Dragon Boat Festival: frequent rains in Northeast
China and South China,
strong rains in Jiangnan and South China
Hu Xiao, chief meteorological analyst at China Weather Network, said that during the Dragon Boat Festival, my country's weather showed a wide range of precipitation and large changes in temperature and temperature.
In the north, the northern and northeastern parts of North China are affected by the cold vortex, with frequent rains and a drop in temperature; while in the south, the cold and warm air confronts each other, the heavy rainfall belt presses southward, and the overall rainfall is relatively strong.
During this Dragon Boat Festival, the precipitation in my country is mainly concentrated in northern North China, southern Northeast China, southeastern Northwest China, Southwest China, Jiangnan, South China, and northern Xinjiang. Among them, southern Jiangnan and northern South China are heavily rained, especially Guizhou, Hunan, etc. There is heavy rain or heavy rain in the area, or traffic travel may be affected.
Among the big cities, Wuhan, Changsha, Guiyang, Hefei, Nanjing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou have a high probability of rain during holidays. Everyone should take rain gear when traveling, and pay attention to the latest forecast and warning information, avoid heavy rainfall periods, and travel safely.
In terms of temperature, at the beginning of the holiday, there will be high temperature weather above 35°C in the central and southern parts of North China, Huanghuai and other places. It will be sunny and hot, so you need to wear sunscreen when you go out; while in southern China and other places, the sultry feeling is still there, and friends need to take precautions against heatstroke and cool down. .
Hu Xiao reminded that local thunderstorms, strong winds, hail and other strong convective weather are very likely to occur in the afternoon during the Dragon Boat Festival. Friends need to pay more attention when going out; at the same time, take protective measures, wear masks, and wash hands frequently when you go home.
The sweet and savory zongzi will definitely refresh the impression of traditional zongzi.
On the Midsummer Dragon Boat Festival, pray for good health. As a special food of the Dragon Boat Festival, zongzi will cause a battle between salty and sweet almost every year.
The dispute between sweet and salty rice dumplings is actually related to factors such as climate environment, cultural customs and so on.
The northerners prefer the sweet taste, while the southerners prefer the salty.
This is mainly because the residents in many places in the north mainly eat pasta, and zongzi are generally used as desserts after meals, so zongzi likes to be sweet; while the climate in the south is warm and humid, suitable for rice growth, and the residents mainly eat rice, so zongzi is generally eaten as a main meal. The salty mouth is also a matter of course.
With the development of food, the taste of zongzi has become more and more diversified. From durian and peppercorns to spicy strips and snail noodles, some people feel that they are "dark dishes" just by their names.
The seemingly dark combination is actually unique, combining innovation and traditional tastes perfectly, making people call it "really fragrant"!
Come and see these wonderful flavored dumplings.
Everything can be used to make stuffing, and the wonderful flavors of rice dumplings are endless.
In the survey of wonderful rice dumplings launched by China Weather Network, durian rice dumplings came out on top and became the most wanted taste by netizens.
For durian lovers, durian and glutinous rice are sweet and pleasant together, and tastes even better when refrigerated.
Longjing tea zongzi followed closely. Compared with other zongzi, its biggest feature is its pleasant fragrance.
Longjing tea zongzi is made of glutinous rice soaked in Longjing tea. The boiled zongzi has an emerald brown color. You can freely put some bean paste or red dates in the middle. The fragrance of zong leaves and the fragrance of Longjing tea taste sweet and glutinous, which is very relaxing. Tired, as if in the Longjing tea garden, the tongue and teeth are fragrant, and the taste is unforgettable!
When it comes to konjac spicy strips and meat dumplings, friends who like spicy strips must be ready to move.
Compared with the traditional savory and sweet zongzi, the spicy zongzi has a very special taste.
This style is to wrap the spicy sticks into the dumplings, and gently bite into a strong spicy sticky aroma that surges to the tip of the tongue. The sweet and glutinous glutinous rice and the salty and spicy sticky sticks give people unlimited imagination.
In addition to spicy strips, this zongzi also combines pork belly, sausage, dried plum, Sichuan pepper and konjac cool. The multiple fillings give the zongzi a more layered taste and make your taste buds jump.
Have you heard of snail rice dumplings and stinky tofu dumplings (also known as stinky foot dumplings)?
You can imagine the taste, it smells sour.
These two kinds of rice dumplings perfectly combine the characteristics of snacks. They are sweet, salty and stinky. They taste amazing. The taste brings different contrasting feelings to the taste buds, and it attracts you who have similar smells!
There are also pepper dumplings and pickled pepper meat dumplings. The taste is also very attractive, but the taste is too exciting. Among them, pickled pepper has the characteristics of spicy but not dry, spicy and slightly sour. When it is used as filling and combined with meat , this taste is absolutely refreshing, and those who like spicy food can enjoy it.
In addition, the Curry Mustard Lotus Paste Dumpling, Matcha Cranberry Jam Dumpling, and Bird's Nest Purple Potato Crystal Dumpling are even more unusual and come out of the circle with a combination of various ingredients.
For example, curry mustard lotus paste, curry, mustard and lotus paste, this combination sounds completely unimaginable what it tastes like, sweet coconut and delicious curry, coupled with more exciting mustard, challenge and taste To a variety of flavors, it perfectly interprets what is a wonderful flower in the heavy taste, and the best in the wonderful flower.
Matcha cranberry jam is also rich in ingredients. When the fragrance of matcha meets the sweetness and sourness of cranberries, the fruity taste is fresh and the taste is multi-layered. Friends who like sweet taste may wish to try it.
The bird's nest purple potato crystal dumpling can be described as a high-end version of the materials used in the dumpling industry.
As a traditional food to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, zongzi embodies people's wishes for a better life. I believe there will always be a "zongzi" for you.
China Weather Network warmly reminds that although zongzi is good, it is not easy to digest, so don't be greedy.
I wish you all a healthy Dragon Boat Festival.
