【Northeast】Yuanbao Lantern Dumplings

Overview

The 23rd of the twelfth lunar month is the Little New Year and the prelude to the Spring Festival. Although customs vary from place to place, the excitement is second only to the New Year. Tonight, there are firecrackers and fireworks. Starting from this day in the Northeast, every household will do a big cleaning, sweeping the house, wiping the furniture, cleaning the cupboards and kitchen utensils, and doing all kinds of washing. The house must be thoroughly cleaned. It will continue until New Year's Eve. Dumplings must be eaten on Xiaonian, especially in the morning. It is said that on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month every year, the Kitchen God will report the good and evil of the family to the Jade Emperor, and let the Jade Emperor reward and punish them. As the saying goes, you should send dumplings to the wind when sending off. In order to send off the Stove Lord to the west, you must eat dumplings before the sun comes up. I hope that the Stove Lord will say good things to heaven and keep the lower world safe. Although the Kitchen God is not worshiped nowadays, the custom of eating dumplings continues to this day. Today I used carrot juice and purple cabbage juice to make dough, and made two colors of Yuanbao dumplings with healthy ingredients, lantern shape, and a bright red background. It is auspicious and festive, welcoming the arrival of the Year of the Rooster!
