关于煮茶,我总觉得该与小时候在外婆家吃的胡椒茶煮法无甚区别。无非是一砂罐水一把茶一撮胡椒,灶膛里柴火烧旺酽酽地熬了,等茶味浓了胡椒味辛辣了,再搁一小匙盐,胡椒茶就煮好了。那时,每年正月,夜里在外婆家的灶火旁坐着,就着红活的火,喝着胡椒茶,吃着米做的螃蟹脚和根子,就是我们一年的盼望。像患了一种叫“茶慌”的病,得正月里的胡椒茶来治。冬夜里几碗胡椒茶喝下去,汗珠也沁出来了,暖暖的,浑身通泰。后来,外婆过世后便好多年不喝了。 About brewing tea, I always feel that it should be no different from the method of cooking pepper tea which was eaten by my grandmother when I was little. Is nothing more than a teaspoon of water, a handful of peppers in the hearth, the hearths of fire in the hearths boil for a long time, so the tea tastes spicy and the peppers are spicy. At that time, every year of the first lunar month, at night sitting next to the grandmother’s hearth fire, with red fire, drinking pepper tea, eating rice crab legs and roots, is our year’s hope. Like suffering from a “tea panic” disease, the first month of pepper tea to rule. How many bowls of pepper tea drink in the winter night, perspiration Qin also came out, warm, whole body and Thailand. Later, after having passed away, my grandmother would not drink for many years.
