Erya custom in Luoyang

Located in the west of Henan Province, Luoyang is one of the "seven ancient capitals" in China. Millennium Imperial Capital, Peony Flower City, since the Xia Dynasty, 13 dynasties have established their capitals in Luoyang. It is the birthplace of Heluo culture, one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization, the political and economic center of China for more than 1000 years, and the heavy industry city of China. After years of construction and development, Luoyang has become a famous leisure city at home and abroad.

Millennium Imperial Capital, the holy city of China, the source of civilization, is in the world.

The starting point of the Silk Road, the hub of the canal, the peony capital and the city of mountains and rivers.

Three generations of creation, romantic in Wei and Jin dynasties, heroic in Han and Tang dynasties, and literary in Song family.

Luoyang is the only ancient capital in the world that can be called national beauty and fragrance; Luoyang, a city with three emperors and five emperors, is not only geographically, but also psychologically recognized by Chinese ancestors. Luoyang is the reader of China culture and the center and symbol of China culture from germination, growth to prosperity and growth. Luoyang has a profound political, economic and cultural background, so his folk customs are just as Su Dongpo said: "Luoyang is ancient, rich and elegant."

First, the folk language-Luoyang dialect

Enter Luoyang city, don't look at him, smell his voice first. The falling tone pronunciation and familiar words will make you feel refreshed.

For more than 1000 years, Luoyang has been the political, economic and cultural center, and Luoyang dialect is also called "Yayan". Lu You said in the Southern Song Dynasty: "Luoyang is the only place in the Central Plains with the largest pronunciation." At present, Luoyang dialect is the main dialect in Luoyang Old Town and Luolong District. Among them, the old city is the symbol and symbol of the old Luoyang, and Luoyang dialect is even more authentic. Imagine walking on the east and west streets of the old city, feeling the traditional features of historical blocks, experiencing the historical and cultural atmosphere of the old city and listening to the authentic dialects of the old city, just like crossing the century and returning to history. Luoyang dialect has "Luoyang flavor". However, with the popularization of Putonghua, few people know the dialect in Luoyang dialect, but it really left a deep impression on Luoyang's customs and habits, and it is an important carrier of Luoyang folk culture.

Let me give you some examples. Let's have fun: Although Luoyang dialect is gradually being assimilated, when you come to Luoyang City, you can immediately hear the interest of Luoyang dialect, chat with the old people on the street, and talk to the owners of ancient shops without shop signs. Soon you can appreciate the positive, optimistic but simple and comfortable life concept of Luoyang people from Luoyang dialect.

Second, the traditional diet-soup and Luoyang water mat

Listening to the authentic Luoyang dialect and walking on the quaint urban streets, many tourists hope to find the most authentic Luoyang flavor. Let's start with the taste on the tip of the tongue. To understand Luoyang, all kinds of soups are the best choice.

A beautiful day for Luoyang people begins with a bowl of sour and refreshing "no soup" in the morning; Luoyang people's comfortable day ended with delicious soup. But what does soup include? "Speaking of soup in Luoyang, Luoyang locals will naturally think of beef soup, donkey broth, mutton soup, chicken soup, meatball soup, bean curd soup, non-turning soup and stinky dry soup? Hehehe, so much soup? Yes, that's it. " Ask any Luoyang native, and nine out of ten people will definitely answer like this. There are authentic and non-authentic soup houses in Luoyang. Authentic ones have a history of a hundred years, and non-authentic ones abound. There are about 1000 soup shops in Luoyang, including authentic or non-authentic beef soup, mutton soup, non-turning soup, meatball soup and tofu soup shops of Ma, Gao, Li and Ren, which are exhibited in Luoyang every day. Want to distinguish between authentic and non-authentic, only now the old Luoyang people can distinguish, a smell, a sidewalk out of the tunnel. But for us, a soup of seven or eight pieces with Luoyang sesame seed cake is enough.

When you come to Luoyang, the authentic "Gaoji Qing Xiang Garden" in Xinghua Street in the old city is affordable and delicious, and it is a must-see for all tourists. Speaking of drinking soup, the old Luoyang people like to squat leisurely with soup. If you have drunk Luoyang soup, you will definitely find that the soup bowl is that kind of heavy bowl. This kind of bowl, coupled with the unique soup-drinking habits of the old Luoyang people, has a unique scenery and taste. For the old Luoyang people's habit of drinking soup, Luoyang people now have both reservations and innovations. When you come to Qing Xiang Garden for soup, you will find that there are only four or five small tables in a small storefront, which is a drop in the bucket in the face of more traffic, but so what? Diners sit on a high stool under the big locust tree outside the door, and then sit on a small bench, either eating by themselves or chatting while eating, without feeling uncomfortable and uneasy at all because there is no table. This seems to be an unwritten rule and no one will break it. Even those tourists do as the Romans do. I think only in this way can we really understand the cultural connotation of Luoyang soup with authentic or non-authentic soup.

Luoyang's soup culture has a long history, and even folk customs are an important part of China's food culture. But besides soup, Luoyang water mat is a must.

There is a ballad that goes like this: "Luoyang water mat Luoyang soup, don't forget sweet-scented osmanthus candy, eat Four Treasures of the Study lying, Luoyang paste is a little hot." The first sentence is Luoyang water mat. The characteristics of Luoyang water mat are: first, there are carefully prepared meat dishes, vegetarian dishes and meat dishes, and the selection of materials is extensive. Birds in the sky, animals on the ground, fish in the sea and vegetables on the ground can all sit. The so-called "water mat" has two meanings: first, all hot dishes have soup; Second, after eating a hot dish, it was withdrawn and served again, constantly updated like running water. Luoyang water mat has a long history. "Water mat" is a unique local flavor dish in Luoyang. It is unique in flavor, very particular in material selection, fine in cooking, delicious and diverse in taste, and comfortable and refreshing in taste. It is also called the three wonders of Luoyang with Longmen Grottoes and Luoyang Peony. It is one of the oldest names preserved in China so far, with a history of 1000 years.

Today's Luoyang water mat is filled with 24 dishes, including eight cold cuts, four big items and four pressed dishes. Its serving procedure is as follows: put four meats, four vegetables and eight cold dishes on the mat, and then serve four large plates, one for each person.
