Longjing shrimp is a famous Hangzhou dish with the most Hangzhou characteristics. The refreshing and green Longjing green tea is made with the fresh West Lake shrimps. The tender and fresh are soaked in the unique fragrance of the tea. The unique taste always makes the aftertaste mellow.
Historical allusion: One day, Qianlong paid a private visit to a tea farm in Hangzhou. He drank a cup of Longjing new tea. He was deeply fragrant and delicious. He grabbed some tea leaves and left. Later, I had a meal in a restaurant in the city and asked the shop assistant to make tea with this. The shop clerk saw a corner of Qianlong's dragon robe exposed and hurriedly told the shop owner. The shopkeeper was cooking shrimps, and in a panic, he sprinkled the tea leaves in the shop assistant's hands as chopped green onions into the pot. Unexpectedly, the taste of this tea shrimp is elegant and unique, and Qianlong nodded and praised it. Since then, this dish has become a famous dish in Hangzhou and spread to Ling. "
