We eat”七草粥(ななくさがゆ)” on the morning of January 7th in Japan.
なな means seven, くさ means grasses/herbs, and がゆ(かゆ) means rice porridge.
Therefore, 七草粥 means the seven herb rice porridge.
In addition, seven herbs are as below.
- セリ：water dropwort
- ナズナ：shepherd’s purse
- ゴギョウ：cudweed
- ハコベラ：chickweed
- ホトケノザ：henbit
- スズナ：turnip
- スズシロ：daikon radish
The purpose of eating the seven herbs rice porridge is to protect oneself against evils and invite good luck and longevity by eating the seven herbs that endure the cold winter.
