Laba porridge is a kind of porridge made with various ingredients during the Laba Festival, also called Qibao Wuwei porridge. Eat Laba porridge to celebrate the harvest, which has been passed down to this day. In ancient times, on the eighth day of December in the lunar calendar, there was a custom in China to eat "laba porridge" ("laba rice" in some places). "Yanjing Sui Shi Ji · Laba Congee": "Laba congee people use yellow rice, white rice, river rice, millet, water chestnut rice, chestnuts, red river beans, peeled jujube paste, etc., cooked in boiling water, and dyed red peach kernels, almonds, and melon seeds for external use , Peanuts, hazel, pine nuts, white sugar, brown sugar, and trivial grapes for some dyeing.". Like Laba Rice, Laba Congee is a relic of ancient wax sacrifices. "The Sacrifice and the Special Sacrifice of the Suburbs" says that the wax sacrifice is "in the year and December, all things are gathered together and the food is delicious." Laba porridge is combined with all kinds of food and cooked in a pot with rice, which is to gather all things and reconcile thousands of things. Spiritual meaning.
Laba is the New Year, the time flies so fast, and it's time to do the New Year's goods again ☺️☺️, are you ready? "
