Chen Siyuan doesn't care what others think of her.
She asked the servant next to her to prepare a new tea set.
After receiving instructions from the fifth prince of Chen, the servant quickly prepared the necessary items.
Chen Siyuan was not in a hurry.
Once everything is ready, pour boiling water into the teapot to clean the teaware and raise its temperature so that the tea leaves can fully express their color, aroma, and flavor.
After doing all this, wash the cup clean. When using a covered cup, you can directly put the tea in with a tea scoop. Chen Siyuan used her habit from her previous life to add a small amount of tea, which is enough to allow the tea drinker to see the pure aroma.
The ideal tea is neither too strong nor too weak.
After doing all this, use a tea strainer to help place the tea leaves when using the teapot, and then gently tap the teapot with your hand to ensure that the tea leaves are evenly distributed.
Next comes the step of rinsing the tea. Rinsing the tea is relatively simple; the important thing is to control the water temperature. Simply pour water over the tea leaves and then pour it out immediately.
When refilling water, tea leaves have high temperature requirements, so adjustments need to be made according to different tea leaves and water sources.
After finishing these tasks, Chen Siyuan poured water into the lidded cup from a high position to make the tea leaves swirl.
However, this action should not be too fast, lest the tea leaves spill out of the pot.
After pouring in boiling water, the high temperature will cause foam to form in the teapot, which can be gently wiped away with the teapot lid.
When steeping tea leaves in a gaiwan, you can use the lid to move the tea leaves around so that they can disperse more easily.
The last step is much easier. When serving the tea, you can pour it directly into the teacups. She first arranges the teacups neatly and pours the tea in a circular motion to ensure that each teacup is filled evenly. Then, each drop is poured evenly so that the color and flavor concentration of the tea in each cup are equal.
