今天除了是“520”，也是“小满”，夏季的第二个节气。 This year's May 20 is not only a special day for romance, but also marks Xiaoman (Grain Buds), which is the second solar term of summer. 小满之名，有两层含义。一与农候相关。“小满，四月中，谓麦之气至此方小满，因未熟也。”二与降水相关。民谚有言：“小满大满江河满。”南方的暴雨开始增多，降水频繁。“满”，既可指籽粒之熟，也可指雨水之盈。 "Fullness for grains, fullness for rivers." It's a transition period when wheat is about to ripen, with subtle changes in nature, such as rising water levels and temperatures. 小满前后，田间地头的野菜正蓬勃生长，苦菜是先民最早食用的野菜之一。《诗经》曰：采苦采苦，首阳之下。 Grain Buds is the time when kinds of wild herb grow in abundance across the country. It's a season for eating the herb, which is one of the earliest edible potherbs in China. 古人用苦菜醒酒，从前吃苦菜是有充饥之用，如今小满时节吃苦菜，却是吃苦尝鲜。苦菜烫熟后，汤汁用以煮汤、和面，或是做馅、炒菜，清爽之外也风味各具。 It tastes a little bitter and tart, but also sweet. It can be made into different types of dishes. It tastes savory and helps people feel refreshed. Some people boil the herb with water and then squeeze out the juice, which can be used to make soup.
