Yes, she can make dandelion tea!
Dandelion tea can clear heat and detoxify, strengthen the liver, and even lower cholesterol.
Moreover, this thing is everywhere, all over the mountains and fields.
While frying, she would casually add a tiny bit of spiritual energy, so how could the final tea not taste good?
Of course, this was still inspired by Xu Yi.
After all, what Xu Yi was holding in his hand was a yellow dandelion.
Hmm, I also need to register a TaoTao store to sell things later.
"Xu Yi, your little flowers are so pretty!"
"Have you finished the chores around the house?"
"Not yet. My mom said I've been working very hard and focused lately, and she kept praising me for being so capable."
"It's rest time now. After I rest, I'll have to get busy again."
"Sister Anshu, I'm sorry, I still can't go dig for wild vegetables with you today," Xu Yi said with a guilty look on her face.
"It's okay, just help Mom with the chores. Go for it, Xu Yi, you're the best!"
"Yes, Yi Yi is the best!" Xu Yi grinned again.
After saying goodbye to Xu Yi, Lin Anshu went to dig up dandelions.
Dandelion, also known as "Po Po Ding," is both a wild vegetable and a medicinal herb.
If you're using it to stir-fry tea, it can't be too young or too old.
And now, Lin Anshu has picked just the right amount.
After picking almost a basketful, she went back to start frying the tea.
First, remove the top and bottom of the dandelion stems and leaves, keeping only the middle part.
Then prepare a basin of clean water and wash it thoroughly.
Add another spoonful of salt and soak for half an hour.
This step is mainly to prevent insects from infesting the area and to kill the insect eggs.
After soaking, take them out and drain the water.
It is important to note that during this process, the dandelions that have been scooped out need to be allowed to dry naturally; they should not be squeezed forcefully.
Because we need to preserve the integrity of the dandelion.
After you're done, cut it into pieces about three centimeters long, and then you can start stir-frying it.
Heat the pot over medium-low heat, then add the chopped dandelion leaves directly without adding anything else. Stir-fry over medium-high heat, turning constantly to dehydrate the leaves quickly.
Once the leaves have withered and wilted, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking.
As the blades change, so does the firepower.
When using the lowest heat setting, you should stir-fry the food with clean hands.
Once the tea leaves have taken shape and dried, and a fragrant aroma fills the air, you can turn off the heat.
It should look something like this after frying.
Next, let it cool and store it.
Because it was her first time cooking, Lin Anshu's movements were a little clumsy.
But during the process, she didn't forget to add a trace of spiritual power.
After the tea was ready, she took out a cup, pinched a little, and then poured water into it to taste.
As hot water is poured in, the leaves gradually unfurl and unfold, releasing a faint, refreshing fragrance.
Along with that, its color turned green, and the tea soup became golden yellow.
The book says that dandelion tea has a slightly bitter taste, followed by a sweet aftertaste, but when she drank the one she had roasted, she didn't taste any bitterness at all.
Finding the taste quite good, Lin Anshu brewed another cup and took it to Grandma Lin to try.
Grandma Lin said she liked it too, and finished the cup of tea in no time.
After Mr. and Mrs. Lin returned, Lin Anshu quickly handed them two cups of tea.
"Dad, Mom, you've worked hard. Here, have some tea~"
"Such eagerness must be suspicious. Tell me, what do you want me to do for you tomorrow?" Lin's mother glanced at her.
"Mom, what are you thinking? Is your daughter that kind of person?"
"I was just concerned because I saw you guys were working so hard."
"Here, let me try some." Mr. Lin took it, took a sip, and then exclaimed in surprise.
"This tea tastes great. It's no wonder my daughter poured it; it's delicious."
After saying that, Mr. Lin gulped down the cup of tea.
"Is it really that delicious?"
Seeing that Mr. Lin, who doesn't usually like drinking tea, downed the whole cup in one go, Mrs. Lin, who was holding her teacup, also tried taking a sip.
I must say, it tastes really good.
"Do we have such good tea at home?" Lin's mother asked in surprise.
"Didn't you realize? This is dandelion tea that I made myself!"
"How is it? The taste is alright, isn't it?"
"With this taste and this quality, do you think it's suitable for sale?" Lin Anshu asked three questions in a row.
"Yes, definitely." Mr. Lin said with certainty.
Although he doesn't particularly love tea, he's not someone who's never had it before.
In his memory, he had never drunk a better tea than the one he had today.
If he likes something so good, there's no reason why others shouldn't.
"So what price do you plan to sell it for? And where do you plan to sell it?" Lin's mother asked.
"Of course it's on TaoTao website, I've already registered the online store."
"As for the price, selling it for 366 yuan per jin isn't unreasonable, is it?"
"puff……"
If Lin's mother hadn't just taken that last sip of tea, she would have almost spat it all over Lin Anshu's face.
"Well, An'an, isn't this price a bit too high?" Even Lin's father looked hesitant.
"Wait a minute." Lin's mother put down her teacup, took out her phone, and started searching on Baidu.
Soon, she presented the prices she had found to Lin Anshu.
"Look, this stuff only costs 13.9 yuan per kilogram online."
Are you sure anyone would buy it at 366 yuan per jin?
"Of course it is! Can anything sold online taste as good as what I make?" Lin Anshu said with a self-righteous expression.
