In the first month of the first lunar month, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty designated the fifteenth day of the first lunar month as the Lantern Festival, and this night was called the Lantern Festival. Sima Qian created the "Taichu Calendar" and listed the Lantern Festival as a major festival. Since the Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties, it has become more prosperous.

It stretches for eight miles and is used as a theater." Tens of thousands of singers and dancers participated in the performance. It's dark until dawn, and then it's dark.

Because the main activity of the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month was eating glutinous rice balls and admiring the moon at night, the name of the festival later evolved into "Lantern Festival". On the night of the Lantern Festival, the streets and alleys are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. People admire the lanterns, guess lantern riddles, and eat the Lantern Festival. The celebrations that started on New Year's Eve push to another climax and become a custom that has been passed down from generation to generation.

On the Lantern Festival, every household makes homemade Lantern Festivals (now some specialized households sell them exclusively). Yuanxiao, known as "Floating Yuanzi" in ancient times, is an elegant and popular folk snack that is sweet but not greasy and popular throughout the country. Yuanxiao is eaten on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. "Yuanxiao" has a long history as a food in China. In the Song Dynasty, a novel food eaten during the Lantern Festival became popular among the people. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, rice porridge or bean porridge with meat and poop soup was poured over it. However, this food is mainly used for sacrifices and cannot be said to be a festival food. It was not until Zheng Wangzhi's "Shan Fu Lu" in the Song Dynasty that it was recorded: "Bianzhong is on a diet, Shangyuan Youchui". The method of making oil hammer is similar to the fried yuanxiao of later generations. Some people also call it the "Pearl of Oil Painting". The Lantern Festival diet of the Tang Dynasty was noodles. Wang Renyu (880-956) recorded in "Kaiyuan Tianbao Legacy": "Every year in the Yuan Dynasty, the custom of making silkworms was still left in the Song Dynasty, but different festival foods were more abundant than in the Tang Dynasty. ". Lu Yuanming's "Miscellaneous Notes of the Year" mentions: "People in Beijing use mung bean flour as a soup, boil glutinous rice into pills, and sugar into glutinous rice balls, which is called Yuanzi Salted Black Soybean Sauce. The mixed meat is cooked into soup, which is called Salted Black Soybean Soup. Another example is that when people make silkworms every day, they are all on a diet during the Yuan Dynasty." By the Southern Song Dynasty, the so-called "lactose dumplings" appeared, which should be the predecessor of glutinous rice balls.

During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, the "Eight Treasures Lantern Festival" specially made in the imperial dining room was a delicacy well-known to both the court and the public. Ma Siyuan was a master of making Lantern Festival in Beijing at that time. The rice dumplings he made are famous far and wide. Fu Zeng (born in 1688) wrote in his "Shangyuan Bamboo Branch Poems": "The sweet-scented osmanthus is stuffed with walnuts, and the glutinous rice is like pearls from the well water. It is said that Majia's dripping powder is good, and they sell Yuanxiao in the wind." What is chanted in the poem is the famous Ma Family Lantern Festival.

In the past thousand years, the production of Lantern Festival has become increasingly sophisticated. As far as noodles are concerned, there are glutinous rice noodles, sticky sorghum noodles, yellow rice noodles and corn noodles. The fillings include sweet, salty, meat and vegetables. Sweet ones include so-called osmanthus white sugar, hawthorn white sugar, assorted sweeteners, bean paste, sesame seeds, peanuts, etc. The salty ones are stuffed with lard and meat, and can be fried into fried rice dumplings. The vegetarian Yuanxiao is composed of mustard, garlic, leek, and ginger, which means hard work, longevity, and progress.

The production methods are also different in the north and the south. The Lantern Festival in the north is usually made by hand-rolling, while the dumplings in the South are made by hand.

Yuanxiao can be as big as a walnut or as small as a soybean, and can be cooked in soup, stir-fried, steamed, etc. It's equally delicious with or without fillings. Yuanxiao has become a snack that is available at all times, and you can have a bowl of it at any time to satisfy your cravings.
