Papa's strawberry tea
Since his father retired, he has often stayed in his hometown, rummaged through his fields, planted some vegetables, and cooked whatever he wanted in a different way!

I didn't care about my field because of my work. My uncles planted them to prevent the land from being abandoned. Now that I have leisure, I go back and forth in the village and really become a member of the village.

To catch up with today's society, good policies are good. Poverty alleviation work has reached our Tieshi Village and Damao Village, and now it has been merged into Tieshi Village. The villagers are very happy.

Originally, I only relied on the mountain to eat, and I was self-sufficient and hardworking to get rich. I have always been in a state of not having enough to eat and not being hungry. Want to get rich, used to grow tobacco leaves, and it was a fire for a while. Households have indeed increased their income. Some families became rich and improved their living conditions, built small buildings and drove cars.

However, a large number of villagers still rely on their own plots to grow some corn and soybeans, raise some chickens and ducks, and sell small money to support their families.

Poverty has always been the status quo in the village. Nature is also the status quo in the village. Green is the status quo that has always existed in the village.

The poverty alleviation team started the project of "planting strawberry tea" for Tieshi village, and the village was happy again!

The villagers all went to the village branch to receive the raspberry tea seedlings and special fertilizer, and dad also got his share.

Dad set aside one or two acres of open space and planted all raspberry tea seedlings. In those days, my father went back to his hometown to maintain strawberry tea in March and May, and he planted it with joy. If it withers, replant it.

After all, strawberry tea is good to feed, takes root and sprouts in poor hometown, and brings fresh vitality to the villagers!

After planting raspberry tea seedlings for seven or eight months, you can start picking them. The poverty alleviation team came to the village branch to explain the technology of picking and frying strawberry tea for the villagers. The studious villagers gathered in the village branch, packed up, listened carefully and asked questions modestly. They love learning, and they work hard!

Picking strawberry tea is exquisite, unlike picking black tea and green tea, only picking leaves and buds. Strawberry tea is a low tree with new branches growing like vines and spreading around. Picking strawberry tea is to pinch the twigs of vines and choose twigs about five centimeters. Take it off and put it in a basket, just like a twig, tender and green.

Dad always picks strawberry tea early, and the mist of Tieshi River lingers in the mountains, lining the opposite cliff. Picking tea is also a pleasure. The strawberry tea my father picked from the mountain is clean without any dust. Will get some dew, pour it into the dustpan to dry the water, so you can fry strawberry tea.

Stir-fried strawberry tea is like stir-frying The firewood is lit, the stove is cleaned, and the tender strips of hay and strawberry tea are poured into the pot and kept stirring.

The miracle is here!

The green leaves gradually turned silver, and the green strawberry tea suddenly seemed to be covered with a layer of silvery white berries. Cans and shovels are covered with a layer of white, like berries, but not berries. Maybe strawberry tea is named after this!

Stir-fry to a certain degree of heat, quickly pour the fried strawberry tea into a clean basin and start rubbing it by hand. This process is to make the juice of strawberry tea penetrate deeper until every cell. Strawberry tea is whiter and whiter, and the hands are covered with white berries, just like wearing white gloves.

Next, spread the kneaded strawberry tea in a dustpan and cover it with a clean cloth. It's called sweating. I think this is to make the juice of strawberry tea penetrate deeper!

Then the process of "frying-kneading-sweating" is repeated three times, and then it can be spread out and spread on dustpan and screen ... tear the tea leaves that have been rolled into balls as white as berries and spread them out to dry.

After drying, you can put it in a bag. Through the bag, you can smell a faint fragrance, refreshing!

The poverty alleviation team invested in the "strawberry tea planting base" project for the villagers, and also considered the recycling after planting, specially set up the recycling and picking of fresh strawberry tea, and then made it into strawberry tea for sale. Let the people have no worries and really get rich for the people!

Speaking of strawberry tea, what do you know about strawberry tea?

First, introduce the ingredients of strawberry tea.

Strawberry tea is a kind of vine, which contains a natural plant essence. Its effective components are mainly flavonoids, containing crude protein 12.8 ~ 13.8. The average content of flavonoids is ≥6%, and the highest detected content is 9.37%, which is the highest content of flavonoids in all plants found at present, so it is called "the king of flavonoids" (flavonoids ~ ~ is praised as "the king of flavonoids" by the medical community. It is rich in 17 amino acids and 14 trace elements such as potassium, calcium, iron, zinc and selenium, and has rich nutrition and pharmacological effects.

Second, the benefits of drinking strawberry tea.

Dihydroyangmycin, the main component of flavonoids in strawberry tea, has the functions of sterilization and anti-inflammation, clearing away heat and toxic materials, relieving pain and swelling, lowering blood lipid and blood pressure, moistening throat and relieving cough, and improving human immunity. It can excrete harmful acid phthalein and ketone bodies in human body, remove blood stains in blood, regulate blood lipid and blood pressure, soften blood vessels, regulate renal function and strengthen renal tubular reabsorption; Especially used for treating upper respiratory tract infection, acute and chronic pharyngitis, bronchitis, anti-inflammation, sterilization, reducing blood fat, softening blood vessels, inhibiting platelet aggregation, antithrombotic, anti-tumor and regulating gastrointestinal tract diseases, especially nervous system diseases.

Third, scientifically analyze the growing environment of strawberry tea.

On March 2065438+June 12, the special growing environment of Zhangjiajie strawberry tea was scientifically and reasonably explained for the first time in the science and education column "Geographical China" of CCTV 10.

It is reported that the raw material of strawberry tea is a precious plant after the melting of glaciers in the fourth century, and its growth requires three harsh conditions:

First, it grows on the top of the mountain at an altitude of 800- 1500m;

Second: it is foggy all the year round, keep his humidity;

Thirdly, it must be solidified in special seasonal sandstone soil.

The raw material of strawberry tea grows on the top of Xiaofang Mountain in Zhangjiajie, surrounded by the tall Wuling Mountains. At night, dew is rich in water and nutrients in the soil. At the peak of sandstone, the sandy soil of timely sandstone has good air permeability, and the bottom rock can effectively conserve water, which can continuously meet the needs of strawberry tea growth and development. I like sunshine and red sandstone soil. The soil layer is very shallow and there are rocks below.

It can thrive here because the microclimate of the Grand Canyon is rainy and foggy all the year round, which creates a unique growth environment for its growth. Villagers often pick strawberry tea, use a wood fire boiler to remove the water in the tea, and can soak it in water at any time after frying. For thousands of years, local Tujia people have been following this custom, and the special fragrance and magical use of strawberry tea are considered by local people as a free gift from nature.

Fourth, the nickname of strawberry tea since ancient times.

Strawberry tea has many aliases: Lingzhi tea, Shencha, Longteng tea, Longxu tea, Tujia manna, Tengpo tea and Tujia Shencha!

After listening to these names, you will know that strawberry tea is worth choosing!

Love tea, send it to relatives and friends, like health, like pure nature, welcome relatives and friends to book dad's own handmade strawberry tea!
