Tobacco tea is a local specialty of Pingjiang in tea. Villagers modestly call it plain tea and plain rice. Tobacco tea is a real coarse tea. As the name suggests, smoke tea is tea made by smoking. Smoke tea is still handmade by thousands of families. It has thin stems and thick leaves. It looks black and emits a pungent smoke smell. The soup is black, yellow and thick. In my opinion, tobacco and tea are similar to bacon in the countryside. However, in my hometown, villagers would rather have no bacon in their rice bowl for a month than smoke-free tea in their tea bowl for a day. If you are used to eating and drinking other green tea, black tea and oolong tea, even the so-called expensive famous tea still doesn't quench your thirst and satisfy your appetite. A bowl of smoke and tea is as strong as wine, which is what villagers like. A strong smell of smoke.
Before and after the Qingming Festival, the spring rain is falling, the spring sun is bright, the azaleas are blooming all over the mountain, the branches of the tea garden are tender, and the leaves spit yellow buds. It is a good time to open the garden to pick tea. On a fine day, bees fly and butterflies dance, birds sing and the wind is gentle. A bamboo basket picks the golden branches and jade leaves home with fragrance and spreads them on the drying mat in the sun terrace in front of the house. The tea farmer cleans the five big pots of cattle on the stove with hands and feet, burns a hot stove, pours down the fresh tea, stir fry and kill the green. The light smoke is steaming, the fragrance is diffuse, and the mountain like tea leaves piled up in the big pot are soon ripe and wilting. Take it out and spread it on the drying mat for a little cooling, wash your hands, step on the drying mat, winnow the green and ripe tea, roll it while taking advantage of the waste heat, and squeeze out the green and astringent juice. Cool again, return to the pot for heating, and then knead it. Cover it with a white cotton towel and let it ferment. At this time, there is only the last process of drying and smoking, commonly known as kang tea.
The tea Kang of kang tea is a special appliance with a sharp top and a round bottom, just like an inverted tripod pot. The Niuwu pot on the wind stove was lifted and removed, and the tea Kang was just placed. Spread the kneaded tea evenly on the baking pad of the base and cover the hat shaped upper cover. The fire in the stove is very particular about the temperature. Light a handful of thatched wood as a fire starter and ignite several pine branches. There are miscellaneous wood sticks with thick and thin wrists on the pine branches. When the miscellaneous wood sticks are burning, they will be covered with camellia seed shell and rice bran head on the camellia seed shell, so that there will be no open fire and only hot smoke in the stove. People who are fastidious will bury some excavated from the mountains in the rice bran.
After the tea is collected, scald it with boiling water, pick it up, dry the water with sunlight, and then smoke it with special ancient methods until the tea is dry. It's best to use it to eliminate stagnation after eating. However, tobacco tea belongs to mature tea, and the content of monadic acid in tea is high, so it has the functions of eliminating stagnation, generating saliva and cleaning intestines and stomach. It's suitable for drinking after eating. Its nature is mild, especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly people and pregnant women.
According to a study of more than 200 women who want to get pregnant, a component in tobacco and tea can help the pregnant egg through the crucial first few weeks after conception. Although scientists cannot explain why, they are convinced that drinking tobacco and tea can promote the effective combination of sperm and eggs.
