What does Fuzhou eat on the solstice in winter?

"Rice food" (Fuzhou dialect: Bulongxi) is a ball made by mixing rice and glutinous rice in a certain proportion, grinding them into pulp, pressing them into semi-dry, cooking them, and eating them with bean flour and sugar.

Fuzhou people rub "rice", put bamboo rafts on the table, put some red oranges, a pair of red chopsticks and a pair of paper flowers in the basket. Clay sculpture combined with boys and girls, put red chrysanthemums in the bottle. Rubbing "meal time" is also called "rubbing round", which means reunion; "Rice market" symbolizes "transshipment".

Step 2 Brew green wine

Fuzhou people will also choose to brew green red wine on the solstice of winter, because Fuzhou has really entered the middle of winter, and the climate at this time is more suitable for wine making. And the brewed wine can just catch up with the spring wine in the first month of next year. In addition, glutinous rice is better than early rice at this time, and the brewed wine is more mellow.

3. eat a gas bar

The custom of eating Ciba from winter solstice in Fuzhou comes from an ancient legend. According to legend, in ancient times, a young woman in Fuzhou went up the mountain to cut firewood and was snatched away by a "mother bird" (female orangutan). Later, the two gave birth to a son.
