What are the customs of Xiaoxue solar terms?

1, cured bacon: After the light snow, the temperature dropped sharply and the weather became dry, which is a good time to process bacon. Therefore, there is a folk custom of "preserving winter wax against the wind and storing it against the cold", and storing excess meat in the traditional way until the Spring Festival.

2. Store vegetables: As the saying goes, "Snow shovel cabbage, snow shovel spinach". At this time, the cabbage in the field should be harvested. Northerners will pickle cabbage into sauerkraut and spicy cabbage, which will become another delicious food on the table in winter.

3. Taste Ciba: In some places in the south, there is also the custom of eating Ciba in October of the lunar calendar. Ciba is a popular food in some areas of southern China, which was used as a festival sacrifice in ancient times. There is a saying that "in October, Ciba Shao" refers to sacrificial events.
