When you’re bored, it’s interesting to look closely at the old and popular "Ice Room" menu, many of which are quite interesting.
"Toshi" is the translation of "toast" in Shanghai School. It feels that the Cantonese translation is more elegant and domesticated. The Book of Songs has "Jijiduoshi, Wenwang Yining".
[Beef Tea] When we wait for the northerners (the Lingnans see that the people in the south of the Yangtze River are already northerners), we don’t know what to say, but feel vigorous. It is estimated that it is to clarify the "beef soup". It is about the same meaning as Nanyang "meat and bone tea". Guangdong people believe that all kinds of soup have nourishing effects. The tea produced in Wuyi Niulan pit today is called beef tea. Zhenfeng Ma Niu is not the same as Zhenfeng Ma Niu.
After inquiry, we know that this beef tea only uses beef leg meat with ginger and salt to boil into a clear soup, drains the residue, and drinks in a small cup. Suddenly I think of the cloud in Dongpo Zhilin: Tang people fry tea and use ginger and salt. Ancient customs exist in Shu.
Almond cream is also a kind of dessert like "almond tea" and "almond dew". Ancient people used "frost" to praise dessert, Dongpo is poetry: ice plate if amber, what kind of frost beauty.
Mandarin duck tea is a unique drink of Hong Kong Tea Restaurant. It is said that it was founded in Lanfang Garden and is made of 70% Hong Kong milk tea and 30% coffee. Mixing the two can make the drinker enjoy both the aroma of coffee and the smoothness of milk tea. Mandarin ducks are also regarded as the symbol of Hong Kong culture, which is used to describe the blending of Chinese and foreign cultures in Hong Kong.
Later, however, I heard the introduction of the old gourmet. When sugar was more expensive than tea, a few pieces of tea were added to the sugar-laden tea, which was called "Yuanyang Tea", often used as a cover-up when sugar tea was used to entertain distinguished guests. (Other guests only brew sugar-free tea)
Chinese cuisine is extensive and profound.
