Every household has a candy box on the Eight Immortals Stage (called the whole box, which contains eight gossip and eight intervals). There must be winter fruits in the box. Most fruits in winter are made of glutinous rice, because glutinous rice is sticky, tough and has a long shelf life, which can be preserved for three months. There are many kinds of fruits cooked by bakers in winter, including snow strips, snow ears, snow symbols, snow buckles, snow ropes, snowballs, strips, egg buckles (also called goose intestines), olives, cloud ears and cloud flakes (called vermicelli). After the snow water is melted and mixed with white sugar, the color is as white as snow, and the rest is kept without sugar. After the winter fruit is fried and crisp, spread it and freeze it, melt it with sugar, stir it, spread it and freeze it, and then divide it. Put it in an empty sugar jar or a dragon burial, and use Buffon for later use. The key to making winter fruit is soaking rice, which needs to be soaked twice and dried. Soak for a long time, or on rainy days, it is easy to get moldy and stale. Soak for a short time, it will be particularly hard and will not bite.

To be small and delicate, the snow bar should be smaller than the last finger, so it looks elegant. Snow ears and cloud ears are like little monkey ears. The symbol of snow is more exquisite, with red lines on it, like ancient symbols. The foundation is yellow, like a jade button, and it explodes like a protector hanging on the body. Muttering: Muttering, Dongguan people call it a short paragraph. Hemp is a traditional snack before the Spring Festival in Dongguan. Grandma (aunt) often cooks some fried rice cakes to satisfy her grandson's appetite. People jokingly called it "Auntie cut some rice from the fried rice cake and gave it to her grandson", which was wrongly called Marco. Hemp is often mixed with fried peanuts (ground) and sesame seeds in fried glutinous rice flour. The particle size of hemp is similar. If it is 2-3 cm long, it looks like an olive tip, that is, a diamond, and its color is like hemp. Holding a handful of hemp is often linked with mulberries, forming a winning pattern. Matching diamonds, known as Fang Shengwen in China, are used in buildings, utensils and costumes, and women use them as jewelry, which means they are upright and innocent, United and auspicious. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, hemp has become a snack given to each other by Dongguan people, wishing each other good luck.

Every household has ichthyosaurs, and ichthyosaurs are rice cakes. Dongguan custom rice cake is called "ichthyosaur", which means rising step by step, jumping from fish to Longmen. Because most married women give gifts to their parents' homes, or give gifts to each other between aunts, sisters and in-laws, they also write "cage". In the old customs, no matter rich or poor, every family has its own dragons and piles. The rich are bigger and use better materials. Ichthyosaurus is exquisitely made and uses excellent materials.

Then cover with glutinous rice flour and steam. Soft and sweet when fresh, delicious. Fried piles: On the 19th day of the first lunar month, every household in Dongguan fried piles. Fried piles, in Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Macao and other places, refer to fist-sized fried glutinous rice balls with sesame seeds sprinkled on the surface. The fried pile called by Dongguan people and the thin wok called by Guangzhou people are made of glutinous rice flour with sugar, fried peanuts and sesame seeds. Put it in a pot and fry it. If you are afraid of being too sticky and full after eating, you can add 2-40% sticky powder. Among the fried piles in Dongguan, Aidui is the best, which is healthy, dampness-removing and detoxification. This kind of wormwood is wild in the paddy field that overwinters in early spring, and it is often light green with pale yellow flowers on its branches. Pick it up, boil it in boiling water, chop it with a knife, and stir-fry it with glutinous rice flour and sugar. Because the method of piling up is the simplest, some people who don't have time to make new year's goods have to fry piles in the simplest way on New Year's Eve, so there is a two-part allegorical saying "I am the one who explodes piles at night". Why do you want to blow up piles on the 19th day of the first lunar month? There is a beautiful legend among the people. Legend has it that when The goddess patching the sky was a cow, a horse, a chicken and a sheep, he became a human being on the seventh day. 19 was too tired and fell asleep. Seeing that Nu Wa is so bitter and tired, people don't bother Nu Wa and can't make stones, so they have to use powder to make fried piles, tie red lines and put them on the roof to mend the sky. In fact, the rainy season is around the 19th day of the first month, and it will rain in most years, such as when cats come to live. When it rains in spring, people are cold and hungry. The simplest thing is to make fried piles, fill your stomach and warm yourself up, thus forming a custom. Sugar ring: Sugar ring is a famous snack in Dongguan and one of the indispensable "winter fruits" in the Spring Festival. It has a long history and is also a traditional snack brought from the north by Dongguan ancestors who moved south. The sugar ring in Dongguan has been changed from flour to glutinous rice flour. To celebrate, some flowers were dyed red. It's the same as "Cong Qing Hong" mentioned by Lu You. The production of sugar rings was changed from "bunching and twisting into rings" to printing with cakes and cutting in batches. However, the traditional doughnuts still don't need cake printing, but are twisted into long strips to make rings, which are hard enough to eat. The sugar ring is shaped like a big ring and a small ring, interlocking, meaning endless. During the Spring Festival, sugar circles always use sugar cane to show respect and entertain guests. The original intention is that children and grandchildren are full, endless, and life is happy and sweet. People in water villages offer sacrifices to gods with houses in front of their houses and behind their houses, and use their rings to harmonize "return" and their sticks to harmonize "borrow", which is called "return by borrowing" for short, in order to bless neighborhood relations. They often borrow and return, helping each other and being United and friendly.
