1. Eat noodles. The custom of eating noodles during the Fu-ri period began at least in the Three Kingdoms period. According to Wei's Spring and Autumn Annals, He Yan's "lying in the sun, taking a towel to wipe his sweat and looking Jiao Ran" made people realize that He Yan's white skin was naturally white, not covered with powder. The "soup cake" here is hot soup noodles. In addition to drinking hot noodles in soup, you can also eat water in dog days. Boil the cooked noodles with cold water, mix with garlic paste and pour with halogen seeds, which not only stimulates appetite, but also "defeats the heart."

2. jiaozi. There is a slang in the north, which is called "jiaozi's head lies on two sides, and pancakes spread eggs on three sides". In the north, it is a traditional custom to eat more noodles in the dog days and jiaozi in the head. It is a traditional custom to eat jiaozi on your head, because when it's raining, people's appetite is not good, and they can't eat anything, and jiaozi is the food to stimulate their appetite and satisfy their appetite in the traditional customs of China people. When cooking jiaozi, two common problems, adhesion and broken skin, are a headache. How to cook it to keep its shape intact? In fact, in the process of cooking jiaozi, the water is boiled four times, and it is cooked. Boiled water enters jiaozi. When the water boils for the first time, add a little cold water, and then add cold water after the water boils. The total backwater is 3 * * * points, and the jiaozi is cooked after boiling for 4 times, which will neither stick nor break the skin easily.

3. Wonton. In some southern areas, such as Shanghai, people want to eat wonton. In fact, for southerners, wonton and jiaozi are almost a kind of food. Shanghainese have the saying "Toufu Wonton Erfu Tea". Compared with dumplings, wonton is thin and transparent after cooking. In addition, it takes a short time to cook wonton, and cold water needs to be added several times to ensure it is cooked thoroughly. Another point is that dumplings are heavily dipped and wonton is heavily souped, 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. As the folk saying goes, "Eat a chicken in ups and downs, and it will keep you healthy for a year." Nanchang "eats chickens and ducks in the first place", and Hunan and Jiangxi are adjacent to each other, and the first place is also eating chickens. Relatively speaking, people in Jiangxi and Hunan eat chicken in dog days, which is quite scientific. People consume more physical energy in dog days, so they should be properly supplemented with nutrition. When stewing chicken, a proper amount of ginger can be added. Ginger is warm, which can adjust the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the human body in summer, make the human body adapt to the external environment, and play a role in removing dampness and strengthening the body. In this way, it can disperse the accumulated cold in the body and prevent the onset of cold disease in autumn.
