Impression of Huzhou - Smoked Bean Tea

Class 507 of Changxing County Experimental Primary School? Qian Zhouyi

Our Huzhou is a good place . There are mountains and rivers here, beautiful scenery and people. It is a good place for sightseeing, living and traveling. It is also my hometown. When it comes to scenery, there are Anji Bamboo Forest, Deqing Mogan Mountain, Changxing Ancient Ginkgo Corridor, and Nanxun Ancient Town; when it comes to snacks, there are rice dumplings, Qianzhang Bao, and wontons; when it comes to celebrities, there are even more, such as the famous Tang poem "The Wanderer" Meng Jiao, the author of "Yin", Zhang Zhihe, who lived in Huzhou and wrote the beautiful line "Egrets Fly in front of Xisai Mountain", and the famous Qian Sanqiang... So, I am not bragging! In our Huzhou, there is also a kind of tea specially prepared for entertaining guests, called smoked bean tea. What? Don't you know? Then let me tell you about this unique and very special tea drink in Huzhou and surrounding areas, smoked bean tea.

Smoked bean tea is unique to Huzhou and surrounding areas. The main ingredients are: smoked beans, tangerine peel, and dried carrots. If you like, you can also add a little tea, sesame, dried bamboo shoots or osmanthus. Smoked beans are actually not a specialty product. They are just processed edamame and become smoked beans. The reason why we Huzhou people like to drink this kind of tea is not only because it tastes good, smoked bean tea also has many benefits. , it refreshes, ventilates, appetizers, strengthens the spleen, and has health care effects. The reason why I say it is strange is because it does not only have the aroma of tea, nor does it taste as light and fragrant as tea. It's salty. Smoked beans themselves are very salty, and we Huzhou people also regard them as a casual snack. Whenever you come to Huzhou as a guest, we always put salty melon seeds, light melon seeds, and smoked beans together as a treat for guests. Snacks. Coupled with the fragrance of dried tangerine peel and dried radish, you can't help but want to drink it. The brewed smoked bean tea is also very beautiful. Under the quiet water, the dark green smoked beans and red dried carrots, plus the orange-yellow tangerine peel and the white jade-like osmanthus complement each other, as if you are What is in front of me is not a cup of tea, but a piece of art. And you don’t have to worry about making it. You just need to put these ingredients together and pour them into water to make a delicious, salty, unique, delicious and delicious drink that will leave you with endless aftertaste. Whenever you are a guest, the host will make you a cup of smoked bean tea. When you drink it, you will feel a strong sense of warmth. Perhaps this is why Huzhou people love to drink tea.

There is also a legend about smoked bean tea: Fangfeng was another expert in water control at the same time as Dayu. Fangfeng used to control floods in Zhejiang. The local people used orange peels and wild sesame seeds to make tea to dispel dampness and drive away cold. They also used local roasted green beans to accompany the tea. Fangfeng was impatient and poured the beans into the tea. He ate the tea soup and baked beans in one bite. After eating like this, Fangfeng will become more powerful and his achievements in water control will be even more brilliant. (www..Com) This tea drinking custom has been followed for more than 2,800 years and was recorded by Lu Yu, the tea sage of the Tang Dynasty for more than 1,200 years. Since then, smoked bean tea has become more and more popular in urban and rural areas such as Huzhou, Hangzhou, and Jiaxing. There is also a poem about smoked bean tea, which describes the joyful mood of women in the Jiangnan area when making smoked beans: The salt soup in the boiling pot suddenly smells fragrant, and the charcoal fire in the oven smells faintly; Adding bamboo to love the good color, it is stored in winter There are many sweet beans in the boudoir.

This is the Huzhou in my impression, not only the rich people, beautiful scenery, and harmonious people. There is also a faint fragrance of tea. Smoked bean tea is not only a tea drink, but also a symbol, a symbol of us Huzhou people. I believe that my hometown, Huzhou, will become better and better with everyone's efforts and struggles. Although smoked bean tea is just a small cup of tea, it carries the dream of most Huzhou people. When Huzhou people who are drifting outside see this cup of tea, they will show infinite melancholy. This may be the reason why everyone likes to drink it. Bar! In my beautiful memories, there are many beautiful scenery, sincere friends, unforgettable hometown, and cups of warm smoked bean tea...
