Laba Festival is a traditional festival in China.Chinese people have been celebrating the traditional festival and enjoying special Laba food for centuries. Laba porridge, Laba garlic(蒜), Laba tofu and Laba noodles are traditional Laba foods.
Traditionally, Laba porridge is the most important element(元素) of the festival. Since the earliest beginning of the Song Dynasty, this porridge has been popular in the royal count(宫廷) and common families. Laba porridge is called “Union Food” in Henan Province, which is a food custom in memory of China's national hero Yue Fei.
Another custom is making Laba garlic. The process is very simple. Peel the garlic cloves(蒜瓣) and wash them. After drying, put them into a jar(罐子), and then pour vinegar into it. At last, seal the jar. Gradually, those garlic cloves will turn green. By the time of the Spring Festival, you can taste Laba garlic while eating dumplings.
In some places of the North that do not produce or produce less of the rice, people eat Laba noodles instead of the Laba porridge. On the day before the festival, people cut up all kinds of fruits and vegetables and prepare the noodle roll. Then on the morning of Laba Festival, the whole family can eat Laba noodles.
Laba tofu is the folk speciality(特产) of Yi County in Anhui Province. Before Laba Festival, every family in Yi County will dry tofu in the open space.
