What should I pay attention to when eating jiaozi?

Eat jiaozi and drink soup with your head down.

Eating jiaozi on the head is not only a symbol of getting rich, but also a symbol of getting us through the hot weather smoothly. When eating jiaozi, don't forget to drink steaming jiaozi soup.

In the tradition of ancestors, it is a traditional custom to eat jiaozi with head down. Because of the hot weather, it just happens to catch up with the first volt in the dog days, so the word "volt" in the dog days is traditionally homophonic with the word "volt" in it.

In addition, jiaozi itself is shaped like an ingot. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that jiaozi is eaten on holidays, which not only tastes delicious, but also symbolizes wealth. Therefore, during the Fu Tou solar term, there is a saying that it is a good idea to get rich and receive happiness for family members, which also symbolizes the beautiful implication that our ancestors told us that Fu Tou eats jiaozi.

folk custom

At least since the Three Kingdoms period, eating noodles the next day has become a custom. According to Wei's Spring and Autumn Annals, "Lie in the sun, wipe your sweat with a towel and look at Jiao Ran" makes people realize that white skin is white, not covered with powder. The "soup cake" here is hot soup noodles.

Liang Zonggu of the Southern Dynasties wrote in the Chronicle of Jingchu: "The soup cake is pale in June, which is called evil." May is an evil month, and June also touches the edge of the evil month, so we should also "eliminate evil". Of course, this is superstition. In dog days, you can not only drink hot noodle soup, but also drink water. Boil the cooked noodles with cold water, mix with garlic paste and pour with halogen seeds.

Welfare can also eat "fried noodles". The so-called fried noodles are fried and cooked in a pot, and then mixed with water and sugar to eat. This way of eating has existed since the Han Dynasty. It was more common in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but at that time, the wheat was cooked first, and then the pasta was ground.
