Summer solstice noodles

Introduction:

"Today is the summer solstice, which is the earliest solar term in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar. It is also an important traditional Chinese Folk Festival, known as the" Summer Solstice Festival ". On this day, there are many folk customs, such as eating noodles, eating zongzi, eating wonton, and so on. There is also a folk saying of" establishing summer, eating tonic food ". The summer solstice is the time of wheat harvest. Since ancient times, there has been a custom of celebrating the harvest and offering sacrifices to ancestors at this time to pray for a good harvest. Therefore, as a festival, the summer solstice was included in the ancient sacrificial rites. "Zhouli chunguan" contains: "to summer, to local things mandrill." In the Zhou Dynasty, offering sacrifices to gods at the summer solstice meant eliminating famine, hunger and death. In the old days, the ancients attached great importance to the summer solstice festival. Before the Qing Dynasty, there was a national holiday on the summer solstice day. In the Song Dynasty, from the day of the summer solstice, all officials had a three-day holiday. In the Liao Dynasty, "the summer solstice day was called the" Dynasty Festival ". Women entered the colorful fans and gave them a gift with powder and fat sachets." The color fan is used to expel heat and the sachet is used to repel mosquitoes and stink. Since ancient times, there has been a saying among Chinese people that "dumplings for the winter solstice and noodles for the summer solstice". Eating noodles for the summer solstice is an important custom in many areas. There is a saying among Chinese people that "after eating noodles for the summer solstice, one day is short". There are many kinds of noodles in the south, such as Yangchun noodles, dry soup noodles, shredded pork noodles, three fresh noodles, Guoqiao noodles and sesame oil cold noodles, while in the north there are stewed noodles and fried sauce noodles. "Because of the appearance of new wheat in the summer solstice, eating noodles in the summer solstice also has a new meaning."
