The habit of eating mutton soup

July 22 - it will usher in the last solar term of the summer of this year - the heat.

In the exclusive column of "Beijing Evening News", which was published on July 20th, I wrote a special article about the summer heat.

The summer heat is the 12th solar terms in the 24 solar terms. Since the vernal equinox, the sun has been running to 120 degrees of the Yellow River, and the tail of the Big Dipper is in the "not" position. This is the so-called "Douwei·Xiao Jing Aids" It means no, it is a big heat. The summer heat is coming, and the hottest "Zhongfutian" in the year has followed.

Then, what is the meaning of "not" in the "Tongwei·filial piety aid deed" in the "Tongwei·Xiao Jing Aid Deeds"? "No" is the eighth of the 12 branches, and it is located in the lunar calendar in June. Therefore, the lunar calendar in June is also called "not the moon", and it also reflects the "all things".

Ming Chen Sanzhao's "The Complete Works of the Years of the Year" and the "Daily Branch" "No": "Nothing, all things are good, there is a taste. No, taste is also, the June is also the same, so it is not." Visible, "Not" through the "taste", the fruit, the grain is not good, it depends on the big summer days.

The Eastern Han Xu Shen "Said Wen Jie Zi" explained: "No, taste also. June tastes also." And why people eat lamb when the summer heat comes, also because of this "no" word. In the Zodiac combination, “not” and “sheep” are paired as “not sheep” – eating sheep is also a timely need.

The folks believe that after eating the mutton, the mutton can be “invigorating the qi” and “dampnessing”, which is called “Fuyang”. The so-called “Fuyang a bowl of soup, no need to prescribe the prescription”, “Summer drinking sheep soup, healthy and aphrodisiac”, That is what it means, the original man is better!

There are many special diets, such as eating lychee, eating grass, and eating half a group. Xiancao, also known as jelly grass and immortal grass, has a magical effect of cooling off the heat. The folks say that "the June summer heats the grass, and the life is like a fairy."

However, it is most representative to eat Fuyang in the heat, and there are also "Fuyang Festival" in some areas.

Mutton is the most delicious among the animal meats that people eat. It is really "June tastes". In the past, from Fujian in the south to Shandong and Henan in the north, there are customs of eating sheep. Especially in the summer, it is necessary to "drink the summer sheep" - that is, the mutton soup has a great summer.

The custom of eating Fuyang has existed since the Western Han Dynasty. There is such a saying in "Han Shu Yang Biography": "Tianjia is suffering, when he is old, Fu La, Heng Yang and Lamb, fighting for self-study." At that time, the peasants had the phenomenon of cooking lamb and cooking lamb in summer and winter. .

According to the "Han Biography of the East", the imperial court of the Western Han Dynasty also had the practice of "the sacred sacred, sacred from the official meat". The "official meat" here should refer to the welfare nature of the beef and mutton supplied by the government. Because the person who split the meat has not arrived, waiting for the unused oriental cockroaches to do their own hands and cut the meat home, became the ancient people to eat meat and talk.

In fact, eating lamb in summer is also a health care need. In the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classics, Four-Tune and Great God", it is emphasized: "When the yin and yang are four, the roots of all things are also, so the saints raise the yang in spring and summer, and raise the yin in autumn and winter." And the mutton soup can make up the "buy Yuanyang", Zhenghe Health requirements for “yangyang”.

Of course, it is to ensure the need for nutrition in the hot season, that is, the so-called "drinking wine and self-employment."
