Brief introduction:

Wheat tea is not a rare thing in China, especially in the north, which is rich in barley, and wheat tea is born from local materials. In the eastern agricultural area of Qinghai, barley is the main crop in the field. Therefore, using local materials, stir-fried barley grains are crushed into wheat dregs and then boiled into wheat tea. The tea soup is dark brown and smells like coffee tea.

It is said that in 1587, during the Taoshan cultural era in Japan, the Toyotomi Hideyoshi was unified, and the Japanese tea ceremony was also completed, and the famous Kitano Tea Ceremony was founded in history. At that time, most of the participants offered tea, and some of them used parched rice and wheat instead. Therefore, wheat tea, brown rice tea and other teas fried with grain were born.

historically, the Korean peninsula belongs to farming civilization and is mountainous. Geographically, because the climate and local conditions are suitable for the development of agriculture, the cultivation of miscellaneous grains began as early as the Neolithic Age, and then the cultivation of rice was popularized.

Since then, cereals have become the center of Korean food culture and gradually developed. It is precisely because of Korea's geographical location and climate that its diet has very distinctive characteristics. Although cooking is mainly barbecue, its taste is very popular among Koreans. In order to achieve the purpose of appetizing and greasy, barley tea with simple and unique flavor, which is widely made from materials, has occupied the beverage position on the Korean cooking table.
