Wuling tea [edit this paragraph] Wuling tea has a long history in Dongting Lake area. According to legend, more than 2,000 years ago, Ma Yuan led an army south and was stationed in Sima Cuo City (now Toumaoling Township, Dingcheng District). There was a plague in the barracks, and a fairy prescribed a prescription. The prescription says, "Put sesame seeds, mung beans, ginger, tea leaves and fried rice in a rolling bowl, mash them with catalpa and Jiang Mu, and brew them with boiling water." After taking it, the disease recovered and was introduced to the people.

Before the girl gets married, all the neighbors who received the wedding candy should also cook a bowl of fragrant tea for the bride to eat. In addition, the patients at home should also cook some for the neighbors who have taken care of the patients to show their gratitude.

Lu Yu, a native of the Tang Dynasty, has a history of 1000 years. The tea porridge he said is to grind tea leaves into fine rice, add rice flour, oil and salt to make tea balls or tea cakes, mash them when drinking, add some seasonings such as onion, ginger, pepper and cinnamon, and add water to cook a large pot of tea porridge for everyone to eat. This is the initial tea crushing.

Jiexi Leicha has its wonderful legend. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Pan Renmei was ordered by Song Taizong to conquer the Southern Han Dynasty and sent a small team to attack Guangzhou by Jiexi. When we arrived at the river slope, because most of the soldiers were northerners, and the weather was hot and acclimatized, the soldiers vomited and diarrhea one after another, and their condition was serious. The generals were in a hurry, but they were helpless. Hepo heard the news, taught the secret recipe, and used Sansheng soup to drink tea to cure the disease. As needed, she asked some people to pick tea, some to dig ginger, some to grind rice, and some to find bowls and sticks. With all these things done, we can make a lot of tea soon. Because of the bowl, it is called "broken tea". He Po said to give each sick soldier a big bowl of boiling water, and then cover your head to sleep. When I woke up the next day, everyone was sweating and sneezing. Strange to say, all the patients have recovered. Later, some southern conquerors stayed and settled in the fields, so smashing tea spread not only in Jiexi County, but also in places where Hakka people live in northern Guangdong, western Hunan and southern Jiangxi, which became a major feature of Hakka food folklore.
