We have Yúshēng on Renri of the CNY

KJ Lim — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 07:02:33 +0000

Yesterday (31.01.2009) was the seventh day or Renri (人日, literally Human Day) of the Chinese new year. Back in home town, many people will eat Yúshēng (捞生) on this day with hope for a prosperous new year and a great fortunes ahead.

Wikipedia has a good description about the process of eating Yúshēng(捞生),

Families and friends gather around the table and, on cue, proceed to toss the shredded ingredients into the air with chopsticks while saying auspicious wishes out loud to mark the start of a prosperous new year and it’s customary that the higher you toss, the greater your fortunes

Human always take things for granted. When you were in that environment which easily to get something, you may easily ignore or don’t take part. However, when you are far, far away from home town, then, you will start to miss it very much. Yes, we missed it (kind of ironic) and decided to prepare our Yúshēng here. This year, we have company celebrated the Renri together with us . Miss Pho joined us for the celebration and preparation.

We can’t get all ingredients as mentioned in the recipe but we managed to get 90% of them. Preparation works took some time but still manageable.

Now we were almost done for our Yúshēng.

Finally, we did it and have our 捞生 (捞地风生水起). We also have fried noodles as well.

ps: Salmon fish is cheap here, therefore, to get a nice raw salmon fish is not a good problem.
