What is good to eat in beginning of spring solar terms?

Beginning of spring usually eats spring cakes.

In the north, there is a custom of eating spring cakes in the early spring. Take spring cakes as spring food, and you can feel the breath of spring with a bite.

The original spring cake is a kind of pancake baked or steamed with flour. When eating, it is often eaten with bean sprouts, spinach, leeks, vermicelli and other stir-fried dishes, or with spring cake cabbage. There is a wonderful and vivid description in the couplet "Wing Chun Bing" written by Qing Dynasty poets Jiang Yaozong and Fan Laizong: "Even the frost is white, and the iron bar is red. Thin books cut the full moon, soft rolled tubules. Yuan Mei, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, also described spring cakes in "Suiyuan Menu": "As thin as cicada wings, as big as a tea tray, very soft and greasy. "
