What dishes will be served on the table when you are married in the countryside?

In rural areas, we basically hold running water seats in our own homes, which can be summed up in one sentence as delicious and affordable. What are the common dishes in rural banquets? Let's have a look!

First of all, in the banquet, it is essential to have chicken and fish. As the saying goes, "No chicken is a feast, no fish is a banquet", and chicken and fish have a great position in the banquet. Secondly, there are some local dishes, mainly seafood and fresh lake in the area near the water, and mainly meat in the inland.

However, the customs of different regions are different, so the dishes on the water table are different. Therefore, the number of dishes and dishes in different places are also different, but the number must be even, not singular, because the singular represents bad luck.

Take Northwest China as an example, for example, the running water banquet in Northwest China has the same point, that is, there must be 24 dishes in total, including 8 cold dishes and 16 hot dishes. When serving, cold dishes are served first, eight cold dishes with four meats and four vegetarian dishes, and then 16 hot dishes are served in the form of three, three, three, three and four dishes, and the last dish is soup. After eating, the banquet ended successfully, so people in some areas jokingly called this soup "fuck off soup", which means to fuck off after eating.

The flowing water seats in rural areas, a manifestation of Chinese traditional culture, have a history of more than 1000 years, but now they are gradually replaced by hotels, although the dishes are exquisite in style.

As far as raw materials are concerned, China rural wedding banquet has several basic big items: chicken, duck, fish and hoof, which are basically essential. From the fancy of the wedding banquet, cold dishes should be cooked for 6-8 courses, and hot dishes should be cooked for about 10, and then don't forget soup, snacks and fruits.

Pay attention to local customs when serving dishes, avoid local taboos, and respect the habits of every guest. Guests who are vegetarians or need special side dishes for physical reasons should ask questions in advance.

In rural areas, there is an unwritten tradition that the number of wedding dishes must be an even number. If it is odd, it will be unlucky, that is the number of dishes for a funeral. If the number of wedding dishes is 8 dishes, it symbolizes wealth, 10 dishes symbolize perfection, and 12 dishes symbolize happiness every month. For example, it is popular in the south of the Yangtze River, and the banquet consists of eight cold dishes and eight hot dishes. Moreover, the wedding day is usually chosen on the eighth, eighteenth and twenty-eighth day of the second month of the lunar calendar. If you want to make a fortune, you should add eight to the eighth and make a fortune again.

There is also the naming of dishes should try to choose auspicious words to express good wishes to the new couple, psychologically please the guests and set off the atmosphere.

Generally, it's 10- 12 big bowl: fish cake with meatballs, braised pork, two hot pots, then a few vegetables, lentils, edamame or cabbage, then tremella soup, fried fish made of flour and fish, then you can serve a braised duck, and then you can see what the current seasonal dishes are flexible, for example.
