In the morning of January 7th, people eat this special porridge.
This is an image of 7 herbs on the bag.
They are Water dropwort水芹, Shepherd's Purse芜無薺, Cudweed鼠曲草 Chickweed繁縷,Nipplewort寶蓋草, Turnip蕪菁 and Radish白蘿蔔.
You can easily get freeze dried ones at a supermarket.
A book written in the ancient southeast China in the 6th century has a report that people made soup with seven herbs on 7th January. 6世紀中國南朝的著作『荊楚歳時記』說「正月七日為人日、以七種菜為羹」。
What nice to hear this so special…I hope you have enjoy the soup ..and have a beautiful januari….love from me 🍀❤️🐾🍀

ReplyDeleteI don't know about the seven herbs, but I consider 7 a lucky number.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious and healthy.
ReplyDelete🐰 我個人理解 : 「人日」即農歷正月初七; 原來日本風俗也有一月七日吃七草粥的習俗, 謝謝分享🙏
