What do you eat on the solstice in winter?

There is a saying in the north that "nobody cares if you freeze your ears when jiaozi bowls run amok from winter till morning". The temperature in the north is relatively low, and there are dozens of combinations of meat stuffing that northerners pack in jiaozi. In winter solstice, people in some places will specially buy a few catties of mutton, mix them with green onions and mushrooms, and make jiaozi with mutton stuffing, because mutton warms up, and jiaozi with mutton stuffing is eaten in winter solstice, which is warm and nourishing.

In addition to mutton stuffing, there are leek eggs, tomato eggs, eggplant eggs, beef with green onions, fennel and so on. Family members in different regions have different tastes. Every family will pack some jiaozi and jiaozi soup, which is nutritious and warm.

The second way-winter solstice

In the north of China, there is a saying that "when you eat noodles on the solstice in winter, the day will get longer". Jiaozi doesn't eat noodles. According to different regions, you should pay attention to the head of noodle soup, including old hen soup, old duck soup, mutton soup, beef soup and even donkey broth.

In the ancient tradition, noodles also mean longevity and long time. Whether it is handmade noodles, handmade noodles, hollow noodles or solid noodles, we should pay attention to the fact that the elasticity of noodles is not easy to stick, the cooking time should be controlled, and the cooked noodles should be soaked in cold water quickly, so that the noodles are not easy to stick and more refreshing.
