Dietary characteristics Life is full of various flavors, sour, sweet, bitter and spicy, and acid is dominant.
Qiandongnan Prefecture is the hometown of "eating sour".
In daily life, family banquets, banquets, weddings and funerals, sour food is everywhere.
Men, women and children all have an "acidophilic" hobby.
No wonder the local proverb says, "Don't eat sauerkraut for three days, and salvage the car on foot" (meaning to stumble on foot), which shows the characteristic efficacy and style of sauerkraut culture in southeastern Guizhou.
The world "eats in China".
In China, it is called salty in the north, sweet in the southeast and spicy in the west.
Dry climate is salt, humid climate is sweet, and humid climate is spicy.
Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan have their own tastes, and there are jokes about "not afraid of spicy", "not afraid of spicy" and "not afraid of spicy".
Specifically, Guizhou is sour and spicy, Sichuan is spicy and Hunan is fried and spicy.
Qiandongnan Prefecture is different from other regions in Guizhou, emphasizing and highlighting the word "sour" first, while other regions emphasize and highlight the word "spicy" first.
As the saying goes, "there is no expensive taste except oil and salt." Historically, Qiandongnan was seriously short of salt, so it could only be seasoned with acid and spicy. It can be seen that the custom of eating acid is not accidental. It is a comprehensive product of geographical environment, climatic conditions, product information and human physiological needs.
The climate in eastern and central Guizhou is humid and smoky, and diseases such as diarrhea and dysentery are prevalent. Acidophilia can not only increase appetite, but also help digestion and stop diarrhea.
Therefore, every household is short of several acid jars: acid jars, vinegar jars, pickled fish jars and pickled meat jars. There are also proverbs about the pickling season and preservation methods of sour food, such as pickling in March, pickling in August and pickling in January.
Due to historical and geographical reasons, Miao and Dong people in Qiandongnan have created their own unique sauerkraut diet style and technology, which is different from other regions and ethnic groups and has formed a distinctive "sauerkraut culture". There are nearly 10 kinds of techniques for making sauerkraut alone.
The longevity of human beings is really attributed to acid to a great extent: acidic food has the medicinal functions of preventing diseases and invigorating the stomach, dispelling doubts and refreshing, and preserving freshness.
The results of the fourth national census from 65438 to 0990 show that the proportion of longevity population in the total population in Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture is higher than that in Guangdong Province, a traditional longevity area, ranking among the top in the country.
Longevity is multifactorial, which should include the factor of "eating sour".
1988, in Vancouver, Canada, a group of reporters interviewed Li Fapin, the world champion of long-distance running for the elderly in Qiandongnan, and asked what was the secret of setting a world record for long-distance running for the elderly. Li Fapin replied: "If I can eat sauerkraut in my hometown, I will run fast." This is an amazing punch line.
At the end of this century, sour food, a traditional dietary custom with national characteristics in southeastern Guizhou, has been increasingly ignored by people.
Sour soup fish, salted fish, bacon, sour soup chicken, sour soup trotters, three-in-one sour soup, four-in-one sour soup ... some settled in Beijing, some flew into state banquets, some crossed the ocean, and more were transplanted to hotels. All Chinese and foreign tourists who come to Guizhou ask for authentic Kaili sour soup fish.
There are Dongxiang pickled fish, Zhenyuan Daocai, Kaili sour soup fish, Si Xia dog meat, Si Xia sour soup fish, citronella boiled fish, Chonganjiang sour soup fish, Dong Shi Camellia oleifera, social rice, Congjiang Xiang pig, Sansui Ma duck, Rongjiang Xiang sheep, Dong Guo, Dong Shi buttock, Dong Shi sheep and cattle.
The entertainment custom "setting off fireworks" is a traditional sports activity widely carried out by Zhuang and Dong people, which is popular in Guizhou, Hunan and Guangxi.
Every year during the Spring Festival or other major festivals, Dong people in Liping, Congjiang and other places will put on holiday costumes and hold fireworks competitions in villages according to traditional habits.
On the competition field, the contestants competed with each other, trying to put the fireworks wrapped in red and green cloth into each other's flower baskets by passing, covering, loading and running.
Fireworks are divided into the first gun, the second gun and the third gun.
According to Dong's legend, the first shot symbolizes good luck, the second shot symbolizes good weather, and the third shot symbolizes a bumper harvest.
"Flower Gun" has strong antagonism and fast conversion between attack and defense. It requires both personal breakthrough and overall cooperation.
Therefore, it is known as "Eastern Rugby".
