Long zui da tong Hu "tea soup"

In the food stalls in a few places, such as Food Street and Ancient Culture Street in Da Nan City, it is often seen that "tea soup" is sold with a strange big copper pot with a long mouth. This is a very eye-catching scene with folk characteristics. A long pole is carrying a cover composed of two prismatic boards with red spikes, and the word "tea soup" is written on the boards respectively. On the platform next to the cover, there is a special copper pot with a dragon mouth. It weighs 20 kilograms and can hold more than 30 kilograms of water. When the water is boiled to 150 degrees by charcoal fire in the pot, the tea soup can be cooked. The small whistle "Woo-hoo" sounded next to the lid of the copper pot. The master who made tea soup held the bowl in one hand and lifted the copper pot in the other. The spout of the pot tilted downward, and a stream of boiling water rushed into the bowl. In an instant, the tea soup was filled with water. This large copper pot with a long mouth not only has the above practical functions, but also is a very beautiful handicraft. The upper and lower parts of the copper pot have a circle of copper decorative patterns. A bronze dragon is inlaid above the spout and handle. Some copper pots are decorated with a big faucet, and the pot handle is made up of a dragon. Dragon beard, dragon claw and Long Lin can be clearly distinguished. There are two red velvet balls at the tips of the two dragon whiskers sticking out of the dragon's mouth, which vibrate with the action of the master who pours the pot and flushes water. Before people tasted the delicious "tea soup", they were already intoxicated by the wonderful performance of this strange big copper pot with a long mouth and a tea maker. The main ingredients of the tea soup are glutinous rice noodles (sorghum rice noodles) and millet noodles, and the seasonings are brown sugar, white sugar, moss, red silk, sesame seeds, walnut kernels, assorted preserved fruits, raisins, Beijing cake strips and pine nuts. Wash the glutinous rice noodles into a thin paste with boiling water, and add various seasonings to serve. It tastes delicious, sweet and smooth.
