the pot and gave them to the poor. After eating, they felt warm and warm in two ears.

Since then, people have been copying and doing it until today.

Eating Kun ton for the new year is the beginning.

It is said that the world was chaotic before it was born.

Long noodles, also called longevity noodles.

Eating noodles for the new year is a celebration of longevity.

Eating dumplings on the festival is a very delicious food for our people. Especially for Spring Festival, new year's day, people have to cook dumplings to eat, but our northerners prefer it. So there is a saying "delicious but no dumplings".

Jiaozi dumpling is one of the most delicious food in China. It has a history of more than two thousand years.

Before it really came into being, its ancestor was the wonton of the Han Dynasty. The wonton was named after its chaotic shape, that is, no regular shape.

Later, the ancients made wonton a half moon shape, similar to the later dumplings.

Jiaozi first appeared in the Sui Dynasty. Its record was first seen in the anthology of Yan Zhi Tui in the Sui Dynasty. He said: today, the dumpling is dull, and it looks like a weak moon, and the whole world passes through food. This kind of wonton shaped wonton made of rice is called "powder Jiao" at that time.

But after the birth of dumplings, wonton is still a delicious food widely consumed by people, because it is cheap and affordable, so it has been coexisting with dumplings until now. Only dumplings are stuffed with stuffing, and wonton focuses on soup.

It was not until the late Ming and early Qing that the two began to operate separately.

The earliest dumplings that people can see are unearthed in the tombs of the Tang Dynasty in Xinjiang, Turpan, China, which have been around for more than 1300 years. The dumplings are placed in a wooden bowl with a complete appearance and the same as modern dumplings.

Today's dumplings compare with the past, whether in name, style or variety, great changes have taken place. They can be described as "green in the blue but better than blue," and are more colorful and distinctive.

Such as the northeast border dumplings, Jiangnan steamed dumplings, water fried dumplings, green boiled boiled dumplings in the Beijing area, these dumplings like emerald agate are not only beautiful, but also like the crescent moon. They are not only good in color and taste, but also have many poetic and colorful names according to their different styles, such as seeking for the moon in the sea, the four happiness, lingmen, the five sons, the eight treasures, the happiness, the fragrant flowers, the mandarin duck and the amphibious.

In the overseas Chinese restaurants, the dumplings are all in the limelight. After some foreigners taste it, they say, "it's delicious."

Jiaozi dumplings became the spring festival food. It was probably in the middle of Ming Dynasty. It was because the dumpling stuffing was delicious and shaped like an ingot, so eating dumplings during the Spring Festival also showed people's good wishes for new year's prosperity.

However, there is a legend about eating dumplings in the new year.

Once upon a time, an emperor wanted to be immortal, and the traitor, Pan Qi, said, "if a man can eat 100 kinds of rice, he can prolong his life to become a celestial being."

Later, a highly skilled cook Wang Xiaoer was elected to the palace. He made ninety-nine different kinds of dishes, and the emperor was very satisfied.

This night, Wang Xiaoer was very happy. He thought he would go home again tomorrow and cook a new year together with his wife and children.

When he was cooking, he saw the leftover mutton and vegetables on the chopping board, so he picked up the knife and chopped it up. He made many small horns with bread and boiled it to the emperor.

In order to often eat this kind of delicious food, Wang Xiaoer was forced to be detained. Wang Xiaoer hated the faint ruler and escaped several times. Finally, he hanged himself on the morning of the first day of the new year.

Later, in order to commemorate the chef's courage to fight against the dignitaries and die in the spirit of death, the family gathered together to eat flat food on the first day of the lunar new year.

In the Shanxi and Jin areas, the new family came to the house for the first time. The women's family served the dumplings for their son-in-law, and often asked the woman's sister-in-law to make dumplings.

Sister-in-law often has to play with this brother-in-law, not dumplings stuffed with chili stuffing, or stuffed with some Zanthoxylum bungeanum dumplings, which makes it difficult for her to have "bitter". This custom might be like to say: "my family is not bully, but later she should be nice to her."

As the saying goes, "eating noodles with dumplings", eating dumplings symbolizes family reunion, new year's wealth. The flavor of dumplings is delicious, and the food culture of dumplings is even more charming.

Today's dumplings blend the essence of cuisine in the north and South cuisine of our country, using a variety of ingredients, including high-grade shark fin, abalone and other rare delicacies and common seasonal fruits and vegetables, or even wild vegetables.

Through complex processes, fillings and steaming, boiling, frying, frying, roasting and other cooking methods are used to prepare salty, sweet, spicy, sour, weird and other kinds of meat flavor, egg flavor, fruit flavor, soy sauce flavor, rope flavor and seafood flavor six flavors of a variety of flavors.

The technology of dumplings is combined with sculpture, sculpture, combination, and ornament, so that each dumpling modeling technique is skillfully integrated with art.

Some dumplings on the upper floor are like goldfish, some are like bunny rabbits, some are like peach, some are like pearls.

So that many guests can not bear to send this realistic art to the entrance.
