Major Snow means the coming of heavy snow. In the northern area of China, people will soon enjoy the scenery of “Ice blockading for hundreds of miles and snow flying thousands miles,” and in the south, there also will be a white world of flying snowflakes. In the period of Major Snow, it is bitterly cold. Thus, according to traditional Chinese medicine, it is a season to drink tonics. Drinking tonics helps pass the winter healthily by strengthening one’s immune system, promoting one’s metabolism and helping to guard against the cold. Lamb is the main food chosen by Chinese people during Major Snow. It is excellent for nourishing the body, promoting blood circulation and providing protection against the cold. It also can increase the digestive enzyme that helps digestion. People in Chongqing like having Potted Lamb Soup or Stewed Lamb Soup with their families and friends. Nanjing people like to stew the lamb with yams or wolfberries to make it more nutritious.
