free meal

White food is called Chaganyide in Mongolian, which is a dairy product of cattle, horses, sheep and camels. Red food is called Ulan Yide in Mongolian, that is, the meat products of cattle, sheep and other livestock. Free food is a kind of food for Mongolian guests. According to Mongolian customs, white means purity, auspiciousness and loftiness, so free food is the highest courtesy for Mongolian guests. When visiting a Mongolian herder's home, the host will bring out all kinds of white food such as milk skin, cheese, milk tea, milk wine and so on for the guests to taste. Among them, there is a "Chagan Hu Rude" milk dessert, namely milk tofu or milk cake, which is a famous Mongolian white food. Although it is made of milk tofu, sugar and butter as raw materials, it is extremely exquisite, not only delicious, but also beautiful in appearance, just like a beautiful handicraft. Because the free food is made of milk as raw material, adding seasonings such as white sugar, it is not only delicious, but also very nutritious. Some free foods have certain therapeutic effects on rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases. Mongolians should daub it with white food on holidays or when their children wear new clothes, and the Mongolian yurts used for wedding ceremonies should also be daubed with white food to show their blessings. There are also birthdays, full years old, weddings, and long trips, when old people hold a blessing ceremony with snow-white milk in order to be safe and smooth.
