每年农历四月初八这天,从江县各地少数民族群众身着民族盛装,制作节日特色美食黑色糯米饭,族人齐聚举行各种活动欢度这个节日。为了孩子们了解“四月八”的习俗,感受节日的快乐气氛。我园于5月12日上午开展了“壮乡牛牛•特色美食大比拼”活动,让我们一起走进从江县刚边乡中心幼儿园感受浓浓的民族风情吧!








四月八的由来


每年的农历四月初八,在从江的苗、侗、壮等少数民族地区,人们至今保留着吃黑米饭这一古老的习俗,俗称“黑米饭节”。在我们壮乡,节日前当地群众把山上采来的野生新鲜南烛叶,用传统的春米机捣碎后挤出黑汁泡糯米,蒸熟后就做成了黑糯米饭。黑糯米饭有一种特殊的枫香树清香味,桑软而又不腻,据说还可消食健胃。它是节日期间当地人的主食,也是馈赠亲朋好友的佳品。据说吃黑米饭和牛有关,甚至有人说是牛的节日。
过去,在农村务农是离不开牛的,牛一年四季都在帮人们劳作,尤其是在春耕时节,牛不停的耕地耙田,对人们有着很大的贡献,牛说:“我这么辛苦的帮你们劳作,你们人类也要吃我的粪便以作回报”。后来农民们为了表达对牛的敬重,在春耕将至时节,农历四月初八吃用南烛叶染黑的糯米饭,以黑米代替牛的黑类,表示对牛的敬重和牛在人们心中的地位,这个牛的节日一直延传至今······
黑米饭就这样一代一代传下来了,而如今的黑糯米饭节,便是从江少数民族人民用来交流沟通、体现现在幸福美满生活,已成为民间传统的美食习俗节日了。
