1. Family photo hodgepodge

A family photo hodgepodge with meatballs, egg rolls, egg dumplings, skin, pork liver and ham slices is an essential dish for New Year's Eve. Many restaurants have family photos at the New Year's Eve banquet, but if you want to eat the family photos you remember, you'd better cook them yourself.

2. There are fish every year

In Hunan people's Spring Festival, fish is indispensable on the table, which not only tastes good, but also means "more than one year".

3. Eight-treasure fruit rice

During the Republic of China, the dry-fried chicken oil eight-treasure rice made by Xu Changxing was once famous, but today, it is quite difficult to find dry-fried chicken oil eight-treasure fruit rice again, but it can be found everywhere, and authentic traditional Hunan New Year's Eve dinner must be without eight-treasure fruit rice. The "eight treasures" are red dates, lotus seeds, longan, green beans, orange cakes, red melons, candied winter melons and raisins. After steaming, they are sweet and soft, and their taste is fragrant. Many children at home like them.

4. Sauce elbow

Eat the elbow while it's hot. Serve a sauce elbow, gently insert chopsticks into the skin of the sauce-red elbow and then push it away. A hot air gushes out, and the sauce smells delicious. The glittering and translucent fat is piled up on a little bit of lean meat, which is bright and shiny. This dish is often the fastest robbed on the table, indicating its most welcome.

5. Taro

Taro symbolizes a happy New Year. In the traditional Chinese New Year, a family stays at home on New Year's Eve. People will eat sweet rice cakes, symbolizing that the whole year is sweet, and they also eat taro, symbolizing that all things meet.
