Composition on Mid-Autumn Moon Cake 1 Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China, also known as "Reunion Festival". But in my rural hometown, August 15th is just an extremely ordinary festival. Grandparents' generation simply didn't know that there were such things as "the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon", "WU GANG won the laurel" and "Zhu Yuanzhang and the moon cake uprising" in the Mid-Autumn Festival. They only know that August 15th is the day to eat moon cakes. In my parents' generation, I still have no culture, but I know that the Mid-Autumn Festival depends on the moon.
We don't have the custom of "autumn dusk and evening moon" there. Every Mid-Autumn Festival is very dull, and children who like to hear the sound of firecrackers don't like it. I'm not used to eating moon cakes. I think moon cakes are not as delicious as pancakes, which is even more annoying for the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the fifth grade of primary school, I had a deskmate Lan Lan who loved mooncakes. Her family is relatively good, and she eats moon cakes for a period of time before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival every year.
At first, I thought Lan Lan was fine, but later I was particularly annoyed with her. She always greets me with moon cakes and explains to me how she got them. On the Mid-Autumn Festival that year, she actually brought many moon cakes from home and gave them to her friends around her, but she didn't give them to me. I don't want to explain that I don't like moon cakes.
I remember that it was about a Thursday after the Mid-Autumn Festival. I went to my neighbor's house and had a beautiful mooncake box, so I begged my mother to ask for it. My mother refused at first because of her face, but later she agreed with me. I want a mooncake box from my neighbor's house, and I want to eat mooncakes. At that time, life at home was tight, except for moon cakes on Mid-Autumn Festival, which were not available at ordinary times. Mother made some buckwheat noodles according to the shape on the moon cake box, and then filled some peanuts and walnuts in it, and the famous moon cakes were made.
Satisfied, I took those buckwheat moon cakes to school as lunch. When I left, my mother told me that I couldn't ask for anything from others in the future anyway. The moon cakes of my neighbors were given by relatives in big cities, and they were very precious gifts! Although it is only an empty mooncake box, it is also a rarity.
That morning, I strode into the classroom and showed off the mooncake box under my arm with a very proud look. Little friends gathered around, and no one mentioned that Lanlan's moon cakes were delicious. Lan Lan's eyelids were red, and she didn't seem to see the mooncake box in my hand. Of all the children in the room, only I know what's in the mooncake box. Enough showing off. I didn't give it to anyone. I ate while I was in class. Lan Lan couldn't help asking me if it was delicious and wanted to pay for it. I took out my mooncakes and deliberately compared them with those on the mooncake box, so that she couldn't doubt that my mooncakes were really famous brand products.
Communication I told Lan Lan that ordinary moon cakes are not delicious unless they are famous brands. My friends want to please me to eat some brand-name moon cakes, and they all agree that the moon cakes that Lan Lan usually takes are terrible. Only she treats them as good things and shows them off. They are not rare at all!
Later, Lan Lan exchanged her half-catty mooncake for the empty mooncake box in my hand. On the way home, I secretly took out a mooncake to eat. Lan Lan's mooncake was much better than my Mid-Autumn Festival, let alone buckwheat mooncake.
Lan Lan's family is not in a small village with my family, but it is predestined friends with me. We have been in the same place until the third grade of junior high school. I just never saw her eat moon cakes again, even on the Mid-Autumn Festival. After graduating from junior high school, Lan Lan was admitted to a cooking school, while I was admitted to a key high school in the county, and I never contacted her again.
Last Mid-Autumn Festival, the college had a few days off, and I had a small party with my roommates. That day, I suddenly received a beautiful moon cake box and a letter from the business manager of a pastry company in Shanghai. The letter was very short: Old classmate, are you ok now? Let me tell you a secret that surprises you. In fact, your mooncake box that "humiliated" me contained buckwheat mooncakes, and that exquisite mooncake box was not yours, but my dad bought it from Sichuan and gave it to your neighbor's house. I recognized it at the beginning, just wondering why you eat so sweetly! "Now I have understood!
After reading Lan Lan's letter, I suddenly realized.
In fact, no matter brand-name moon cakes or buckwheat moon cakes, they are all sweet circles. The most beautiful part is not its stuffing, but the atmosphere when the family reunites and eats moon cakes harmoniously! At that moment, I changed my habit of eating moon cakes, opened the buckwheat moon cakes mailed by Lan Lan, and smacked them with everyone. Eating moon cakes in Mid-Autumn Festival is a kind of beautiful enjoyment, and it is also a kind of beautiful emotional exchange.
Today, as usual, I skipped home humming a ditty ...
When I got home, I found my mother cutting moon cakes, and my mouth was watering. I went to get one regardless of the willy-nilly, but my mother stopped me and asked me what festival it was today. At that time, my saliva flowed to my chin and I didn't care. Mom said today is the Mid-Autumn Festival! In the evening, I can sit on the balcony and enjoy the moon and eat cakes. I am overjoyed ...
In the evening, my grandparents also came to get together. We all sat on the balcony enjoying the moon and eating cakes. I looked at the round moon again ... I ate the moon cake and thought I ate the moon, too. Everyone said I was stupid and cute ...
My grandparents also told me the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival, told me many stories, and why I ate moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I listened with relish ...
Ah, the round moon cake made me memorable, and the round moon rippled in my heart ... From then on, every Mid-Autumn Festival, our family got together warmly to eat moon cakes!
I like this joyful Mid-Autumn Festival!
The traditional food of Mid-Autumn Festival is moon cakes, which are round and symbolize reunion, reflecting people's good wishes for family reunion. Eating moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival is said to have started in the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang led the Han people to resist the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty, and agreed to revolt on August 15th, and put notes in the moon cakes to convey the news. The custom of eating moon cakes on Mid-Autumn Festival spread among the people.
It is said that eating moon cakes in Mid-Autumn Festival began in Yuan Dynasty. At that time, the broad masses of people in the Central Plains could not bear the cruel rule of the ruling class in the Yuan Dynasty and rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang joined forces with various resistance forces to prepare for the uprising. However, the officers and men of the court searched very closely and it was very difficult to pass on the news. Strategist Liu Bowen came up with a plan and ordered his subordinates to hide the note containing the "August 15th night uprising" into the cake, and then sent someone to send it to the uprising troops in various places separately to inform them to respond to the uprising on August 15th night. On the day of the uprising, all the rebels responded together, such as single spark can start a prairie fire.
Soon, Xu Da captured the Yuan Dynasty and the uprising was successful. When the news came, Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy that he quickly gave a message that all the soldiers would have fun with the people in the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, and he would give the "moon cakes" that were sent in secret when he started fighting that year as seasonal cakes to his ministers.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang finally overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and became the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Although Manchu people later entered China, people still celebrated this festival symbolizing the overthrow of alien rule.
Since then, the production of "moon cakes" has become more and more elaborate, with more varieties, such as discs, and has become a good gift. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the custom of eating moon cakes spread among the people.
About Mid-Autumn Moon Cake Composition 4 Although there is still more than a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon cake war in Guangzhou has already been filled with smoke. Guangzhou Restaurant, Lianxianglou, Taotaoju, etc. held moon cake ordering meetings in succession, each displaying the freshest and brightest cards.
Looking at this year's moon cake market, in addition to more diversified fancy varieties and more exquisite packaging, the most striking thing is to play the "cultural card". Moon cakes, originally a special food of the Chinese nation, have strong cultural characteristics of China. How to reflect the China color of moon cakes? Merchants can try their best: firstly, the "Xiguandi Mooncake" of Guangzhou Restaurant applies the most traditional folk custom of Xiguan, Guangzhou, to the packaging, so that consumers can understand Xiguan culture while tasting mooncakes and improve the taste of mooncakes; Then there is the issuance of personalized commemorative stamps for the 5th anniversary of Lianxianglou1/KLOC-0, which embodies its long history and cultural characteristics and increases the added value of moon cakes. There is Tao Taoju who excavates the cultural connotation in the treasure house of traditional moon cakes and develops it ... All of them embody the most prominent similarity of this year's moon cakes-"culture".
Let moon cakes leave a cultural imprint.
As one of the epitome of food culture in Xiguan, Guangzhou, Lianxianglou115th anniversary is approaching, and the State Post Bureau has specially approved the issuance of personalized commemorative stamps for Lianxianglou115th anniversary. It is understood that this is the first time-honored stamp issued by the catering industry in China.
A few days ago, Lianxianglou held a stamp launch ceremony. The personalized stamps issued this time are beautifully designed, and there are 4 stamps in a set. The main ticket of the stamp is "concentric knot", and the design and conception of the attached ticket is based on the long history and characteristic culture of Lianxianglou 1 15 years.
It is understood that this personalized stamp is issued in version 1500, with 4 sets per version and * * * 6,000 sets. Stamps will not be sold separately, but will only be put into the mooncake gift box for the anniversary. A first day cover with stamps and postmarks will be added to the recent launch ceremony, *** 1 150.
According to the person in charge of the marketing department of Guangzhou Post Office, the personalized stamps of Lianxianglou were launched mainly because Lianxianglou has a long history and has a certain popularity in China and even overseas Chinese. "After 1 15 years of wind and rain, Lianxianglou is still fragrant, which is very rare." There are few century-old shops left in Guangzhou. It is precisely because of the historical connotation and cultural background of Lianxianglou that the Municipal Post Office jointly launched personalized stamps.
According to Zhang Xueqing, secretary of Lianxianglou, it is rare to match stamps with moon cakes. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival for family and friends to reunite, but many families may not be able to reunite and it is difficult for friends to meet. Mooncakes contain affection and friendship, and stamps contain the meaning of sending this affection and friendship to a distant place; In addition, moon cakes are the special food of the Chinese nation, with strong cultural characteristics of China. This time, the main ticket is "concentric knot", and the attached ticket is a special stamp of Lianxianglou culture with moon cakes, which reflects the cultural taste and China color of moon cakes. Secretary Zhang said that all combinations of moon cakes in Lianxianglou this year will be inseparable from the word "culture". Zhou Guangjun, Secretary-General of China Bakery and Sugar Products Industry Association, also said that it is the first time for Lianxianglou to launch its products by combining this stamp with moon cakes, not only in Guangdong, but also in China.
This time, Lianxianglou put personalized stamps into the mooncake gift box, which was welcomed by mooncake merchants. Before the mooncake gift box was launched, a large number of customers from all over the world ordered it, including many customers from Tibet and Xinjiang. Customers in Xinjiang, because of their religious beliefs, especially asked Lianxianglou to make halal moon cakes to match this personalized stamp.
