Chapter 66: Sister's Tea Fragrance
The female proprietor listened to the sound and discerned the water, and when the silver kettle had just boiled the water, she removed the fire. This car has put the three teacups together in the porcelain bowl, lifted the kettle and poured the cups, cleaned the body, and kept warm. The teacups were re-divided, and the large porcelain cup was scalded, and then the process of brewing tea officially began.
The female owner uses the downward pitch direct rush method. She used a teaspoon to gently pour the dry tea in the porcelain dish into the large porcelain cup, and then slowly poured the hot water in the kettle along the wall of the pot.
When the tea leaves are completely stretched under the water, and the tea soup is dyed a bright green color, it is time to make the soup.
At this time, the female proprietor picked up a small silver water scoop, divided the tea from the large teacup and scooped it into three teacups.
Yan Shu looked at the big teapot and had to sigh privately, although there is a cumbersome ritual beauty of scooping back and forth like this, but in terms of ease of use, this time and space, the lack of teapots and the lag of the overall development of tea utensils are like Sun Wukong's complaints about those weapons before he met the golden hoop stick: not suitable! Incompetent!
The female proprietor motioned to invite her to drink tea, she picked up the teacup and smelled the fragrance first, well, yes, the aroma is clear, the tea leaves are properly preserved, and the fragrance is not lost. took a sip, with a little sweetness in the bitterness, and it was different from Dongting Biluochun, missing the iconic floral and fruity fragrance. Overall, it was Yan Shu who received the best tea in the memory of all the taste buds of the predecessor.
The pitiful place is here, the Yan family is not without first-class good tea, but they can't drink the mouths of these three young ladies. Even when her mother was alive, her mother's mind was not on cultivating her daughter's tea talent, and she only blindly felt sorry for herself every day, and time passed in vain.
Yan Shu retracted her thoughts and couldn't help but say, "The tea made by my sister is so fragrant."
The female proprietor could hear that this was a sincere compliment, and looked at Yan Shu's little green hands holding the teacup, a child dressed as a man, don't be too gloomy. I saw it a long time ago, and I just thought it was fun.
The tea is only three rounds, and the taste has faded. Green tea is like this without drinking. The female proprietor got up and gave way, and directly ordered Yan Shu and asked her to make another case.
This made Tuoyun look forward to it, wanting to see what tricks the same tea could be brewed by Miss Yansan. This is his selfishness, he always feels that she has something to look at in terms of tea, the last time the three orange peel tea, he still couldn't suppress his curiosity, opened a taste, not to mention, the taste is really unique, the thick branches and leaves of the tea soup is extremely thick, moistened with a little orange peel of the old fragrance, after drinking, the appetite for eating is great, eat Ma Ma Xiang.
"So, I'll get an axe." Yan Shu was not pretentious, first went to clean his hands with clean water, and then sat down to boil water and prepare tea.
Yan Shu used the top-up method to make tea this time. The brewing of green tea is relatively simple, and in modern society, a pinch of tea and a glass can be drunk, and at the end of the eye, regardless of the lack of utensils, the most important thing is to stimulate the activity of tea and reproduce its freshness in the new year. The key lies in the control of the water temperature and the way the tea leaves are stretched and opened. Although it is more suitable to use the upper cast method in summer, it is not absolute.
The water boiled, Yan Shu warmed the cup like the female owner, and directly flushed a cup of white water, the waterline was slightly less than seven points full, leaving a little room for tea overflow, and dried there.
Taking advantage of this moment, Yan Shu got up and went to the desk, took a clean page from the rice paper used by the literati and scholars to write poems and leave Mobao for the guests, folded it in half, spread out the tea leaves on half of the paper, shook it lightly over the fire, and stopped after only a break from baking.
Seeing this, the female proprietor did not hesitate to show an approving expression.
