Create a classic and unforgettable Beginning of Summer Egg = Spiced Tea Egg

Time flies like water, and summer begins in a blink of an eye. Spring in the South is very short, just like the fleeting years of youth. Every year, it seems to flash from winter to summer, skipping the most beautiful and comfortable spring. It's hard to react, and it jumps to the furnace-like hot summer. Speaking of the Beginning of Summer; the Beginning of Summer in 2015 is May 6, which is the eighteenth day of March (small) in the lunar calendar of 2015. It marks the end of spring and the beginning of summer. This day was called the end of spring in ancient times. These simple and clear words herald the end of spring. Traditionally, people often regard the Beginning of Summer as an important solar term when the temperature rises significantly, the heat is approaching, thunderstorms increase, and crops enter the peak growth season. The most classic food during the Beginning of Summer is the Beginning of Summer egg. The ancients believed that eggs are round and smooth, symbolizing the perfection of life. Eating eggs at the beginning of summer can pray for peace in summer and withstand the test of summer. The Beginning of Summer usually falls in the fourth month of the lunar calendar. Eggs in April are as cheap as vegetables. People put the eggs in leftover Qijia tea and boil them to become tea eggs. As the saying goes, eggs are hung on the breasts at the beginning of summer, and children will not survive the summer. It means that as the temperature rises and hot summer approaches, children are particularly prone to physical fatigue, weakness of limbs, loss of appetite, and gradual weight loss. This is the symptom of summer heat. It is said that as long as you eat eggs on the day of the Beginning of Summer, you can prevent this disease. Of course, no one knows who this statement came from, but after being passed down from generation to generation, it eventually became a custom at the beginning of summer, and eating eggs is good for the heart, which coincides with the theory of traditional Chinese medicine that the beginning of summer nourishes the heart.

Milk tea

Alternative milk tea. There seem to be two ways to make milk tea. First, brew the tea leaves with water and mix them with milk; second, heat the milk and add the tea leaves to allow the tea aroma to penetrate into the milk. None of it takes time. I suddenly had a whim, is there any milk tea available instantly? When milk and tea collide at high speed under the knife head, will they quickly blend together? Indeed, when the rapid rotation stopped, the milk had the aroma of tea. However, this milk tea is not the usual light yellowish brown, but a light gray. Maybe it's because of the extremely fine powdered tea leaves? When everything came to stillness, they gradually deposited a dark layer at the bottom of the cup. Also considered milk tea. . . .

Tea Chicken Legs

Tried it today. After processing the chicken legs, cook them in tea soup, and then soak them in new tea soup. The chicken will be full of tea aroma. The fragrance chosen is Tieguanyin, which is a semi-fermented tea that has both the fragrance of green tea and the richness of black tea. It's really a good choice to eat a few pieces of cold, tea-flavored chicken in summer.

I learned this recipe from the gourmet expert Fen Yu Sticky Candy. Because there was no salt baking powder, I only used salt and pepper.

Tieguanyin tea stewed eggs

Ever since I became sensible, my mother would feed me eggs stewed with tea every time I coughed, and I rarely took medicine. At first, I didn’t believe that coughing and tea were not related, and that it could cure coughs. Now I am also a mother, and every time my children get angry or cough, I stew this for them to drink. It is very effective and the method is very simple. This recipe has been with me since I was sensible until now. I share it here with all my friends. I hope it can help friends in need!
