It is rich in taste and deeply loved by people. Many people will eat Qing Tuan. So what festivals do the Youth League usually eat? Let's take a look at it in detail! Is Qing Tuan a spring delicacy?
Qing Tuan should be regarded as a unique cake in spring. However, if you don't use spring wild vegetables as Qing Tuan and use other ingredients as Qing Tuan, you can also eat Qing Tuan in other seasons, such as Qing Tuan made of spinach and Qing Tuan made of matcha powder. Qingtuan is a traditional snack in the south of the Yangtze River. It is blue, mixed with the juice of wormwood into glutinous rice flour, and then wrapped in bean paste stuffing or lotus seed paste. It is not sweet or greasy, with a light but long grass aroma. Now the shop makes green balls, some of which are made of wheat straw, some of which are made of green wormwood juice, and some of which are made of other green leafy vegetable juices and glutinous rice flour and then stuffed with bean paste. The function of the Youth League as a sacrifice is weakening day by day, and more people use it as a spring outing snack. What festival is the Youth League? Youth League is a traditional food in Tomb-Sweeping Day and the Cold Food Festival. Qing Tuan was eaten in Tomb-Sweeping Day, because Tomb-Sweeping Day wanted to eat something blue, and his eyes were clear, while Qing Tuan should be made of Ai Qing, so he wanted to eat Qing Tuan. Green dumplings are made by mashing a wild plant called "Pulp Wheat Straw" and squeezing out juice, then mixing this juice with dried pure glutinous rice flour, and then making dumplings. The stuffing of dumplings is made of delicate sugar bean paste, and a small piece of sugar lard is added when filling. After the dumplings are made, put them into a cage and steam them. When they come out of the cage, brush the cooked vegetable oil evenly on the surface of the dumplings with a brush, and you're done. Why did Tomb-Sweeping Day eat the Youth League to commemorate the Boxer Rebellion Legend has it that in the late Qing Dynasty and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, Taiping Chen was chased by Qing soldiers. In order to avoid the pursuers, the local people mixed the glutinous rice flour with grass. After eating it, the pursuers felt very sweet and relaxed their vigilance. In order to survive, Li Xiucheng ordered the Taiping rebels to learn how to make the Youth League. Tomb-Sweeping Day is also called Cold Food Festival in reality. In the past, every household didn't open fire in Tomb-Sweeping Day, but the green balls can be eaten directly after steaming. Therefore, Tomb-Sweeping Day's eating green balls is also based on the reality. Seasonal food Youth League can only be eaten in spring, so eating Youth League in Tomb-Sweeping Day is also a seasonal diet. The green ball is made by mashing a wild food called wheat straw, taking juice and mixing it with milled glutinous rice flour.
