Question 7: Someone told me what afternoon tea means. In a narrow sense, afternoon tea is one of the catering methods. Now it refers to the famous English afternoon tea in Victorian England. Afternoon tea is usually enjoyed from 3 pm to 5 pm. Afternoon tea is a product of the British17th century, which has continued to this day and is gradually becoming a leisure habit of modern people. While drinking tea with western cakes, watching the hurried footsteps on the street in the afternoon, or sitting quietly alone, or chatting with one or two friends, it is inevitable to add a little warmth to the dream, which is quite derived from the true meaning of afternoon tea in the distant Victorian era.
As early as Victorian England, afternoon tea was not only an elegant eating habit of British upper class. Due to the development of British industry in Victorian era, industrial workers working in factories became the main force of the labor force. The weather in Britain is wet, cold and windy, especially in winter. The nights are long and the days are short, and the time between lunch and dinner is long. It is often dark, but before dinner, the workers are cold and hungry. You need some snacks to satisfy your hunger. So, at that time, factories in Britain all had short tea breaks. Workers use tea time to go home, drink some hot tea, eat some pasta made by their mothers or wives, and then go back to work in the factory.
Question 8: What about English afternoon tea? 1. The most orthodox time for afternoon tea is 4 pm (commonly known as afternoon tea).
In Victorian times, men wore tuxedos and women wore robes. At the formal afternoon tea party in Buckingham Palace every year, male guests still wear tuxedos, high hats and umbrellas. Women must wear hats when they wear daytime clothes.
Usually, the hostess wears formal clothes to serve the guests herself. You must ask the waiter for help to show your respect for the guests.
Generally speaking, the characteristic teas of afternoon tea are Qimen black tea, Darjeeling black tea, earl grey black tea and Ceylon black tea. If you drink milk tea, you should add milk first and then tea.
The snacks of orthodox English afternoon tea are packed in three layers of snack porcelain plates, one layer is a sandwich, the other layer is a traditional English snack scone, and there are cakes and fruit towers. Eat from the bottom up. As for Scone's way of eating, it is to spread jam first, then cream, take one bite and then wipe the next.
6, dessert eating etiquette. From light to heavy, from salty to sweet. The order of refreshments should follow the law that tastes are light and heavy, salty and sweet. Try a salty sandwich first, let the taste buds taste the real taste of food slowly, and then sip a few mouthfuls of fragrant black tea. Then English muffins are coated with jam or cream to let a little sweetness slowly spread out in the mouth. Finally, the sweet and thick fruit tower will lead you to taste the most delicious afternoon tea yourself.
7. Strict attitude. This is a gentleman's etiquette. Most importantly, at that time, because tea was almost imported from China, the British people had unparalleled love and respect for tea products, so it was inevitable to show a rigorous attitude in the process of drinking afternoon tea. Even, in order to prevent tea from being stolen, there are locked tea cabinets. Whenever it's tea time, entrust the maid to take the key and open the cupboard to get tea.
8. Enjoy the exquisite tea set. Victoria's afternoon tea is a comprehensive art, simple but not shabby, gorgeous but not vulgar ... Although tea time and food (referring to pure English snacks) are the most important parts of orthodox English afternoon tea, afternoon tea is a fly in the ointment without good tea, porcelain, music and even a good mood.
