The origin of Tomb-Sweeping Day's eating spring rolls

According to legend, in order to thank Zheng Chenggong, the people in Fujian each cooked a dish for him. In order to live up to the love of the people, Zheng Chenggong put each family's dishes on a cooked dough and rolled them up to eat. This is the later spring rolls. During the period near Tomb-Sweeping Day, many Minnan people would make this kind of spring rolls at home, because the oyster is one of the materials of this kind of spring rolls, and the oyster is the most plump but not fishy during the period near Tomb-Sweeping Day.

Spring rolls, also known as spring cakes, spring plates and pancakes. It is a traditional food in China folk festivals, which is popular all over China, especially in Jiangnan and other places.

In the south of China, we don't eat jiaozi during the Spring Festival, but eat spring rolls and sesame dumplings. And they also eat spring rolls in Zhangzhou during the Qingming Festival. Besides serving for their own families, folks often treat guests. Spring rolls have a long history and evolved from ancient spring cakes.

Tomb-Sweeping Day has both natural and humanistic connotations. It is both a natural solar term and a traditional festival. Grave-sweeping and an outing are the two major themes of Tomb-Sweeping Day, which have been passed down in China since ancient times. Tomb-Sweeping Day is a traditional major spring festival. It is a fine tradition of the Chinese nation since ancient times to pay homage to the graves and remember the ancestors. It is not only conducive to promoting filial piety, awakening family memories, but also promoting the cohesion and identity of family members and even the nation. Tomb-Sweeping Day's integration of natural solar terms and humanistic customs is a combination of human and natural conditions, which fully embodies the idea that the ancestors of the Chinese nation pursued the harmony of "heaven, earth and people", and paid attention to adapting to the right time and place and following the laws of nature.
