What to eat today?

Today is off-year. Starting today, it officially announced the prelude to Spring Festival travel rush, and the Spring Festival is coming soon. Although it used to be said that "it is the year after Laba", in fact, the small year is the sign of entering the taste of the year. After today's off-year holiday, everyone began to prepare for the new year's goods, and many people who worked in other places began to return home one after another.

Generally speaking, for the northern region, the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, that is, today is a small year. In some places in the south, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month is a small year. In some places, the day before New Year's Eve is regarded as a small year, and some people regard the 14th day of the first month as a small year. No matter when it is a small year, it is inseparable from the topic of eating. Let's talk to you about what to eat in the off-year around the country.

First of all, generally speaking, almost all parts of the country will eat honeydew melon or sesame candy during the off-year period. Because there is an old folk saying, "Twenty-three, melons stick to the ground, and the chef is the master." Jun, the big kitchen, is going to heaven on the first day of the lunar new year, so I gave him some candied fruit or sesame candy to eat with him on the road, and his mouth was a little sweeter, so "God speaks well".

In addition to sesame sugar, for the northern region, off-year is definitely to eat jiaozi. In fact, it is not just a small year. In most parts of the north, as long as it is a variety of festivals, if you don't know what to eat, it is right to eat jiaozi. In most parts of the south, you should eat rice cakes on the day of off-year, which means getting taller every year. Let's talk about some local delicacies.

Henan: brown sugar sesame seed cake. In Henan, sesame cakes are also called "burning". The baked wheat cake on this day of off-year is very special. They should be wrapped in brown sugar and sesame seeds as stuffing, and then baked yellow and crisp. On this day of off-year, you should buy at least 9 pieces, and then divide them into three pieces and put them on three plates as dry food for the Kitchen God.

Hebei: Steamed buns roll stove candy. In some areas of Hebei Province, if you eat sesame candy in the off-year period, you should roll it with thin steamed bread, that is, steamed bread rolls kitchen candy, which is crisp and tender outside and especially delicious. Also, when eating, it is best not to let sesame seeds fall off the surface of sesame candy, which is the wealth of the coming year (good wishes).

Hainan: Eat chicken. Hainan's off-year is quite special. The local people eat chicken in the early years, and then basically eat chicken every day. And the way of eating is different, such as frying, frying, roasting, boiling, salt roasting, chopping white, soy sauce, stir-frying, etc., and all kinds of eating methods have changed. Some local netizens said that after the Chinese New Year, they will almost eat the chicken until they vomit. In Hainan, Chinese New Year is not just about gaining three pounds.

This year is off-year, and the above are the food introductions for off-year eating all over the country. Among them, Hainan is the most special, and it is necessary to eat chicken in the next year. For Hainan, eating chicken is equivalent to eating jiaozi in the north and eating chicken in various festivals.
