In China, the Dragon is considered the greatest gourmet of all symbols. In addition to the fact that he loves exquisite and complex dishes, they must be prepared from fresh, natural products, without the use of semi-finished products and canned goods. Even if you want to serve simple cutlets, you shouldn’t buy ready-made minced meat; it’s better to make it yourself from fresh meat.
There are no specific dishes that should be prepared for the New Year’s table. You can choose your favorite, but it is important that there is variety and abundance. The main product is necessarily meat, any and in any form – fried, baked, boiled, etc. Fresh and cooked vegetables are perfect as a side dish. Sweets are not forbidden, on the contrary, the Dragon is considered to have a sweet tooth, so on New Year’s Eve you can serve your favorite dessert at the end of the feast.
You can also appease the Green Dragon with spicy dishes. It is recommended to prepare something spicy from Chinese cuisine or simply serve hot sauce with cooked meat.
