The present invention provides a method for producing tea leaves, comprising the steps of: pulverizing tea leaves to a particle size of 100 to 500 mesh; Preparing a dough having a water content of 40 to 60 wt% by adding water to the dried tea leaf powder obtained in the pulverization step; A car dough molding step of molding the car dough to a thickness of 0.3 to 1.3 cm; A first drying step of drying the dough molding obtained in the molding step at 10 to 35 DEG C for 4 to 36 hours; And a second drying step of drying the dried molding obtained in the first drying step at 50 to 80 캜 for 30 minutes to 4 hours.

In the present invention, the dried tea leaves may be green tea leaves or fermented tea leaves regardless of degree of fermentation, and the fermented tea leaves may be black tea leaves or black tea leaves.

The particle size of the dried tea leaves is 100 to 500 mesh, preferably 150 to 300 mesh. In the present invention, it is an important factor for bonding the tea leaf powder to each other while adding water only without applying pressure during molding.

In the case of a size of about 20 to 50 mesh, for example, a tea leaf coarse powder added to the inside of the tea bag, it is difficult to prepare a dough by adding water only to the powder, and even if the dough is molded, The surface can be divided smoothly, and when it is put in hot water, it can not maintain its shape and it is released immediately. In order to form the tea leaf pulverized product with a particle size smaller than the above lower limit value, it is required to be steeped again with water vapor or immersed in water for a long time, so that a separate additional process is required and the process becomes complicated. In this process, The problem of leaching out is also generated.

When the above-mentioned upper limit value is exceeded, for example, when a finely grounded horse tea is used at about 800 mesh, the processing cost for fine grinding is increased, but it is not much more advantageous than the scope of the present invention in dough production or molding, The powdered tea produced by using the powdered tea powder is dense and has a problem in that the water penetration rate is slowed when it is concerned with hot water and is late.

In the present invention, at least one material selected from the group consisting of herbal powder, fruit powder, and grain powder may be further added to the tea dough producing step in addition to the dried tea leaf powder and water. The amount of at least one material selected from the herb powder, the fruit powder and the cereal powder is 1 to 40 parts by weight, preferably 5 to 20 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the dried tea leaf powder. When the addition amount of any one or more of the above-mentioned materials selected from the above-mentioned hub powder, fruit powder and grain powder exceeds the upper limit value, it is difficult to manufacture or form tea dough, and the tea leaves can not maintain its shape when concerned with hot water. Preferably, the particle size of the herb powder, the fruit powder and the cereal powder is 50 to 200 mesh, more preferably 50 to 200% larger than the dry tea leaf powder. And powder having a different particle size is mixed with each other to enhance the bonding force of the powder mixture. The herbal powder may be selected and used arbitrarily in consideration of the preference or function of at least one selected from peppermint, rosemary, fennel, lemon balm, lemongrass, rooibos, lavender, chamomile, jasmine, time and chrysanthemum. The cereal powder may be roasted brown rice, white rice, barley, wheat, buckwheat, and yulmu.

In the present invention, water is added to the dried tea leaf powder obtained in the pulverization step to prepare a dough having a moisture content of 40 to 60% by weight. Even when one or more materials selected from the herb powder, the fruit powder and the cereal powder are further contained in the dough producing step, the moisture content of the dough should be kept within the above range. When the moisture content is less than the above range, it is difficult to produce a dough by wetting the dry tea leaf powder, and cracks can easily occur in the first and second drying steps, and when the moisture content exceeds the above range, Is too high to form, and it is also difficult to sufficiently remove moisture through the first and second drying steps.

In the present invention, the temperature of the water to be added to the dough is 5 to 40 캜, and water at room temperature can be used without particular warming.

In the present invention, the water in the carp brewing step may be tea. The dough can be produced using ordinary clean water. However, when tea is used, it can provide a certain tea flavor even when the tea time is very short when the tea is put into the hot water. As the tea, tea or tea extract diluted with clean water can be used.

In the present invention, the car dough molding step is performed to apply the car dough to a predetermined thickness, and then the opened car dough is die-cut into a predetermined shape. The roller can be pressed by a roller or a press in an open space to spread the car dough into a certain thickness. When the roller or the press is pressed to a predetermined thickness in the open space, substantially no pressure acts. The fact that the pressure does not act means that the molding of the present invention does not apply pressure for a long period of time, such as pressing the mold for a few days with a rolling mill, compressing it with a hydraulic press or compressing the mold, Means applying a press or roller and working within 30 minutes at a pressure of less than 10 kgf / cm ² .

In the present invention, the car dough molding step is to form the car dough to a thickness of 0.3 to 1.3 cm. Since the car dough is molded without adding any additional pressure and then dried, When the thickness of the dough molding is less than the lower limit, drying is easy and quick, but the shape is deformed due to the twisting in the drying process, and the dough tea produced after drying is too thin and easily broken in the storage and distribution process, It is too thick, so that even if the first and second drying steps are carried out, water remains in the inside, which may cause a problem of microbial growth during the distribution process, and may be swollen at the time of worrying about hot water.

In the present invention, the first drying step is carried out at 10 to 35 ° C for 4 to 36 hours, and can be naturally dried at room temperature without using a separate drying apparatus. The moisture is dried around the surface of the car dough molding by natural drying, and when the first drying step is too short or the first drying step is omitted and the second drying step is performed, When cracked and worried about hot water, it does not retain its shape and easily cracks.

In the second drying step, the dried material obtained in the first drying step is dried at 50 to 80 ° C. for 30 minutes to 4 hours to remove water remaining in the center of the green tea, It is necessary to lower the content to improve preservation. In the case where the first drying step is carried out for more than 36 hours without performing the second drying step, the drying period becomes too long, and even if drying is performed for 3 to 5 days, the thickness of the thicker car dough molding It may not be dried to the inside.

The thickness of the quarry after the second drying step is compressed to a thickness of 40 to 60% of the thickness of the quarry dough.

The slurry prepared by the above method has a density of 0.95 to 1.1 g / ml, which sinks when placed in water and has a flat arbitrary shape with a thickness of 0.15 to 0.7 cm and a shape molded in water at 50 to 100 ° C for at least 10 minutes So that a clear color can be maintained.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Such variations and modifications are intended to be within the scope of the appended claims.
