"Major Cold greets the year's turn; late winter's food scents the air." When the warm sun passes the 300° ecliptic longitude mark, the final chapter of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms slowly unfolds. Major Cold arrives with the year's most biting chill as promised. Cold waves sweep frost-laden winds through streets and alleys, yet cannot dispel the steam and sizzle of preparation for the New Year"—eating glutinous rice to dispel cold, holding year-end feasts, preserving cured meats. These millennia-old folk customs and elegant traditions hold Chinese people's gentle reverence for year's end and brew eager anticipation for the new spring. For SUNKONZ Multi-Function Blender users, one machine gently folds gently into this solar term's poetic New Year flavor into daily life.
Eating glutinous rice during Major Cold is an ancestral poetic tradition against the cold. Soft and sweet Cold-Dispelling Cake holds winter's most comforting warmth, a seasonal delicacy limited to this time. Traditional preparation is exacting: the 2:1 golden ratio of glutinous rice flour to rice flour must be precisely measured, and ingredients like red dates and walnuts must be ground fine and even, daunting many novices. With SUNKONZ Multi-Function Blender, this complexity disappears: place glutinous rice and rice in the Mixing cup, one touch yields powder fine as cloud and snow; add red dates and walnuts, and they become moist crumbs in moments. Follow the simplified steps: mix cooled brown sugar syrup into the rice flour to form a soft dough, layer into molds, sprinkle with fruit and nuts, and let steamer steam carry sweet fragrance past your windowsill. Crisp outside and tender within, Cold-Dispelling Cake (Xiaohan Gao) brings warmth down the throat, soothing winter's chill and becoming a year-end sweetness loved by all ages.
Beyond glutinous rice, the "Ya Ji"( year-end feast)—an ancient prototype of modern company parties—is Major Cold's highlight, embodying the warmth of family gathering. SUNKONZ Multi-Function Blender is the perfect poetic assistant for this reunion feast: after dining, one touch creates nourishing hot drinks—gentle red date and longan soup, rich walnut and black sesame paste—warmth spreading across the tongue, perfectly aligning with Major Cold's warm-tonifying health principles and making reunion time even more pleasant.
At the twelfth lunar month's end, the gods ascend to heaven to "report on the year's work," leaving the mortal realm free of taboos. With no need to choose auspicious dates and the farming season idle, the old folk scene was "busy village weddings at year's end," called "rushed marriages." SUNKONZ Multi-Function Blender becomes the family's ideal partner. Its eight functions, aligned with the Twenty-Four Solar Terms, turn the busyness of wedding prep into poetic daily ease, making newlywed life more comfortable.
Extreme cold must turn warm; year's end welcomes the new. SUNKONZ Multi-Function Blender uses fashion as its brush, health as its ink, and intelligence as its axis, finely outlining the poetry and warmth of millennia-old solar term traditions into life's beautiful canvas! This Major Cold, let SUNKONZ accompany you in preparing New Year flavors, warming your winter, and in your new family's kitchen comfort, quietly await spring's return and journey together into the new year!
