Barley tea is a traditional, cool and rich fragrant tea widely circulated in China, Japan, South Korea, etc. It is also called wheat tea and wheat soup. It is a beverage made by baking barley and grinding it into powder. It retains some original nutrients of barley, such as carbohydrates, plant proteins, B vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids and so on. It has the effects of relieving summer heat, quenching thirst, helping digestion, losing weight and strengthening blood vessels. It is a new beverage with unique taste and health care function. China wheat tea is not a rare thing in China, especially in the north. Northern China is rich in barley, and wheat tea is made from local materials. In the eastern agricultural area of Qinghai, barley is the main crop in the field. So take local materials, grind the fried wheat grains into wheat residue and cook them into wheat tea. Tea soup is dark brown and smells like coffee tea. There is a saying in Japan that in the Taoshan culture era of 1587, Toyotomi Hideyoshi with national unity was completed, and the Japanese tea ceremony was also completed, and the famous Kitano tea ceremony was founded in history. At that time, most participants provided tea, and some of them used fried rice and wheat instead. Thus, wheat tea, brown rice tea and other cereals fried tea were born. The Korean peninsula in South Korea belongs to farming civilization and mountainous areas in history. Geographically, because the climate and local conditions are suitable for the development of agriculture, coarse cereals were planted as early as the Neolithic Age, and then rice was popularized. Since then, cereals have become the center of Korean food culture and gradually developed. It is precisely because of Korea's geographical location and climate that its diet has very distinctive characteristics. Although the cooking is mainly barbecue, its taste is very popular among Koreans. In order to achieve the purpose of appetizing and relieving boredom, barley tea, which has a wide range of materials and a simple and unique flavor, occupies the position of beverage on the Korean cooking table. Development With the continuous improvement of living standards, people drink tea from the original single tea, diverse and complex drinks, from the original thirst quenching to the characteristics of health care and beauty, from the demand for good taste and good drink to the combination of bright color, beautiful color and ornamental, people's requirements for tea are escalating step by step.

Professor Chang of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine said that highland barley is sweet in taste and flat in nature, and has the effects of eliminating flatulence, calming stomach and quenching thirst, benefiting qi, strengthening blood vessels, strengthening five internal organs and dissolving grains. Self-made raw material formula: 7 kg barley powder, 3 kg tea powder, natural spice 100 g (note that the original text did not provide any spice), 50 g beef bone powder. Production method 1. Cleaning and stone removal: it is best to clean the barley first to remove impurities, stones, sand, etc. And then did it or did it. 2. Baking: Bake in the factory with a baking machine, and stir-fry in a clean pot with a small fire at home until the skin is brown. When baking, it must be uniform and the strength should be appropriate, so that the water in the wheat grains can be evaporated evenly and gradually, and it can be crushed. 3. Grinding: The grinding mentioned here includes the grinding of barley seeds and tea leaves. In other words, wheat grains and tea leaves should be gradually pressed into powder by stone mortar or other methods. 4. Sieving: Use a coarse sieve to remove the epidermis from the barley flour. 5. Mixing: Barley powder and tea powder are mixed in proportion. Please note that pesticide residues in barley and tea must be limited to the minimum allowable range. 6. Ingredients: Generally, natural spices and bovine bone powder are added to the mixed powder of wheat and tea. Cattle bones should be crushed with a hammer (factory hammer crusher) and sieved into 300 ~ 500 mesh powder before they can be mixed and used. 7. Re-screening: It is best to screen it again with a fine screen to ensure the quality when drinking. 8. Packaging: sieving and packaging to obtain the finished product. Precautions Wash the barley and put it in a sieve to dry. Spread a layer of gauze on it to prevent dust when it is dry. Dry it and you can blow it up. Pay attention to the heat when frying, and don't change the heat from the cauldron to the low heat. There must be a small fire. The fire is too big, the skin outside is burnt, and the inside is not ready yet. There are two kinds of quality identification: light frying and heavy frying. Stir-fried tastes light and refreshing, while re-fried tastes mellow. Chinese people have a partial taste and the market is repeatedly speculating, which is the mainstream of the market. Drinking method: 1, about 2 liters of water, boil, put a bag of barley tea and cook for about 5- 10 minutes. 2. Friends who don't want to cook can directly use boiling water 15 minutes. It tastes better when cooked. You can use bubbles in the office. If you don't want to drink it hot in summer, it will be a good summer drink to put the brewed barley tea in the freezer.

Professor Hideo Sato of Shizuoka University in Japan recently announced that after research, it was found that wheat tea contains specific substances that inhibit cancer and has a certain preventive effect on cancer. The specific anticancer substances contained in barley tea are p-coumaric acid contained in leguminous plants and quercetin widely used in medicine. Quercetin is mainly used as an antihypertensive drug. Scientists believe that some bad living habits, such as smoking, overeating and overwork, may increase active oxygen in the body and cause diseases including cancer. Active oxygen exists in human body, and one electron in its molecule is in a discrete unstable state. " The "restless" reactive oxygen species will take away electrons such as fatty acids existing in the cell membrane, leading to a series of rapid chain reactions and causing many diseases. The antioxidant effect of wheat tea can remove excess active oxygen. People used to drink wheat tea mainly to prevent cancer, stroke, myocardial infarction, diabetes and so on. But it has not been found that any substance in wheat tea can eliminate active oxygen before. Beauty function 1, whole body whitening.

Besides removing fire and relieving summer heat, it can also protect the stomach, strengthen the spleen, induce diuresis, help digestion and treat coronary heart disease. Most importantly, barley is a healthy coarse grain. Therefore, the elderly with weak constitution should always eat some barley food when choosing summer food. Eat highland barley at home, preferably by cooking porridge or brewing barley tea. Barley porridge and barley tea have good thirst-quenching and diuretic effects, which can help the elderly replenish water in the body in summer, accelerate the metabolism of water in the body, ensure the balance of water and electrolyte, and thus reduce heatstroke.

Lactation malt is a commonly used product in clinic, which is made from mature fruits of Gramineae and barley by germination and drying. For lactating women, there are two views on how to drink. Some people think that raw malt has prolactin effect, while fried malt has prolactin effect. Others think that both raw malt and fried malt have prolactin effect, and the key lies in quantity. "China Pharmacopoeia" records "raw malt: strengthening the spleen and promoting lactation in the stomach, which is used for spleen deficiency, eating less and milk obstruction; Stir-fried malt: promoting qi circulation, clearing food and returning milk are used for indigestion and weaning women; Burnt malt: digestion and stagnation, used for irregular food intake and abdominal pain. "After years of research, there are three views on the lactation and lactation of malt: raw malt can promote lactation, and" raw "means" germinating ",and the dosage is below 30g; Stir-fried malt can be used to return milk, and "stir-frying" means "stir-frying". When the dosage is above 60g, both raw malt and fried malt can be used for milk recovery alone, and the dosage is 60 ~ 120g. Raw malt and fried malt are mixed to recover milk, 60g each. Modern pharmacological research believes that raw malt contains ergotamine compounds, which can inhibit the secretion of prolactin and thus be used for double milk. After frying, ergotamine compounds can be destroyed, which weakens the effect of re-emulsification. Clinically speaking, taking Mai 'an Granule (composed of raw malt and raw hawthorn) leads to weaning of lactating women, which shows that single raw malt has the effect of re-lactation. The etiology and pathogenesis of breast deficiency in clinic are: weakness of qi and blood, which affects milk production; Stagnation of liver qi, unsmooth operation of milk, and blocked milk. The former should be mainly drugs that tonify qi and blood, supplemented by prolactin drugs, and add raw malt or fried malt as appropriate. Stagnation of liver qi will inevitably affect the transport function of the spleen and stomach, and the spleen will lose its health and the milk will be insufficient. Therefore, raw malt or fried malt is used to restore the function of spleen and stomach to normal, the liver qi is full, and the milk is self-generated. There is a ten-day jargon in Chinese medicine called "the secret of Chinese medicine is dosage". Different doctors prescribe the same Chinese medicine, but the curative effect is different. In addition to "because of people, time and place", the key to the reason lies in quantity. The amount of hematoxylin is small, but the amount of hematoxylin is large. Carthamus tinctorius nourishes qi and blood in a small amount, and promotes blood circulation to remove blood stasis in a large amount. It can be seen that the dosage and curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine are different, and even have the opposite effect. To sum up, whether malt has the function of returning milk or lactagogue is not whether it is fried or not, but the difference in quantity. That is, a small dose of digestion and stagnation, liver depression and milk (with compound); A large dose has strong dispersing power, can dissipate qi and blood, and can restore milk (single medicine). Barley tea is refined by frying and charcoal roasting, and belongs to fried malt in pharmacology. Appropriate dosage can meet the needs of different people, that is, 4-6 packs of milk (large dosage) and 1-2 packs of milk (small dosage) every day. In Japan and South Korea, with the pursuit of health and bodybuilding, the consumption of sugary drinks is declining, and wheat tea has gradually become the first choice for healthy people. On the other hand, modern people are increasingly pursuing the nutritional value of food. Barley tea is made by frying barley and boiling it. It has a strong wheat flavor. Drinking it can not only stimulate appetite, but also help digestion and lose weight. So barley tea began to be favored. Barley tea is a traditional refreshing drink deeply loved by people.

Just brew with hot water for 2-3 minutes before eating, and you can extract rich fragrant tea. White-collar workers often drink barley tea, which can improve gastrointestinal function and lose weight. Barley tea has the effects of cooling and detoxicating, invigorating spleen and reducing weight, clearing away heat and relieving summer-heat, removing fishy smell and tiredness, and helping digestion, which can eliminate the feeling of chest tightness and abdominal distension and enhance gastric motility. White-collar workers who sit in front of computers for a long time may wish to drink several cups of barley tea every day. After a period of time, you will find that not only your gastrointestinal function has improved, but constipation has gradually disappeared, and the whole person is refreshed.
