1, eat noodles. The custom of eating noodles on Furi Festival began at least in the Three Kingdoms period. According to Wei's Spring and Autumn Annals, "Lie in the sun, wipe your sweat with a towel and look at Jiao Ran" makes people realize that white skin is white, not covered with powder. The "soup cake" here is hot soup noodles. In dog days, you can not only drink hot noodle soup, but also drink water. Cooked noodles are cooked in cold water, mixed with garlic paste and watered with halogen seeds, which not only stimulates appetite, but also "defeats the heart".

2. jiaozi. There is a saying in the north that "jiaozi lies on both sides, and pancakes spread eggs on three sides". In the north, it is a traditional custom to eat noodles and wrap jiaozi on your head in dog days. It is a traditional custom to eat jiaozi on the head, because when it rains, people have a bad appetite and can't eat anything, while jiaozi is a food that stimulates and satisfies the appetite in the traditional customs of China people. When cooking jiaozi, two common problems, adhesion and broken skin, are very troublesome. How to cook to keep the shape intact? In fact, in the process of cooking jiaozi, the water is boiled four times, and it is cooked. Boil water into jiaozi. When the water boils to 1 time, add a little cold water, and then add cold water after the water boils. A total of 3 backwaters, boiled for 4 times, jiaozi is cooked, neither sticky nor easy to break skin.

3. wonton In some southern areas, such as Shanghai, people want to eat wonton. Actually, for southerners, wonton and jiaozi are almost a kind of food. Shanghainese have the saying "Fu Tou Wonton Er Fu Tea". Compared with jiaozi, wonton is thin and transparent when cooked. In addition, wonton is cooked for a short time, and cold water needs to be added several times to ensure thorough cooking. Another point is that jiaozi is heavily dipped, and wonton is heavily soup, especially in Guangdong. Chicken soup and meat and bone soup are the first choice for soup base. We often eat wonton with noodles here, which is called wonton noodles.

4. Chicken. There is a folk saying that "eat a chicken in ups and downs and be healthy for a year." Nanchang "eats chickens and ducks first", Hunan and Jiangxi are adjacent, and the first place is also eating chickens. Relatively speaking, it is scientific for people in Jiangxi and Hunan to eat chicken in dog days. People consume more physical energy in dog days, so they should be properly supplemented with nutrition. You can add a proper amount of ginger when stewing chicken. Ginger is warm, which can adjust the temperature difference inside and outside the human body in summer, make the human body adapt to the external environment, and play the role of eliminating dampness and strengthening the body. This can disperse the accumulated cold in the body and prevent the onset of cold diseases in autumn.
