What should I eat in snowy solar terms?

Drink sweet potato porridge.

After the heavy snow, the temperature gradually became cold. People pay great attention to keep warm indoors and outdoors, and wear winter clothes to prevent freezing and frostbite.

Sweet potato porridge is sweet and delicious, which can strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach. It is also a good diet food.

Although there are many kinds of snacks and fast food, the charm of Jinling snacks is still there, and the radish balls with authentic local flavor will definitely re-emit intoxicating fragrance.

Bean soup

"Take your time, people who eat sugar, rest with a large group of people." Every time before and after the solar term in heavy snow, there will be scenes of exchanging sugar on the streets of Wenzhou.

Candy workshops all over the country provide authentic caramel, commonly known as "sugar customers", to small vendors who specialize in carrying burdens and walking around the streets. The "sugar customer" is holding a sugar knife and shouting to sell sugar.

Children are often attracted, so parents will exchange their copper scraps, copper coins and other items with "sugar customers" for caramel.

Because eating caramel in winter has the benefits of nourishing the body, this "sugar exchange" has also developed into a commercial operation mode.
