What does the snow solar term mean?

Snow solar term is a climate concept, which represents the climate characteristics during the snow solar term, namely temperature and precipitation. The heavy snow in solar terms and the heavy snow in weather have different meanings. In fact, the snow in heavy snow solar terms is often not as big as that in light snow solar terms, and the solar terms with the largest amount of snow in the whole year are not in light snow and heavy snow solar terms. For example, in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, the solar term with the most snow all year round is neither "light snow or heavy snow" nor "slight cold or severe cold", but "rain" in spring. This snow is not the biggest in the solar terms.

The custom of heavy snow and solar terms

1, heavy snow bacon

One of the customs of solar terms in heavy snow is bacon. There is a saying in old Nanjing called "light snow pickles, heavy snow pickles". Every household should be busy pickling "salty goods" as soon as the solar term of heavy snow arrives. Whether it is poultry or seafood, fresh raw materials are processed into delicious food by traditional methods to welcome the coming New Year.

Step 2 Eat 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. There is a folk saying in northern Shandong that "people only drink red sticky porridge", which means that when it is cold, they no longer visit their homes, but only drink warm sweet potato porridge at home. Sweet potato contains lysine, which is lacking in rice and flour. Lysine can promote the maturation of human epithelial cells. The combination of anti-cancer factors and intracellular protein can improve the body's resistance. Eating sweet potatoes in autumn and winter also has the effect of preventing dryness, but you can't eat more.

3. Watch the river closure

In the snowy season, there is a natural landscape of "thousands of miles frozen, Wan Li snows" in the north, and a charming picture of "snowflakes flying and white" in the south. In the snowy solar term, due to the low temperature, the ice in the river is frozen, and people can skate and play on it. During the solar term of heavy snow, the northern region is already covered in silver. Making snowmen, skating, skiing and snowball fights are young people's favorite outdoor activities. For people who like to stay indoors, drinking a bowl of hot soup or eating a hot pot is an economical and practical policy to keep out the cold.

4, heavy snow tonic

"In winter, mutton is strong, so you can go up the mountain to fight tigers." Old Nanjing loves to eat mutton and snow. Mutton can dispel cold and nourish, replenish qi and tonify deficiency, promote blood circulation and enhance cold resistance. Mutton can also increase digestive enzymes and help digestion. Experts suggest that eating mutton in winter can be matched with yam and medlar, which is more nutritious. Shanghainese pay attention to food supplement, buy cabbage stew, burn "shredded pork" and taste sweet and sour red hawthorn, all of which are good eating habits in heavy snow season. Before and after the solar term of heavy snow, a large number of citrus fruits went on the market. Nanfeng tangerine, Kansai glaze, navel orange and snow orange are all "popular" fruits now. Eating more can replenish water and fight against winter dryness.
