There are many delicious snacks in Tianjin, and eating the same thing every day may not be able to get out of the same sample for a month. Today I would like to introduce you to a very famous snack, tea soup.
Tianjin's tea soup originated in the Ming Dynasty, when the emperor Zhu Di set up Guanglu Temple as a place of ceremonial worship, in order to pray for the blessing of Jiangshan Sheji, but also for the prosperity of the country, they developed a porridge based on millet (millet), named tea soup. At the time of worship, give a bowl to each of the hundred officials of the civil and military forces, and fear the heavens. Sometimes rumors are evidenced by: "Hanlin Hospital article, too hospital prescription." Kwangrokuji tea soup, Arsenal Sword Gun. "Because it is served in a tea bowl and eaten with hot water, it is called tea soup.
Now there are many kinds of tea soup, the most traditional taste is to use millet noodles as a base, and then put on osmanthus flowers, dried fruits, sugar and other accessories, and then use the boiling dragon's mouth large copper pot water to rinse it, you can eat. Of course, the tea soup is also very technical, first put a little hot water to stir the millet noodles evenly, there is no gnocchi in it, so that it can be rinsed with boiling water. It is soft and sticky, sweet and delicious.
So where can you drink tea soup in Tianjin? In fact, there are very few stalls selling tea soup now, and more people appreciate and taste folk culture. Now in Tianjin Ancient Culture Street Square there is "Jinmen Yang's Tea Soup" his family is more famous, tourists and locals from other places will drink a bowl of hot tea soup when they go to Ancient Culture Street.
It turns out that I have also seen a three-wheeled uncle walking around the northwest corner, he is selling tea soup, who wants to drink tea soup and wave his hand or shout at the uncle, he will stop for you to rush a bowl, his signature is Hu Ji tea soup, often set up a stall at the entrance of the Great Compassion Temple. There was an advertisement in the loudspeaker on his car, which read, "There is no better person in Tianjin than me, and there is no one in China who is better than me" Obviously, the advertisement of this uncle is somewhat exaggerated, but this also reflects the praise of Tianjin people!
Tianjin's Nanshi Food Street also has a, the sign is "Ma Ji Tea Soup", "a century-old shop, a must in Jinmen" It seems that this Ma Ji tea soup is also old, I have also tasted a bowl, the taste of his home is not bad, characterized by the dragon's mouth large copper pot, and the action of the master of the tea soup when flushing water, no few years of kung fu really will not be used.
There is also a family in Gulou East Street, not far from the ancient culture street, this is called "Zhang Ji Tea Soup" his dragon mouth large copper pot is not large, it should not be an ancestral business, there is something to sit down and drink. It's just that it's not clear whether this one still exists. Because I haven't been to Gulou East Street for some days.
I introduced you to 4 places that sell tea soup, other places may also sell, but there are really not many, now people drink tea soup is to drink a memory, picture a fresh. It is more about understanding this folk culture, and it is estimated that it may not be sold in a few years.
I recommend you to taste the Jinmen Yang family in the ancient culture street, first of all, everyone comes to Tianjin to travel, the ancient culture street is a must-go place, and the taste of tea soup is similar, and the taste of his home is really good, and in order to cater to the taste of young people over the years, many new varieties have been developed, but I personally am still the most traditional and the best taste of millet noodles.
Well, today I will introduce you to here, if you have any Tianjin cuisine you want to know can give me a message or private message, I will definitely answer for you.
