Why do you want to burn pigs when sweeping graves in Qingming?

For Cantonese, Tomb-Sweeping Day is an important festival comparable to the Spring Festival. On this day, every household should prepare to burn pigs to worship the mountain. Then why use roast pigs to worship the mountain? Master Sun of Jinji Restaurant told us that Qingming is "too cm pork" from a very young age. The so-called "pig fat house embellish", that's because raising a big pig at home at that time meant a good standard of living, so every year in Tomb-Sweeping Day, the family would choose the biggest pig to worship the mountain to show their respect and good wishes to their ancestors; On the other hand, it's also a sign of glorifying ancestors to burn pigs big enough. At that time, people's lives were not rich. Only in Tomb-Sweeping Day, after the mountain sacrifice, did they have "pork is too cm", and everyone can eat meat, so the importance of Tomb-Sweeping Day is comparable to that of Chinese New Year. Today, people still continue the tradition of burning pigs to sacrifice mountains, but there are fewer and fewer forms of big families, and more and more small families. Burning pigs is no longer just a big fight, but a small fight, practical and delicious. As a well-known old shop in Zhongshan, the roast pig introduced by Jinji in Tomb-Sweeping Day is a guarantee of quality. First of all, the selected materials are reassuring enough. Cooked pigs are golden red, shiny, showing wealth and not expensive. Cut a roast pig, dip it in homemade sauce first, then dip it in sugar. Crispy skin and tender meat, not as fat as expected. It is a great pleasure to carry such a roast pig up the mountain, worship our ancestors with a sincere heart, enjoy food with the whole family after the sacrifice, and have a spring outing in the mountains and breathe fresh air.
