Chapter 895: Boiling Plums
Ella nodded and said, "She's right, it's true, although the impact won't be too big, but if you mix it directly into warm water, the taste of the pulp that can be preserved should be more complete." ”
If Tang Chengnian hadn't said it casually, Ella wouldn't have remembered it.
She stayed in the East for too long, and together with Miss Wang, she always devoted herself to the study of tea ceremony, but she forgot many subtleties of flower tea.
But she was good at these things in the past, so compared to people who have no foundation at all, she is still a little thorough.
Now that even Ella has said this, Miss Wang naturally won't refute it anymore.
She said to Tang Chengnian very gratefully: "You really helped me a lot. ”
Miss Wang's favorite thing is the tea ceremony, whether it is ancient tea or flower tea, which can make her skills better, and she is very grateful.
How dare Tang Chengnian take credit? She waved her hand and smiled, "It's nothing." ”
Although she said this, Miss Wang didn't think so, she only felt that Tang Chengnian really knew a lot in her heart, no wonder the ancients had a teacher in the threesome. She said to Tang Chengnian: "You wait a minute, I'll go and get the pulp and dried fruit, and I'll be back soon." After turning the stove back to low heat, Miss Wang quickly left. Of course, this time she went not far away, in the garden, there was a pavilion in it, and after Miss Wang picked those fruits, she stored them directly in this pavilion.
She came back after a while, and sure enough, she was still carrying a Sumeru bag.
Tang Chengnian glanced at it and felt worried, how many dried fruits did Miss Wang take.
Although the tea is delicious, it can be ......
She glanced at the jars on the table, and felt that her eyes were clouded.
How much tea should she and Shang Liujia drink? Just wanting to taste the taste, be able to judge, and distinguish between high and low, she felt a headache, and she couldn't concentrate on saying which one she liked to drink, and which one was better for herself? However, Tang Chengnian complained to herself a few words, and she also understood that since it was such a solemn arrangement, she couldn't deal with the past casually, and Miss Wang finally asked them for a favor, so naturally she couldn't excuse herself.
At this time, Miss Wang turned over some movements similar to building blocks, and pieced them together to form a wooden platform supported by upright wooden columns. She took out the dried fruit of a red fruit, laid it on the wooden table, cut it into fine pieces with a knife, and then put it in the tea bowl on the stove, and turned it to medium heat.
While the tea bowl was simmering carefully, Miss Wang cleaned the wooden case and knife while explaining to Tang Chengnian and Shang Liujia the fruit she had just put in: "This is a dried fruit made from plum flesh, which tastes more sweet and sour than the ordinary plum meat, and no other seasonings, such as salt and sugar, are added, so the taste is more natural." Its sweet and sour taste is innate, and the plants planted on this mountain, no matter what the flesh is, are somewhat different from the outside. ”
Speaking of this, Miss Wang was still a little embarrassed.
"I think the plum flesh and plum petals are more beautiful, and if you don't think the taste is good, you must sue me."
When it comes to adjusting the taste, Miss Wang always has infinite patience.
When she said these words, the color of the tea soup in the tea bowl changed again, it was brown and reddish just now, and now it has completely become reddish-brown, of course, because it is a tea soup, so this reddish-brown color appears light, and the tea soup is very clear, because the materials used by Miss Wang are very exquisite, whether it is tea leaves or plum blossom petals, they are very complete, so there is no crumble in the tea soup, but in the flying tea soup, there will occasionally be wisps of dark red silk, which is the dried plum flesh and fruit that she chopped just now.
The tea soup in the tea bowl boiled again, and the plum meat was so finely chopped that it looked like it was about to melt after only a while.
Tang Chengnian sat in his seat, stretching his neck hard to study.
At least judging from the color of the tea soup, this bowl of tea will definitely not disappoint them.
At this time, Ella took a strainer and a silver spoon with a long handle and handed it to Miss Wang.
Miss Wang naturally took it from her hand, and didn't even thank her, which was a very incredible thing for the extremely polite Miss Wang, but it also meant that Ella was close enough to her to treat her as her own person, she barely glanced to the side, as if she expected Ella to bring the strainer and silver spoon, and directly reached out and took those from her hand.
Of course, there is not only one silver wire mesh on the strainer, but it is slowly wound around the edge of the net with very fine silver wire, and after the edge of the entire silver wire mesh is protected, one end is rewound around a handle that is the same length as the silver spoon, so that Miss Wang can move naturally and does not need to worry about being burned by the steam floating on the tea bowl.
If Miss Wang's hands are as smooth as peeling lychees, it will surely make many people feel heartache.
She took the simplest precautions and reached for the silver mesh into the tea bowl.
The silver mesh was treated without any taste and would not spoil any taste, like the silver spoon she held in her other hand.
Miss Wang uses her right hand, so she holds the silver wire mesh in her left hand, and after putting the strainer into the tea bowl, she holds the silver spoon in her right hand, and reaches in as well, scooping out the materials in the tea bowl one by one, and pouring it on the silver wire mesh she holds in her left hand. The silver wire mesh is slightly skewed, which makes it easier to flip the silver spoon, and when the material falls on the strainer, the tea falls back into the tea bowl along the small staggered holes in the silver wire mesh.
She does every step patiently, without mistakes and without being slow.
Just now, when Miss Wang put the silver wire mesh into it for the first time, the tea soup in the tea bowl was about the same as it had just touched the cold things now, as if frightened, and cooled down a little temperature, and the water vapor was still pervasive but not as turbulent as when it was boiling, so she seized these times, and constantly scooped up the tea soup with a silver spoon and the materials, and then poured it on the cold silver wire mesh, while the silver wire mesh was contaminated with heat, and at the same time distributed less and less cold feeling to these tea soups, temporarily maintaining a warm temperature, but, The flame in the stove never went out, and it was apparently only a matter of time before the tea boiled again.
Soon, the tea soup in the tea bowl was surging again, with waves and waves.
However, Miss Wang had already fished out all the ingredients in the tea soup and washed them away with the silver wire mesh.
"Alright."
Miss Wang extinguished the fire in the stove and brought an empty teapot.
This is obviously a special teapot, the middle is empty, and when Miss Wang puts the teabowl in, Tang Chengnian finds out that this empty teapot is specially designed for this teapot, and when Miss Wang covers the teapot, it is immediately tightly sealed. Then, this teapot is the same as an ordinary teapot, just need to pour it, you can pour out the tea, Miss Wang this time first to Tang Chengnian, then to Shang Liujia, and finally Ella, herself.
The fragrance of plum blossom petals and plum flesh is different, but there is a commonality that makes the scent blend together without looking contradictory. This time, the tea fragrance of Yuluochun finally took on a suitable position, and in this cup of plum theme tea, a very heavy background was made, and the plum petals and plum flesh were obviously two pigments of similar colors, which exuded enthusiasm and poignant sourness in a piece of verdant.
The sourness is not eye-catching, after drinking this cup of tea, the deepest memory is the sweetness that kills in bitterness and sourness.
Sometimes, happiness is really comparative.
Eating sweet, some people just can't taste it, only in the sour and bitter background, the sweetness will be rare.
It will also make people cherish.
Miss Wang finished drinking it herself, of course, she was satisfied, but she also had to see what other people thought.
She looked at Ella, who was closest to her, and since the tea was made specifically for Ella, the first thing to consider was of course Ella's idea. Otherwise, Ella directly said bitterness just now, and she would not have dealt such a big blow to Miss Wang. Even if Shang Liujia said something contrary to Ella's opinion, or even a big compliment, Miss Wang would definitely recook it directly for Ella's judgment, Ella is usually not very picky, but she rarely has a hobby, Miss Wang hopes that she can be picky.
Of course, Miss Wang also hopes that what she is doing this time really caters to her preferences.
There's no shame in catering to someone's preferences, if that person is that important to her.
When Ella saw Miss Wang coming over, she naturally understood what she was expecting.
She nodded: "Yu Yan, it's delicious." ”
This time she called Miss Wang's name again, this time out of solemnity.
This means that it is not because she pities her and sympathizes with her that she does like this cup of flower tea made with plums.
Miss Wang also smiled, this time she was relieved.
After Ella expressed her liking, her whole person seemed much more relaxed, looking at Tang Chengnian and Shang Liujia waiting for their judgment.
Tang Chengnian was helpless and piled up rhetoric, she was really not good at it.
"I think it's delicious, I like the taste!" Tang Chengnian fooled the past.
In fact, she didn't say a lie against her will, she did think so, but it's one thing to like it, and it's another thing to think about it with lines.
One Ella is concise and clear, and the other Tang Chengnian is casually perfunctory, they both think it is good, but they can't say what is good.
So the three of them set their eyes on Shang Liujia almost at the same time.
Now, the pressure is on his side.
From this point of view, if you can still think of words to describe it, I'm afraid that Shang Liujia is the only one left.
He smiled helplessly, it seemed that if he couldn't say it, these three people would definitely be disappointed.
Although he didn't feel much pressure himself, if he disappointed the three people opposite, just because he couldn't say a precise description, I am afraid that Shang Liujia himself would feel that he had done too badly. R1152
