In the light snow season in northern China, most people want to eat instant-boiled mutton, because the light snow solar term is a solar term with high frequency of cold wave and strong cold air activity. At this time, the temperature will drop faster, so you need to eat some warm and cold-proof food to resist the cold.

Step 2 eat crucian carp

In the winter when the cold wind is rustling and the air conditioning attacks people, the meat and seeds of crucian carp are rich and delicious, so there is a folk saying that "there are crucian carp in winter and catfish in summer". Crucian carp is tender and sweet.

The custom of light snow solar terms

1, do manual work

In rural areas, large-scale agricultural activities outside have ended due to the weather. People will do some simple physical labor in the house, such as bamboo weaving, textile and so on.

Step 2 collect snow water

In some places, when it snows on the light snow festival, it is put away and put in porcelain, thinking that it can cure fire sores and heat poison. Of course, this is just folklore.

3, pickles, reserve winter vegetables

In the light snow season, the weather in most places is already cold. You know, you can eat fresh vegetables in spring, summer and autumn, but you can't grow vegetables in winter, so you should reserve them in advance. Potatoes, Chinese cabbage, radishes, onions and other storable vegetables have become the main dishes on the table in winter. In addition, people will pickle all kinds of pickles for winter consumption.
