1. Pushing steamed buns

The day before in Tomb-Sweeping Day was a cold food festival. No fireworks were allowed during the cold food festival, and only cold food and cold dishes were allowed. This dish is a unique traditional food in Tomb-Sweeping Day, and the custom of eating dumplings and pushing buns in Tomb-Sweeping Day has been passed down to this day.

2. Scorpion

The Cold Food Festival (the first day or two in Tomb-Sweeping Day) will be closed for three days, so people will fry some ring-shaped pasta in advance as a fast food during the Cold Food Festival, which is called "cold utensils". There is a custom of eating prickly heat in Tomb-Sweeping Day all over the north.

3. Artemisia Baba

Artemisia Baba is an explosive product in Tomb-Sweeping Day, and it is forbidden to light a fire in northern Tomb-Sweeping Day, so cold food is very common in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Many northerners will go to Tomb-Sweeping Day to pick wormwood to make wormwood Baba.

4. Zifu

Zifu, as its name implies, hopes that future generations will be blessed. This is the food of Han people in Shanxi, Shaanxi and other provinces. This kind of food is used at the time of sacrifice in Tomb-Sweeping Day. The flour is covered with dates, beans and walnuts, and an egg is placed on the outer layer. The snake is placed on the surrounding plate and steamed in a steamer.

5. Jujube cakes

In some places in the north, fermented grains are used to make dough and steamed with dates. They are also used to making jujube cakes into swallows, stringing them with wickers and hanging them on the door, so that they can be eaten cold to commemorate the noble quality of mesons who push for fame and fortune.
