After the 12th day of the lunar month comes the New Year.

Snow presses against the bamboo branches, and on the Cold Festival day, the gentle wind conveys the ancient charm.

The porridge fills the jade-like bowls, and the flavors of the world are rich, carrying deep emotions.

The cold snow brews tea, slowly simmering the years in tranquility.

The plum fragrance complements the porridge, and with simple pottery and light drinking, the times are peaceful. 

I. Warm porridge at the end of the year, good wishes for the New Year

The New Year drum beats, ushering in a new year. It's another year of the Winter Solstice Festival. In this season of transition from the old to the new and of praying for renewal, Ruize Color Masterbatch, with sincere feelings, offers everyone the warmest wishes: May you and your family have everything "served" well in life and a happy life; May your career "grain" perfectly and keep growing steadily. May you be healthy and happy on the Winter Solstice and always healthy throughout the year.

The Winter Solstice Festival originated from the "Wax Sacrifice" in ancient agricultural civilization. The ancients called the twelfth month of the year "Wax Month" and made a "Wax Solstice Porridge" by boiling eight kinds of grains to offer sacrifices to the ancestors and deities. This was not only an expression of gratitude for the natural gifts but also a prayer for a bountiful harvest in the coming year. According to legend, when Yue Fei led his troops to resist the Jin Dynasty, the people gave porridge to comfort them. Later, people made "Thousand Family Porridge" on the Winter Solstice Day to commemorate the heroic spirit; after Buddhism was introduced, the day of Siddhartha Gautama's enlightenment coincided with the Winter Solstice, and the tradition of offering porridge in temples gave the festival the connotation of compassion and helping others.

II. Customs of the Laba Festival

The sense of ritualism of Laba is not only reflected in the warmth of a bowl of porridge, but also in the wisdom accumulated over time in daily life. From the north to the south, different regions celebrate this winter festival in various ways. 

Having Laba Congee

Red beans, glutinous rice, lotus seeds, lotus pods... Various ingredients are combined in one pot, creating a thick and rich sense of happiness. In the north, dates are added; in the south, coconut flesh is included. The regional differences reveal the common love for life. 

2. Making Wolwa Jie (Garlic Preserves)

On the 12th day of the twelfth lunar month, peel the garlic cloves and soak them in rice vinegar. Seal them until the New Year's Eve. As the garlic cloves gradually turn green, they become sweet, sour, crispy and refreshing. They are an excellent match for dumplings as a side dish and also embody the traditional wisdom of "counting the year (garlic)" on the 12th day of the twelfth lunar month. 

3. Laba Tofu

This is a custom in Qian County, Anhui Province. The tofu blocks are dried and then coated with salt water. After being exposed to the sun and dew for several days, they turn into golden, hard Laba tofu. It can be stored for a long time and is suitable for slicing, stir-frying, and stewing. It is a remarkable culinary achievement of transforming simple ingredients into a delicious dish.
