What is the process of the funeral banquet?

After the death of the elderly in the family, inform the family members and their immediate neighbors first, and then inform relatives and friends. It is usually buried three times (the third day after death) and ignited on the first day. Busy people usually stew vegetables in a large pot with white rice and steamed bread, and some add a few hot and cold dishes, but there are also many forms of buffet.

On the third day, the table was opened to entertain relatives and friends who came to mourn. Generally, relatives and friends are running mats, and they can eat and walk. After the funeral, grandma's family and distinguished guests took their seats and began to sit at the main table accompanied by our family.

Step 2 prepare funeral dishes

Generally, a funeral banquet consists of sixteen dishes, eight hot and eight cold, plus an egg soup. Cold dishes are generally four meats and four vegetables, and desserts, red meat and whole chickens and ducks are avoided. Hot dishes are mostly six meats and two vegetables, fish without carp, chicken without chicken feet, meat without soy sauce, braised in soy sauce, avoiding chop suey, shrimp, pumpkin and vegetables. The order of serving is hot first and then cold, commonly known as "pulling cows backwards".

3. The funeral has begun.

When the dutiful son invited him to dinner and kowtowed to the table, the funeral banquet began. People attending the party don't wear red clothes, talk loudly, make a loud noise, and don't argue for wine. It is normal to have no wine. Even if the main family prepared thin wine, no one respected him. They can drink as much as they want, so they seldom talk and eat quickly. As soon as the egg soup came, they left the table at once.

Pay attention to funeral banquet

Undertaker, who attended the funeral banquet, had to prepare meals for the guests in the coat, and the chef at home was responsible for cooking. On weekdays, there is no table, but there must be at least eight dishes. In the last three days, tables should be set to entertain guests, some as many as 100 tables, all of which are excellent banquets with delicacies, divided into major religious and Muslim seats, and vegetarian seats are needed.

These are all made in advance by the hotel inviting the master to come to our home to decorate the stove. In the old society, there were some freeloaders. Even if you don't know the host family who arranged the wedding, as long as you do, try to sneak in and sit down for dinner. There are many guests and seats in the greenhouse, and no one knows anyone. So it often happens that people leave after eating and wiping their mouths, and some eat this round one.
