Morning tea, also known as "sigh tea", every morning tea is an attitude and enjoyment.

"You have to drink tea at leisure", which Cantonese people often say.

The water is boiling and the tea is beautiful. In one cup and two pieces, it contains daily human feelings and transparency.

Cantonese people drink morning tea not only in the morning and at noon, but also in the evening. The same pattern has just changed its name.

Drinking morning tea is not only a matter of state affairs, but also a short "water blowing" for parents. Even many businesses are negotiated in teahouses.

A tea table, a pot of kung fu tea, a few cages of snacks, gathering relatives, meeting friends, talking about business, gossiping and engaging in public relations ... This is a versatile and never-ending place.

A pot of boiling hot tea and a few exquisite snacks constitute the simple and memorable happiness of Cantonese people.

"One cup and two pieces" has thus become a classic symbol of Guangdong morning tea culture.

It's morning tea, not an alarm clock, that wakes Cantonese people.

At six o'clock in the morning, you will find long queues at the gates of restaurants and teahouses.

While saying "morning" to each other, people are thinking in their hearts, whether to flop "the best chicken feet with abalone sauce" or "steamed chicken feet with soy sauce and black bean sauce".

Those who get up earlier than the diners are, of course, the pastry chef in the teahouse.

Mixing dough, scraping skin, stuffing, cooking ...

The original bland materials, through the skillful hands of pastry chefs, have become a series of memorable refreshments.

Before the official start of eating, as is rumored in the Jianghu, Cantonese people will definitely burn the dishes and chopsticks with tea in luxury.

This is not because people are obsessed with cleanliness and stubbornly believe that high-temperature tea has the function of disinfection and sterilization.

More importantly, it is regarded as a ritual handed down from generation to generation.

As the first of the "Four Kings" of dim sum in a teahouse, shrimp dumplings can best represent the morning tea level of a teahouse and test the skills of dim sum chefs.

The thin skin is crystal clear, and the tough dumplings are wrapped with 1-2 complete shrimps.

Morning tea without shrimp dumplings is soulless.

Chicken feet have always been one of the highest-selling snacks in Guangdong tea houses, and you must order morning tea.

Chicken feet are different from ordinary chicken feet in that they are fried first and then steamed. Soft chicken feet are soaked in rich sauce and can be deboned with a gentle sucking, which is popular among the elderly and children.

Small ribs look pale in color, but the meat is tender and smooth, very tasty, and even the taro at the bottom will be eaten up every time.

Dried tangerine peel beef balls, usually added with dried tangerine peel, coriander and horseshoe, have a unique flavor, and the meat is tender and chewy.

Rice rolls is a must-have dish for every household.

To understand Guangdong people's feelings for rice rolls, we can compare Tianjin people's obsession with pancake fruit and Shaanxi people's picky about Chinese hamburger.

Thin-skinned stuffing is thinner, and the sweetness of the stuffing and the fragrance of rice paste are just right.

Morning tea snacks have been passed down to today and have developed thousands of varieties.

In addition to the "Four Heavenly Kings" of morning tea-shrimp dumplings, chicken feet, spareribs and beef balls with dried tangerine peel, there are also "Eight donkey kong" such as dry steamed dumplings, glutinous rice chicken and rice rolls rice congee.

As the bearer of the morning tea industry, it is the standard of every tea house.

The unfamiliar and familiar Cantonese atmosphere, the exquisite attitude towards life from refreshments and the old days of sitting around chatting with friends make people miss it very much.
