Cold noodles chose Group B topics: Good luck, good luck, gold and silver, good luck. <br /><br />Good luck is the same as big chicken and big chestnut, so this dish uses chicken and chestnuts to cook together. The booming dried peppers add beautiful color and intoxicating flavor to ordinary chestnut chicken, making this dish more attractive. Golden chestnuts are like gold pieces, implying wealth and prosperity in the New Year. <br /><br />This dish works very well. After cooking, the red soup symbolizes good luck in the New Year. All the materials are combined together to satisfy the cravings and auspicious. I wish you all good luck in the New Year.

Tofu contains high-quality protein, so you won't be afraid of getting fat if you eat more.<br /><br /> Tips:<br /><br /> I use Ganzhu brand for fermented soybean dace. Both fermented soybean and fish are very hard and fragrant. They feel better than Cantonese flowers. Don't buy three of them at the same time on special price. They seem to be called Golden Cherry Blossom? It's too terrible to eat. The fermented beans and fish are rotten.

At New Year's Eve dinner, fish is indispensable on the table. It is precisely "fish" that means "surplus" and places more on life and symbolizes a good life in the coming year. Moreover, at New Year's Eve dinner, fish should be "whole fish"<br /> Steaming is a more commonly used method in Cantonese cuisine, which can better preserve the delicacy of the fish. Red fish meat is tender and has less thorns. It is the choice of many Cantonese people at festive banquets. It is also the method of using steaming. It is simple and can taste the delicious flavor of the fish.

"Sixi Meatballs" add a joyful and warm atmosphere to the banquet with its auspicious celebration and reunion meanings. This dish not only brings people a feeling of joy and harmony, but also expresses ardent blessings, allowing the guests and guests to enjoy themselves, share beautiful moments, and leave beautiful memories. Sixi meatballs are the most popular auspicious dish. <br />It is rumored that the name of Sixi meatballs originated in the Tang Dynasty. One year, the court opened examinations, and students from all over the country flocked to the capital, including Zhang Jiuling. The results of the scientific research came out, and Zhang Jiuling, who was dressed in poor clothes, actually won the first place. The emperor appreciated his talents and recruited him as his son-in-law. At that time, Zhang Jiuling's hometown was hit by floods, and her parents had left their homes and had no news of her. On the day of the wedding, Zhang Jiuling happened to learn about the whereabouts of her parents, so she sent someone to take them to the capital. The joy was added to the joy. Zhang Jiuling was happy and asked the chef to cook an auspicious dish to celebrate. The dishes were served and saw four large meatballs that were fried, steamed and poured with soup. Zhang Jiuling asked her what she meant, and the smart chef replied: "This dish is 'four rounds'. The first happiness is the title of the master's list; the second happiness is the marriage; the third happiness is the son-in-law; and the fourth happiness is the family reunion." Zhang Jiuling laughed loudly when he heard this and praised him repeatedly. He added: "'Siyuan 'is not as loud and pleasant as' Sixi '. Let's just call it' Sixi Wan'." From then on, this dish has been a must-have at banquets for major festive events such as weddings.

Recruiting money and treasure

Recruiting money and treasure

Pig hands, pork knuckles, etc. occupy a very important position in New Year's dishes. In Cantonese cuisine, the words "getting rich, getting rich, and soliciting wealth are all made with pig's trotters or pork knuckles, as well as hair sprouts. Therefore, every Spring Festival, the price of these things increases, and a pair of pork knuckles costs almost 100 yuan. However, the Spring Festival is still far away, so I don't need to make this lucky pork knuckle so expensive, hehe. This dish mainly uses pork knuckles, as well as Nostoc, which makes a fortune. Haha, the writing language of China is really interesting.
