Met Mr. Ngo Van Xiem on a morning in May. When it was still a bit foggy, Mr. Xiem brought back lotus flowers he had just picked from the lagoon. At that time, the family and workers quickly gathered to cup the petals. Everyone works quickly to get the pistil rice as quickly as possible. I don’t know when the craft of marinating lotus tea has existed in Hanoi, but he was born and raised with the family’s traditional lotus tea marinade from a young age. Mr. Siam said, until his son’s life, his family had 5 generations of making lotus tea. In the past, the old people only marinated tea to drink, treat friends and as gifts. When the market economy developed, many people came to lotus tea as a precious gift of Hanoi as a gift, the demand increased so he developed the family’s profession. Mr. Siam and his descendants separate the petals from the lotus. In order to have a stable source of lotus, Mr. Xiem rented 10,000 m2 of lagoon to cultivate cypress lotus. The lotus plant prefers clean soil and water to live. Therefore, the ingredients for marinating lotus tea are also clean. In the days of May, at the beginning of the season, the lotus pond blooms with about 1,000 – 2,000 flowers, only he and his descendants in the house do it. But in June and July, the lotus blooms, and there are days when up to 10,000 flowers bloom, his family has to hire workers to both pick lotuses under the lagoon and separate the petals at home. After separating and sieving, white lotus rice is obtained. If you want to marinate delicious lotus tea, you must not only know the profession but also understand the lotus. Because the lotus flower only gives the most fragrance when the petals have just opened. If the sun shines on the flower for a long time, the flower will quickly lose its scent, then marinated in tea will not smell anymore. Therefore, from 4 am, he and his family went to pick lotuses. The stage of separating the petals, sifting to get the rice of the pistil until the tea marinade must be finished before 12 noon, to ensure that the lotus flavor does not fly much. The tea selected to marinate lotus must be Thai Nguyen hook tea of ​​the best quality. Marinate lotus rice into tea, then brew and dry. This stage must be repeated 3 times with 21 days to complete 1 batch of lotus tea. The process of marinating the tea is also very elaborate. In the house, the process of marinating lotus rice in tea can only be done by him. The rice of about 1,500 lotus flowers can only marinate 3kg of tea. To make lotus tea delicious, fragrant and fragrant, it must be marinated, brewed, dried, and repeated 3 times. Each marinade takes 3 days. Calculated that each batch of tea from marinating, brewing and drying the finished product takes 21 days. During the time of flower separation, tea marinating and drying, although it is very hot, do not turn on fans and air conditioners, which will make the lotus lose its fragrance. The lotus tea of ​​Mr. Siam’s family was both clean and unique, so it was selected and allowed to serve at the US-North Korea Summit in Hanoi in 2019. After the conference, Mr. Siam was presented by the City People’s Committee. Certificate of Merit for achievements in serving at the Conference. Lotus tea – a gift of friendship Each stage to produce the finished product is a very meticulous tea lotus, if you do not see it with your own eyes, it is difficult for people to imagine. Therefore, each kilogram of lotus tea is currently selling for 7 million VND. In addition, Mr. Siam’s family also produces lotus tea. The price of each cotton ranges from 35,000-50,000 VND/cotton. Making lotus tea is very elaborate, but enjoying the tea must also be done properly to see all the aroma and fullness of the tea. The teapot must be an earthenware pot, without a glossy glaze. Small kettle, buffalo eye cup. After putting the tea into the teapot, rinse it with hot water, then pour the water into the tea and steep for 3-5 minutes to infuse. Mr. Siam also marinated tea in lotus flowers. Drinking lotus tea, if you hurry, you will not see the full flavor of the tea. When the tea is poured into the cup, before enjoying the tea, you must bring it to your nose to inhale each breath, enjoying the scent of lotus mixed with the tea. When drinking, also take small sips, hold the tea in your mouth and swallow slowly into your throat. Drinking lotus tea with relatives, confidants, even just a passerby who wants to hear a conversation about the profession makes people closer together and realizes the full taste of tea. Ms. Dao Thi Hue, from Gia Lam, works at Tay Ho Tourism Company. Previously, she still brought guests here to buy tea and enjoy tea with Mr. Siam’s family. Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 epidemic, she has not had the opportunity to bring guests here. But when the lotus blooms, she misses flowers, misses lotus tea, and sometimes goes to Mr. Siam’s house to drink and hear about tea.

Some common mistakes related to deodorant can be avoided if you really understand it. In addition, knowing what to look out for in order to correct mistakes is an important step. Distinguish deodorant and antiperspirant products Many people assume that deodorants and antiperspirants are used in the same way. This is one of the most common mistakes. Men should distinguish between deodorants and antiperspirants. Deodorants are targeted at eliminating odors. The other, on the other hand, suppresses perspiration and doesn’t always leave a fragrance. Besides, antiperspirants can cause irritation or damage if you have sensitive skin. It is important to note that the two types of products are clearly distinguished. You should understand that your body is in need of deodorant or sweat reduction. On the market, there are a number of products that cover both uses. At this point, men should learn carefully and take the time to try it out to see if it suits their body or not. Use deodorant properly For deodorant to work, it needs to be applied to clean, dry skin. These are the necessary conditions for the product to adhere well. Many people have not wiped off their deodorant before and applied another layer directly to the skin. This action will render the product ineffective. You can use a damp cloth or handkerchief to wipe off the previous layer of deodorant and then apply the next layer. Before using the underarm roller, men should clean the skin under the arm. GQ Mexico suggests that men should use deodorant at night. During sleep, perspiration begins to appear. Therefore, men can apply a little before sleeping. In addition, you should clean the skin under your arms to eliminate odor-related problems. Another basic mistake many people often make is using too much deodorant but it doesn’t work. This is a sign that this product is not right for you. Good deodorants will be effective in 1-2 times. Meanwhile, applying too much deodorant can leave stains on clothes. These are very difficult stains to remove. To avoid having a strange scent on the body, men should combine with the right perfume. The smell of perfume and deodorant spray or roll should have a certain harmony.

If in previous years, Australian mango exports with large fruits usually cost 40,000 – 50,000 VND/kg, this year this mango has dropped dramatically but the purchasing power is still slow. As noted by a VOV reporter, at the Southern Wholesale Market, Hanoi, each kilogram of Australian mangoes currently costs from 10 to 15 thousand VND. The giant mango variety weighs a pound, even the fruit is up to nearly 2kg, sweet, fragrant, thick mango flesh, dark color looks very eye-catching. Ms. Hoa – a small trader specializing in selling fruit at the Southern Wholesale Market (Hanoi) shared that every year Australian mango exports should be priced. This year, due to the influence of the disease, mangoes are in season and delicious, but the price is very cheap. The buying power at the market is also not as strong as every year. Australian mango fruit is large, round, red when ripe. There are types of purple pink, when ripe, the intestines are yellow, the taste is sweet and cool. Due to competition with many other fruits in season such as plums, pineapples, melons, and watermelons, Australian mango consumption is slow. Therefore, Australian mango growers and traders are forced to reduce prices sharply to sell out quickly. In previous years, this large, beautiful and fragrant mango was very popular with foreign consumers, but due to the Covid-19 epidemic causing difficulties for export, domestic mango consumption was slow, so the price fell unprecedentedly. In addition to the red and ripe Australian mango, there are also large mango varieties with thick flesh and pink skin that look very eye-catching on the market. The price of this giant mango is also super cheap, only from 10 to 15 thousand VND/kg.

This is a type of tea that is marinated straight into the lotus flower. Calling lotus tea “Xoi” is to distinguish it from lotus tea marinated with lotus rice and then dried, which is made very elaborately and meticulously. The word shack probably describes it all for this marinade, which is quick and doesn’t take much effort. However, it is not “sweet” but not delicious, “squat” lotus tea has its own taste and flavor different from lotus tea marinated with dried rice but the price is much cheaper. Therefore, in recent years, lotus tea “Xoi” has become a favorite drink of Hanoians, a gift for Hanoians to give to loved ones far away… The lotus season is in full swing, Ms. Vinh Quyen (Hanoi) introduces to you a way of making lotus tea “steamed” for use and as a gift. How to choose tea marinated lotus Ms. Vinh Quyen said, for good lotus tea, the most important step is choosing lotus. Not all types of lotus can marinate tea. The white lotus is really beautiful, but it is only for plugging, but not for tea because of its light flavor. As for marinating tea, it must be pink lotus because pink lotus has a stronger flavor, “eating tea” more. The pink lotus must be a West Lake lotus, not a kneeling lotus, that is, a lotus without a row of small petals between the outer layer of large petals and the inner layer of pistil. From ancient times until now, Hanoi people necessarily only use Tay Ho – Quang Ba lotus to marinate tea. The lotus here has hundreds of small petals arranged thickly in the lotus, while in other regions the wings are often few and thin, so it is not enough to store the aroma when marinating the tea. In addition, perhaps due to soil conditions, West Lake lotus flowers often have a more fragrant aroma than lotus from other regions. Hanoi does not grow tea, but because there is such a special type of lotus, by default, lotus tea is a Hanoi specialty. Lotus tea must be picked early in the morning, choose flowers with large buds, newly opened wings called flute mouths so that the fragrance is still fragrant and the petals are intact). Lotus must be picked on a sunny day to have a strong scent. In the days and nights before the heavy rain, they did not pick lotus flowers to make tea because the lotus smell was light and the tea was not fragrant. Resources – Lotus flower – Tea: There are many kinds of delicious tea to marinate lotus such as Shan Tuyet tea of ​​Ha Giang, Tan Cuong Thai Nguyen tea, Suoi Ngang tea… Usually, many people use Thai Nguyen tea to marinate lotus tea both deliciously and well. Same with Thai tea, but choosing a hook, hook or nail to marinate depends on the preferences and economy of each person. In the past, the tea used to marinate was usually the previous year’s tea to make the tea less pungent, but now, everything is changed in the industry, so most people ignore this requirement. – Lotus leaves: Choose medium-sized leaves, when wrapping the leaves, they will be soft and easy to pack. Fresh leaves must be dried in the sun a little to wilt. – Lat: The tea bag must be soaked in water to soften. – Plastic bags and vacuum presses (if you don’t have them, rent them). – Porcelain tea bowl, wooden spoon to take tea into the lotus. – Buckets, jars, water pitchers. How to marinate Note After buying lotus flowers, you should quickly marinate the tea in the lotus, do not leave it for too long, the flower will lose its scent, and the tea obtained will not be strong. If the purchased lotus has not been marinated immediately, use a towel dipped in water to wrap the lotus bunch to keep the lotus fresh. When doing the same (if there are many lotuses, they will also cover the lotus with a towel, take it out wherever you go) because the lotus leaves it out in the hot weather very quickly. Before marinating the tea, the embalmer must bathe cleanly, do not use shampoo or shower gel, perfume to ensure that the original incense tea is not mixed. Contraindicated for anyone with sweaty hands. Steps to marinate tea Ms. Vinh Quyen shared: “Called lotus tea, of course, the important ingredients must be tea and lotus. Lotus tea is extremely harmonious, one respects the other and then blends into a charming scent. Put the tea in a porcelain bowl or put it on a tray lined with lotus leaves. Take the lotus flower and gently remove it so that the lotus petals are open to see the lotus mirror. Use a wooden spoon to scoop 15-20 g of tea (depending on each person’s preference for dark and light tea) and gently put it in the bottom of the lotus (use a wooden spoon, not a hand, an iron spoon so that the tea does not have an odor). After putting the tea into the lotus, gently stroke it to rearrange the petals like the original shape. The lotus leaf is cut into quarters, and the flower is wrapped tightly, tied tightly with a ladle. Remember to soak in water because it’s soft to fasten. However, if you tie it tight enough, the lotus leaf will break if you tie it too tight. The lotus package should not be too tight, just enough to hug the flower and keep it closed, there must be enough room for the lotus to “breathe”. After the lotus is filled with tea and sealed, it is plugged into a pot, a bucket of water for 18-24 hours gives the lotus time to “breathe” to infuse all the incense into the tea. After 18-24 hours, cut the lotus and put it in a vacuum sealed plastic bag and freeze it. Lotus tea can be used in the freezer for at least 7 days. Note to avoid contamination of food in the refrigerator, causing the tea to lose its taste. Stored in the freezer continuously, lotus tea can be used from this year’s season to next year’s season. Wish you all success with quality tea lotus flowers!

For the people of Hanoi, summer is not only the season of the brilliant red phoenix, the faithful purple mausoleum or the golden canary flower in a corner of the sky, but also the most brilliant lotus flower season.

White lotus is native to India, lotus pond owners said, if well cared for, the plant can grow to nearly 2 meters, the roots crawl horizontally under the water about 3 meters. Referring to Hanoi lotus, people often refer to West Lake lotus. But West Lake lotus flowers often bloom late, so at this time, the street vendors are usually imported from Tu Liem, Thanh Tri, Thuong Tin… The flower buds are nestled on the green foliage.

Chestnut trees are often planted in the corner of the yard or garden. Chestnut is a humble tree, accustomed to living a simple life. Many say they often grow on wild hills. But perhaps, ordinary people often encounter them in the familiar living space of an idyllic, rustic countryside with village and neighborly love, with simple and kind people. Looking at the slender tree’s shadow nestled in the wind, I often wonder: If it weren’t for the fragile, slightly curled long-petaled flowers, would anyone notice the existence of that tree in the world? The flowers are like beautiful little lanterns emitting a sweet fragrance, when they are new, they are green, when they have saved enough wind and dew, they will turn into sunny colors, which is a charming and delicate touch that nature created. dedicated to this plant. Chestnut flowers have long, thin, drooping petals, green when new, then turn pale yellow Because they are used to a simple life, even though they are planted in the yard, outside the gate or sometimes forgotten, lying dormant in a corner of the garden, chestnut flowers still radiate fragrance and bloom. Then, every time the wind accidentally passed by, carrying that cool, gentle scent, each person’s soul would give rise to feelings, feelings of restlessness, anxiety, reminiscent of the peaceful and full of peace. memories, nostalgia. From a distance, chestnut flowers look like pretty little lanterns hanging from the tree Many generations of students have passed the innocent and pure age with the poem “Bundle of chestnuts” by poet Xuan Hoai: “Where is the tree bank crowded with leaves / Where is the bunch of chestnuts hanging? / The wind brings strange scents / Always fragrant, stirring!”. Not only the scent, the “bundle of chestnut flowers” is reminiscent, but also filled with images and childhood memories: “Boyfriend picks up branches/Girlfriend picks up his hands/Boyfriend’s pocket is full/Girlfriend’s hat is behind/This bunch of yellow flowers/Inviting each other for her/Class hasn’t arrived yet/Scented the teacher’s desk “. Unknowingly smiling, the scent of chestnut flowers still follows the wind and fills my mind. Missing the days spent with friends playing under the shady old oak tree. An elementary school with a few rows of horizontal houses, the school yard is still the ground. The mischievous students gathered in groups of five and three, playing all kinds of games on that yard. This is playing umbrella, playing u, skipping rope, throwing cans, playing marbles… Everyone is enthusiastic and passionate as if they never get bored, the sweat pouring out on their faces also innocently raises their sleeves to swipe and swipe. and then engrossed in the game, shouting loudly. Remember the resounding reading lessons, math exercises that have to “mobilize” all 10 toes, fingers still find it difficult… Missing teachers, caring teachers, dedicated to teaching… Remember the feeling of craving ice cream cones sold in front of the school gate after school. The ice cream stick costs only 200 VND but yearns for a whole childhood… Many years have passed, those innocence and purity follow the hustle and bustle of life, but the memories and nostalgia still follow the attached scent of rag flowers, deposited in the mind forever. leave. That place is a peaceful landing place so that when we are tired and exhausted, we seek refuge, a “spiritual medicine” to ease the pain, heal the wounded soul. Now, every time I look out at the yard in front of the house, where the jasmine tree silently emits a sweet and fragrant fragrance, every flower season, I often remember that sweet and clear memory. This year’s grandmother is over 90 years old, often whispering to her granddaughter-in-law “help her pick some bunches of chestnuts, she puts them at the bedside for fragrance”. My father-in-law often keeps the habit of picking a few bunches of ragweed flowers on the full moon day and putting them on a small plate on the altar to burn incense for the ancestors. And my little daughter, even though she’s only just turned three, loves to smell chestnuts. I am glad that. However, it is still attractive with industrial, synthetic scents emanating from cakes, candies and countless other things. But after all, the memories and nostalgia of a wild flower with a sweet and fragrant scent will be a peaceful destination that follows us for the rest of our lives.

GQ Espana has listed common mistakes when buying perfumes. Try the smell directly at the store When choosing perfumes, many people have the habit of testing scents at the store. After each spray, the space is changed and saturated so easily that the smell is contaminated. Therefore, this medium is no longer ideal to try because it is mixed with many different scents. You can hardly spot the exact smell. You can request a sample and smell it in less impurities, away from the olfactory clutter. You should not spray your perfume before trying a new product. Photo: 123RF. Before choosing a new fragrance, you should not use old products. Old odor is also a contaminant factor, hindering the recognition of new scent. The essences grow better when the skin is in perfect condition. For this reason, it’s a good idea to apply a bit of an unscented moisturizer on areas like the wrists or the back of your hands. Select or discard after 10 seconds Fragrances develop in 3 distinct stages. The surface layer, also known as the top scent, is described as volatile, lasting about 15 minutes. The middle scent forms the core of the perfume. It has medium volatility, which takes place about 2 hours after spraying. After 5 hours, the final stage appeared. This is the most durable scent class and creates the essence of the fragrance. If you want to test the change, keep the piece of paper soaked in perfume and let it develop in full 3 stages. With the same perfume bottle, it can smell different from person to person. Photo: Pinterest. Try too many products The right time to buy perfume is in the morning. This is when your sense of smell works best. After a long exposure to a variety of scents, you may experience a “blind” nose state. When you no longer sense a scent, you tend to increase your perfume dosage. Be sure to spray 3-4 times as a sufficient dose in areas with pulse (behind the ears, on the neck, the inner wrists, chest and behind the knees). This is where the body temperature is higher, helping the fragrance to emit the correct scent. To get rid of this, push your nose inside your elbow and take a few deep breaths. You should limit the number of fragrance tests, to about 3 scents at a time. Photo: A Cup of Jo.
