Summer custom

The customs of summer solar terms are:

People have the custom of eating three treasures in summer, that is, eel, honey lotus root and mung bean sprouts. In the past, Xiaoshu had the custom of "eating fresh food". People grind newly beaten rice and wheat into flour, make all kinds of cakes and noodles, and share them with their neighbors to express their wishes for a bumper harvest.

At the same time, these foods should also be prepared as sacrifices for ancestors, and please bless the good weather. In summer, people will also choose to "bask in the sun" and hang their clothes in the cupboard outside to receive the sunshine.
