Hometown customs-500 words for Spring Festival composition 1 As the saying goes, a hundred miles of different winds, a thousand miles of different customs. Every place has its own unique customs and charm. Speaking of the customs in Xinghua, our hometown, it takes three days and three nights to finish. Take the Dragon Boat Festival as an example.
This is a festival in memory of Qu Yuan. There are three major customs. Let me introduce them to you.
Custom 1: making zongzi
In our place, zongzi is a delicious food that can only be eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival. First of all, bend it into a cone in the center of the zongzi leaf, dig a large layer of white glutinous rice, add your favorite ingredients, cap it with a zongzi leaf, and reinforce it with thread, and a semi-finished zongzi will be made. Put it in a rice cooker, add water for half an hour, and the fragrant zongzi will be done. All glutinous rice dumplings, take a bite, soft and glutinous; Add pork belly dumplings, take a bite, salty and honest; Add the dumplings with candied dates and have a bite, which is sweet and delicious; Add shrimp dumplings, take a bite, and the q bomb is smooth; Take a bite of zongzi with spicy cabbage, which is spicy and delicious.
Custom 2: Dragon Boat Race
In the afternoon, the unknown river in the town is full of people. What is this? Oh, it's a dragon boat race. Look, four slender canoes carved with faucets are chasing each other, and there are eighteen drums on the shore, and the drums are soaring. The boys rowing the boat all had fine eyes. With the drums, canoe No.1 won the championship like a rocket. The reward is a big jar of realgar wine and a pot of zongzi.
Custom 3: throwing zongzi
According to legend, Qu Yuan threw himself into the river. In order not to make him hungry, the people threw the zongzi at home into the Miluo River. We weren't there, so we had to. The cooked zongzi was the first to be thrown into the river, but everyone put the zongzi close to their foreheads and kissed them, making full efforts. "Whoosh! Hey! " Thrown into the river.
This is our custom of the Dragon Boat Festival. What about you?
My hometown is Linhai, Zhejiang, and there are many customs different from other places: celebrating the New Year, Lantern Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Chinese New Year is coming, and people have rushed back to their hometowns from all over the country to celebrate the New Year. Every household is beaming, putting up red lanterns and putting up red Spring Festival couplets.
On New Year's Eve, the whole family (including grandparents) got together for dinner, and every household began to set off fireworks. As soon as they walked out of the door, they heard deafening and earth-shattering explosions coming from all directions. The sound startled me: I was so scared that I quickly covered my ears with my hands! It was so loud that even the voices were drowned out that people had to shout loudly. After that, I looked at the charming fireworks all over the sky. Every fireworks was like a flower, big and small, with different shapes and colorful colors. It was really dazzling, just like the "Fireworks Festival" of Hangzhou West Lake.
In our Zhejiang Linhai Spring Festival, it usually lasts from the first day of the first month to the eighth day of the first month. I was awakened by firecrackers before dawn on New Year's Day. At dawn, I saw that every household was busy burning candles and offering sacrifices to the ancestors of heaven and earth with tea fruits. There are still many taboos on the first day of junior high school: no sweeping the floor, no pouring water out, no moving knives ...
Also, we celebrate the Lantern Festival there not on the 15th of the first month, but on the 14th. Guess what we eat on Lantern Festival? Tangyuan No! No! No! It's not glutinous rice balls, but "soup" where we eat it. It's made by mixing a lot of raw materials, mainly coix seed pulp, and then adding mustard leaves, minced pork and dried bean curd. After mixing them together, slowly cook them with low fire, and finally season them out. Because there are many raw materials for making soup, it's usually a big pot when cooked, which is enough for the whole family.
"Different winds in a hundred miles, different winds in a thousand miles". The customs of different places have their own characteristics; Festivals in different places have their own ways. Because of this difference, festivals will become very interesting. What are the customs in your hometown?
The custom of hometown-500 words of Spring Festival composition 3 "It rains in succession during Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls". As usual, this year's Qingming is also drizzling.
My mother and I came to the forest park for an outing ... When we went up the mountain, there were rape flowers all around us! Thin rain falls softly on the petals and melts into crystal drops. I saw a few swallows looking for a place to stay at low altitude.
I just want to enjoy the fragrance of the forest and mountains, and my feet are already numb. I sat on the stone by the roadside and rested. My mother took out a green ball from her bag and handed it to me. I looked at the green ball half the size of a fist. The dark green ball became crystal clear with glutinous rice flour, just like a bulging jade. I took a bite, and the green ball was sticky and sweet, just like the glutinous rice balls eaten in the New Year, but there was a faint fragrance. I put the green ball in my mouth and squeezed out a sentence: "Mom, why can only the Qingming have green balls to eat?" “
Mother smiled and told me a story:
Legend has it that one year in Tomb-Sweeping Day, a farmer saw that the Qing army was chasing the Taiping officer when he was plowing the land. The farmer used his quick wits and disguised the Taiping officer as himself, so that he escaped. Later, in order not to let the Qing army find himself sending him to eat, he made a green ball with wormwood and glutinous rice flour. Later, the Taiping officer successfully returned to the base camp. It turned out that he was the right-hand general of the loyal king.
In order to commemorate the "Life-saving Youth League", Taiping Army eats Youth League every year.
When I swallowed the sweet green ball, I suddenly felt that it was not only delicious, but also a force-the force that came from the wisdom of working people and struggled for a better life.
For these customs and cultures, we should not only thank them, but also always remember these traditions rich in the spiritual wisdom of ancient working people, spread them out and become famous overseas.
The custom of my hometown-Spring Festival composition 500 words 4 Every year on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, my favorite festival-Dragon Boat Festival is ushered in. The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanyang Festival and Chung Wu Festival, is said to be set in memory of Qu Yuan. The main activities on this day include eating zongzi and dragon boat racing.
On that day, my mother and I will be very busy because we have to make zongzi. First, my mother took out the materials she needed. Wash the mung bean, adjust the taste of glutinous rice and marinate the pork belly, which is better than cutting it into pieces. After doing the above work, my mother said to me, "Son, let's make zongzi together!" " I looked at the green leaves of Zongzi, and then thought about the pyramid-like appearance of Zongzi. I suddenly started to worry and asked my mother, "How to wrap it?" My mother saw that I was so puzzled, so she made a demonstration: "First, fold two zongzi leaves into a cone-like object, then put glutinous rice, mung beans and pork belly in it, then seal the bottom with a zongzi leaf, and tie it tightly with a straw rope. If you don't tie it tightly, it won't taste good after cooking." After my mother demonstrated, I tried to wrap it up. It didn't go well at first, either something was missing or it wasn't tied tightly enough. Later, after my mother corrected them one by one, everything became smooth.
After it is wrapped, it is time to start cooking. Looking at these dumplings that have just been cooked, I thought I could eat them in ten minutes. But my mother seemed to see through my mind and said to me, "These zongzi will take at least four to five hours to eat." After listening to my mother's words, I seemed a little disappointed, but I still held back the greedy worm in my throat. Wait and wait, finally cooked. I looked at these big and full zongzi, and my mouth watered. I began to eat before my father came home. Eating dumplings made by myself makes me feel extremely excited.
There are countless customs in my hometown, but no matter what festivals or habits, I will live happily and do them happily.
Hometown customs-500 words 5 As the saying goes, "Different winds in ten miles, different customs in a hundred miles", my home is known as the "hometown of morality"-a village in Guoyang County, and it also has unique folk customs. Take the New Year as an example!
New Year's Eve is commonly known as New Year's Eve. On this day, every family eats meat dumplings, which means that they have spent a year in a daze. When you eat jiaozi, you should fill a bowl more than the number of people in your family, that is, you hope to "have more than one year"!
On New Year's Eve, every family will light two big red candles, which will not go out all night and will be lit until the morning of New Year's Day. Some people will "keep watch" on this night. Old people are sorry for the rush of time, while children keep watch to prolong the life of their elders. As the saying goes, "stay up for one night in thirty nights, and walk all over the street on the first day and the second day."
At five or six o'clock in the morning on New Year's Day, we didn't go to pay New Year's greetings, but went to the grave. Early in the morning, we set off for the grave, holding mingbi, yellow paper and firecrackers. When people go to the grave, they will light the yellow paper and put it in front of the grave. The burnt yellow paper ash is blown up by the cold wind, like the greetings of the deceased to their loved ones on earth.
On New Year's Day, every family eats vegetarian dumplings instead of meat dumplings like the day before, which means that this year can't be as groggy as last year. After breakfast, men usually take a group of children to go door to door to pay New Year greetings, while women receive visitors at home. When visiting New Year, the most attractive thing for children is to get a red envelope, but it is not easy to get this red envelope, because it is obtained by children kneeling and kowtowing.
Then, in the first few days of the Lunar New Year, firecrackers are set off during meals, and the time for setting off firecrackers is before three meals a day. Therefore, firecrackers will be heard one after another these days, showing the lively atmosphere of the Spring Festival celebration.
An ordinary custom can better reflect the essence of China's traditional culture, which is the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors and needs our inheritance and protection.
The custom of my hometown-500 words 6 Speaking of the custom of my hometown, it can't be finished in three days and three nights. Then take the custom of the Spring Festival to introduce to you!
The Spring Festival is the first day of every year, and people in my hometown call it the first day of New Year's Day. On the first day of New Year's Day, there is a saying of "opening firecrackers". That is, when the new year comes, the first thing for every household to open the door is to set off firecrackers to get rid of the old and welcome the new with the crackling sound of firecrackers, and setting off firecrackers can create a festive and lively atmosphere. This is also an entertainment activity of the program, which can make people feel happy and bring good luck to people in the new year.
There is another custom in the Spring Festival, of course, that is to eat jiaozi! In order to drive away evil, jiaozi must cook more than enough, and put some steamed buns in the pot after dinner, all of which are intended to be more than enough every year. If jiaozi is boiled, you can't say "broken" but "earned", which means earned. When eating, one or two bowls should be served in addition to one bowl for each person, which means that I hope the family will prosper in the new year. There is a lot of fun when eating jiaozi! Jiaozi eaten in the New Year is packed with dates, chestnuts, money, peanuts and other substances. When eating jiaozi, the first jiaozi is packed with symbolic material, and the new year will be like the symbolic material. If you eat red dates, you will be prosperous and hardworking in the new year; Eating chestnuts means being healthy and motivated in the new year; Eating peanuts means long life and good luck; Eating money means making a fortune and prospering ... No matter who knows which one, everyone will sincerely congratulate you. If the child gets the money, it means that he or she has achieved academic success, and everyone should congratulate him or her.
During the Spring Festival, there is also the custom of paying New Year greetings. Everyone says hello to each other. When the younger generation says hello to the elder, the elder should give the younger generation lucky money, and send messages and phone calls to pay New Year greetings to others.
This is the custom of Spring Festival in my hometown. Your's hometown must also have many unique customs, right? Then introduce the customs of your hometown to everyone.
Hometown customs-Spring Festival composition 500 words 7 "Shixi has been thinking about the Dragon Boat Festival for a long time, and watching the engine in front of the inn building" The Dragon Boat Festival has become an indispensable part in the history of China. There are many customs on the Dragon Boat Festival, such as eating zongzi, racing dragon boats and inserting wormwood ...
In my impression, in the past Dragon Boat Festival, people would eat zongzi and insert wormwood.
On the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, grandma would go to the street to buy glutinous rice, pork, zongzi leaves and jujube ... First, the pork was marinated with soy sauce and salt, then cooked, and then the glutinous rice was synchronized. After that, grandma put the glutinous rice and pork pieces in a funnel, then added a jujube, wrapped the zongzi with silk thread, put it in water for a night, and then inserted it into the door of wormwood. When I was very young, I heard grandma say that this would ward off evil spirits.
When the Dragon Boat Festival arrived, I could smell the fragrance of zongzi downstairs while I was still in bed. I hurried downstairs after washing. The cauldron was steaming, white smoke curled up, and the green zongzi caught my eye, which made me have to praise it. I quickly pushed aside the leaves of zongzi, and the soft glutinous rice came out. I ate the meat at the first bite. The glutinous rice next to the meat was very sweet. I finally realized that this was the glutinous rice next to the meat.
I savored this bite carefully, as if remembering the wartime in which Qu Yuan lived, and thinking of the appearance that people couldn't eat any food at that time. The taste of this zongzi seemed a little sad and sad, and I thought of the defeat of Zhao and the painful appearance of Qu Yuan, and I couldn't help feeling sorry.
Everything we have today is hard-won. Please cherish the present time.
Hometown Customs-Spring Festival Composition 500 words 8 Once upon a time, every time in Tomb-Sweeping Day, our family would always get together for dinner, especially the Youth League. No one, from 70-year-old grandparents to three or four-year-old younger brothers and sisters, does not like eating green balls.
Qing Tuan, as its name implies, is a small blue ball, which looks like a green gem in appearance, round and chubby, making people think it is lovely.
Before Tomb-Sweeping Day, my sisters always help adults make green balls, mix wormwood juice into glutinous rice flour, then wrap it in their favorite stuffing, knead it into balls, and steam it to enjoy. When we are doing it, we can't help but steal some. Mom saw it and frowned. "Hey, how many green groups are missing?" At this time, we hide in the house and secretly laugh.
As soon as the youth league was served, we immediately reached out and grabbed it. My younger brother and younger sister refused to eat candy and cried for the youth league. At this time, the elegance of a lady on weekdays has long been forgotten by us. We just want to eat more green balls, with three or four green balls in one hand and the other hand constantly grabbing them. When all the other dishes are served, we watch the adults eating chicken, duck and fish with relish, and our mouths are watering. But the green balls have been stuffed into our throats. Can we still eat? So I secretly scolded myself why I had to eat so many green balls in the first place. But when we meet the Youth League in Tomb-Sweeping Day next year, we can't help but reach out and grab it.
Now, when I see a youth league seller on the street, I will pester my mother to buy it for me, but when I eat the youth league outside, I always feel that something is missing.
The custom of my hometown-Spring Festival composition 500 words 9 The Spring Festival I am looking forward to is coming to me step by step. The snacks in the street can always fascinate the children who are playing. The Spring Festival in Sichuan is very special. It is completely different from other regions. Today, I will lead you into the Spring Festival in Sichuan.
As soon as you walk into the snack street in Sichuan, you can smell the thick pepper flavor. The snacks in the streets and lanes are all red and spicy, representing the unique taste of Sichuan! The spicy rabbit head of grandpa's house in the alley is a very famous local snack. According to my mother, it's a food that has been popular for 20 years. Grandpa's hawking has attracted many tourists from other places to come here. After eating, I don't forget to pack it up and take it back to my relatives and friends.
Sichuan's hot pot is a popular food in the world, but it also drowns some people's mouths. No matter in winter or midsummer, hardworking and enthusiastic Sichuan people like to sit around the hot pot, even if they are sweating, they must have a delicious meal and burst into laughter. Boiling pepper and beef balls in the pot keep rolling, just like dancing, which makes people drool, but they can slip away from my chopsticks fair and square every time. By the roadside, Uncle Zhang whistled leisurely, and the air was filled with the aroma of hot pot. Dogs wandered around, and the sticky candy sold in the alley was my favorite, which impressed me deeply. Every time I went back to my hometown, I had to buy some! Big red lanterns are always hung in front of the famous shops, accompanied by strings of fiery red peppers, and some doors are pasted with the god of wealth and landscape paintings, which are greatly labeled with the word "Fu" and reflect the taste of "Year" everywhere.
The Spring Festival in my hometown is like this. Every time I go back to my old house, I can think of my hometown's incomparable beauty. Although the times change rapidly, my hometown's excitement and yearning will last forever. This is the custom of my hometown, and its annual flavor can always make me forget it!

Hometown custom-500 words 12 "The firecrackers sound one year old, and the spring breeze sends warmth into Tu Su. Thousands of households always change new peaches for old ones every day. "
On the eve of the Chinese New Year, every household should sweep the dust. Sweep the six yards, dust the cobwebs, dredge the open channels and culverts ... Dust to welcome the new, and sweep away all the "shabby" and "unlucky" things.

"Sorry, I'll go first." Grandpa walked apologetically on the floor that Dad had just wiped. "Dad!" I rushed out of the kitchen and jumped to the floor with a bang, leaving a pair of footprints.

Hometown customs-Spring Festival composition 500 words 13 Mention Laba porridge, who doesn't want to get up in the morning and have two big mouthfuls-the attractive color of taro purple, longan that chews QQ and plays, red beans and lotus seeds that are broken in one bite!
Laba porridge is rich in ingredients, including millet, red dates, lotus seeds and glutinous rice. Grandma has been cooking Laba porridge since 6: 00 a.m. on the 28th of Laba. As soon as she entered the kitchen, she could see that the kitchen had been spitting out smoke. Grandma came in to have a look at the stove after a while. When the stove cover was opened, the whole stove had the aroma of Laba porridge. Porridge is boiling in the stove, and small bubbles are rising one after another. As soon as the face is close together, the whole face is full of steam, wet and moist.
It's been cooking for an hour. Grandma grabbed a handful of Lycium barbarum and put it in the kitchen. I saw the kitchen exhaling again and again, and the greedy insects in my stomach were about to run out. While grandma was away, I took a sip secretly. As a result, the porridge was not cooked yet, but my tongue was burned red. "Ka", the wooden door was pushed open, it was grandma! I quickly grabbed the cover and put it back on the stove. Grandma saw through it at a glance: "Did you steal it?" I nodded. "Ha-ha, I knew you were such a greedy little ghost!" "But, grandma, look, my tongue is burning red!" I still shouted. "I told you not to be in such a hurry. Fortunately, it's not ripe, or you can't eat anything at noon if you drink it now!" Grandma accused. After about three hours, the delicious Laba porridge was out of the oven.
Grandpa brought a plate of his favorite white-cut sheep meat. Grandma knew that I like sweet food, so she put two spoonfuls of white sugar in my bowl of Laba porridge. It was sticky and slippery at first, and all kinds of dried fruits melted in the mouth, and it was broken at a sip. The glutinous rice in the porridge was soft and waxy, which was really delicious!
Hometown customs-Spring Festival composition 500 words 14 Dragon Boat Festival has the custom of making zongzi and racing dragon boats. Although we don't race dragon boats in Chun 'an County, we always make dumplings!
For us in Chun 'an, zongzi is not only wrapped on the Dragon Boat Festival, but also at other times. However, there will be more packages on the Dragon Boat Festival, and sometimes it is not unusual to eat them until next year.
Zongzi is a kind of food, mainly made of glutinous rice, zongzi leaves, pork belly, dates and chestnuts. Sometimes it's wrapped in bacon and sausage, and sometimes it's served with red bean ribs. Zongzi is the food that has existed since Qu Yuan jumped into the river in ancient times. Legend has it that after Qu Yuan jumped into the river. The people of Chu were afraid that fish would eat Qu Yuan, so they wrapped zongzi and threw them into the river, hoping that fish would not eat Qu Yuan if they ate zongzi. Therefore, zongzi has been passed down to this day.
I like zongzi. Not only because of the delicious rice dumplings, but also because of the variety of rice dumplings. But also because it expresses the love and praise of Chu people for Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan is gone, but Zongzi has been passed down from more than 2,000 years ago to today.
Our family often makes zongzi. The first thing is to prepare the raw materials. Cut the meat into pieces and marinate with salt and soy sauce for one night. The mixed raw materials of mung bean and glutinous rice are basically ready. Roll two zongzi leaves into a bucket. Add glutinous rice to it, fill it as much as possible, and put small pieces of bacon on it. Cover it, hold on tight, and don't let go. If the fold is too small, you can add another zongye. Take a rope, long enough, end to end. Twist the two strands of the tail of the rope together and start winding. Go around to the end and make a figure of eight on the other two corners. Finally, draw the rope head and tighten it.
Another step is to taste zongzi. Zongzi is a bit difficult to make, but it tastes delicious. Just looking at it and smelling the fragrance is enough to swallow more than three mouthfuls. What's more, I am eating with a big mouth and tasting the delicious food in my mouth!
I believe that the custom of making zongzi in my hometown will be passed down one after another forever!
Hometown custom-Spring Festival composition 500 words 15 New Year's Eve, is the eve of the Spring Festival, is a lively and busy good season. For New Year's Eve, my father started cooking early in the morning. Because this is our custom here, we should prepare the dishes in advance and put them in front of our ancestors' graves so that they can eat first.
Three days before New Year's Eve, everyone in the village went to buy new year's goods, but my father couldn't, so he liked to buy them later. On the morning of New Year's Eve, my father bought back the new year's goods. My mother and I are going to stew the pork.
A refreshing and disgusting smell came into my nostrils and I asked, "Mom! Is it burnt out in here? So smelly! " Mother said cheerfully, "silly boy, this is him taking a bath for himself."
In the afternoon, all the men in our family will go to worship their ancestors, while others will prepare dinner at home.
On New Year's Eve, I was particularly excited because I had pocket money. At night, the sky is dark, and bundles of fireworks are blooming in the air, colorful and beautiful. Inside the house, the family sat together, and the warm atmosphere instantly softened the cold.
After waiting for a whole year, I finally arrived. I can't wait: "Dad, how much red envelope are you going to give me?" I pulled my father's sleeve with my hand.
Dad didn't answer directly and asked, "Do you know the origin of New Year's Eve?"
I said with confidence, "Yes. In ancient times, there was a ferocious monster named Xi, who came out to harm people at the end of each year. Later, people knew that Xi was most afraid of red and sound. So on the evening of the 30th, every household posted red couplets and set off firecrackers to drive away the animals on New Year's Eve, so as to have a peaceful new year. This custom has been handed down since then, and the 30 th night is called New Year's Eve. "
Dad took out a big red envelope to reward me: "Boy, you really know a lot. Give you a big red envelope as a reward. " Haha, I got a big red envelope.
On New Year's Eve, it's nice to have a family reunion dinner and red envelopes. Everyone is happy and lively. New Year's Eve and Spring Festival are local customs, and it is also the time for us to get busy.
