What are the customs and habits in Hefei?

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, people in Hefei eat not only moon cakes, but also baohe silky (private) lotus roots. They must eat three meals on the first day of the New Year's Day, and there are probably more than a dozen dishes. Cook a portion of fish in braise in soy sauce, and put more peppers on the table but don't eat it. Put the fish away after eating. Represents more than a year.

People in Hefei have two special features in the Spring Festival: First, they should "burn incense charcoal"; Second, firecrackers stayed up all night, and the festive atmosphere was very warm. "Burning incense charcoal" means that every family should pour red charcoal with vinegar in the house after the dust is swept away on the New Year's Eve. When the smoke is rolling, the smoke fills the air, so as to purify the air, eliminate evil spirits and avoid disasters. After the New Year's dinner, firecrackers were set off, continuously from evening to the next morning.
