Kettle- a must-have item in every kitchen. If there is no actual kettle in the kitchen, then there is an item that replaces it.

The history of the invention of this item is shrouded in shadow ancient China. The first teapots appeared before our era in Jiangsu province, the city of Yixing. They were made from Yixing clay, wonderful in its performance, which not only had a porous surface, which allowed the tea to “breathe,” but was also strong enough to withstand hot water.

Later, cast iron teapots appeared; craftsmen quickly realized that cast iron heats up quickly and retains heat for a long time. In addition, cast iron is much stronger than clay, the products turned out to be durable, and the tea was strong.

In those days, small teapots were especially valued. Ideally, this utensil should fit in the palm of your hand. The smaller the kettle, the tastier and more aromatic the drink comes out. The older the clay teapot, the better it is. After all, it retains the memory of the tea that was brewed in it several years ago. The clay has a porous structure and perfectly preserves the aroma of tea.

A few hundred years later, porcelain was invented in China, and now teapots began to be made from it. Porcelain was covered with snow-white enamel, on which lotuses blossomed, dragons settled, craftsmen invented and imprinted not only paintings, but also geometric patterns on the walls of teapots.

In Europe, teapots appeared only in the sixteenth century; these inconvenient, heavy products acquired our usual form only by the beginning of the eighteenth century. Then porcelain began to be produced in Europe. But this was not the end of the story. The traditional European teapot of the early twentieth century is tin or silver. Restraint of form and average characteristics of the tea.

The teapot came to us from afar, and has undergone many changes, different materials, shapes, and even methods of use. There is a kettle for boiling water, for brewing tea, a thermos kettle, and in Perevyasle-Zalessky, in the teapot museum, there is even a moonshine kettle.

Let's take care about ensuring that our kettle is clean, beautiful and safe, giving us joy and good mood every day.

Marvelous! But the manual production of teapots made of heat-resistant glass simply amazes with the quality, beauty and precise work of the master.

Background to the appearance of the teapot The history of the teapot is much shorter than the history of tea itself, and all because in those distant times there was simply no need for it. In the 8th century AD, tea leaves were rolled by hand, dried, and then ground into powder. Then salt was added to the powder and placed in boiling water to obtain a thick mixture, which was called tea. Over time, the procedure changed a little: they began to add hot water to the tea powder and whisk until foam forms. This method of preparing tea was first used in Japan in the 9th century. The traditional method of brewing tea became popular at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty in China, from 1368 to 1644. It was then that the leaves began to be poured with boiling water, and in order for the drink to infuse and remain warm, a sealed container was needed.

The very first teapots were made from special (Issin) red clay. It was believed that for brewing tea, dishes made of this material are best suited. Yixing clay is mined in Jiangsu, the city of Issing. Thanks to its special finely porous structure, it allows air to penetrate the walls of the kettle, but does not allow water to pass through. Over time, teapots made from Isshin clay absorb aroma oils and other tea enzymes, which over the years begin to enhance the taste of the drink. This is why very old teapots are especially valuable. In China, there is even a legend according to which you can pour hot water into the oldest teapots made of Yixing clay, and it will turn into tea itself. China - the birthplace of the first teapot

The creation of the teapot as we know it is based on the fusion of two trends, European and Chinese. Europeans were introduced to coffee and used Turkish coffee pots. The Chinese transported tea in wine vessels, which was an overseas curiosity. The teapot received its spherical shape. The teapot is still a purely European invention. At the beginning of the 18th century, German craftsmen learned to produce porcelain equal in quality to Chinese. A little later, tea utensils made of metal also appeared (silver utensils were valued). Tin teapots appeared as more cheap option. At the end of the 18th century, the teapot acquired all its main features, which, in general, it has retained to this day. The history of the teapot's transformation

In Rus', the teapot appeared much earlier than tea itself. And he came to us from Scandinavia from northern peoples. The first kettle was elongated, and sbiten, a honey drink with herbs, was boiled in it. An egg-shaped vessel with a handle, suspended from the ceiling, was used for brewing herbs; tea leaves did not yet exist. Tea first began to be mentioned in Rus' in the middle of the 17th century. Only a century after the import of tea, samovars and teapots appeared in Rus'. The appearance of a teapot in Rus'

A samovar is a purely Russian version of a teapot, designed for boiling water and pouring it into cups. In the first samovars, water was boiled thanks to a special firebox filled with coals. But later they began to produce kerosene and electric samovars. The birthplace of the samovar is the Urals; its inventors were the Lisitsyn brothers - Nazar and Ivan, in 1778. Industrially, the first samovar was made in Tula, and already in 1850, in this city there were 28 factories for their production, with a volume of 120,000 products per year! Symbol of Russia

The electric kettle was invented by an inventive German. The heating element, as in modern kettles, was located at the bottom. The only fundamental difference from a modern kettle was the lack of automatic shutdown, but that was soon invented. Electrically heated kettles are very popular these days. various forms. Technology does not stand still and a radio-controlled kettle has already been born.

A kettle is a vessel with a handle and spout for boiling water or brewing tea. I puff, puff, puff, I don’t want to get warm anymore. The lid rang loudly: Drink tea, the water has boiled!

How did the teapot come about? The first teapots appeared in the homeland of tea in China. They were made from the famous Ising clay of a dark red color, so named because of the city of Ising.

Some time later, after porcelain was invented in China, teapots also began to be made from this new material.

What do you need to know when handling a kettle? Do not leave the kettle unattended; if the water boils away, the kettle will deteriorate or melt, and may even cause a fire. Pour boiling water carefully so as not to get burned. If the kettle handle gets hot, grab the kettle with a potholder or oven mitt.

Throughout its history, the teapot has changed its shape and material more than once, but has always remained unchanged and faithful assistant in any kitchen.

History of the teapot started in China. In this country, tea became the most popular drink back in the 10th century.

The first teapots were made from Yixing clay, then the Chinese learned to make porcelain. The teapot came to Europe at the beginning of the 16th century. thanks to the English king, who in 1664 was the first to appreciate the miracle herb tea brought to him as a gift by merchants.

At that time, a teapot was a small pot intended for one serving of tea. The transformation of the teapot into the one we use today was due to the fusion of this teapot with an Islamic coffee pot and a Chinese wine vessel in which tea was transported. The current teapot inherited its spherical shape from this wine vessel.

The first teapots made in Europe were significantly inferior to the elegant Chinese products - they were made of rough ceramics and were heavy and uncomfortable. Therefore, China remained the main supplier of porcelain teapots until the 18th century. - It was then that the Germans learned to produce porcelain that was not inferior to Chinese.

Since then, mass production of teapots began at European enterprises. Some time later, in addition to porcelain teapots, silver teapots began to be produced. However, they were not widely used due to the fact that they were too hot, which negatively affected the taste of the tea. In addition, their handle also became very hot.

At the end of the 18th century. teapots acquired features familiar to us today, which can be called classic. In the 20th century the shape of teapots was influenced by technological progress and the general desire for simple forms and increasing functionality, as well as popular art movements such as cubism.

During the Second World War and the subsequent crisis, the history of the teapot was not updated with any new data. There was a crisis and depression. Only in the second half of the 20th century. tea production began to develop again, continuing the path of functional modernism. And in the 80s of the 20th century. Eighteenth-century elegance has returned to teapot design, classic shapes, which were extremely popular in the USSR, and classic tea sets made of porcelain or earthenware were an invariable attribute of every home and the most popular gift. Such elegant sets with exquisite decor are in constant demand today.

However, nowadays the list of materials from which teapots are made has expanded significantly. For example, in Europe, metal teapots are popular, designed for 1-2 cups and designed for brewing tea bags. Glass teapots are quite popular. Naturally, heat-resistant glass is used for their manufacture. In addition, teapots can be clay, porcelain, earthenware and even plastic.

What is there no tea party without? What can you imagine no kitchen without? Of course, without a kettle! Today there are a great variety of different models of teapots on the market to suit every taste and budget. Conventional and electric, made of metal, plastic, porcelain and glass, plain and patterned, different forms and sizes. Teapots have long been firmly established in our lives and have become an integral part of our everyday life. What is the history of this household utensil? Our article will tell you about this.

Now China is one of the leaders in the production of tea, flavored and simple varieties.

The first teapots appeared in the homeland of tea in China. Instances of that time were made from the famous Yixing clay of a dark red color, so named due to its place of origin - the city of Yixing. Tea brewed in such teapots had the highest organoleptic characteristics. And this happened thanks to Yixing clay, which, having a porous structure, allowed the tea to “breathe”, did not change its color and aroma, and also allowed for a long time maintain the temperature of freshly brewed tea.

Some time later, after porcelain was invented in China, teapots also began to be made from this new material, which in its properties was close to Yixing clay.

In Europe, the first teapots appeared in the 16th century, but the work of local craftsmen was heavy, inconvenient, not particularly beautiful and, naturally, could not be compared with the elegant teapots made in China. And only in the 18th century, after porcelain began to be made in Europe, teapots worthy of their Chinese counterparts appeared here. Later, silver and tin appeared among the materials used to make teapots.

The 19th century was marked by the appearance of the first electric kettles, which were invented in Germany. The heating element of electric kettles of that time, as today, was located under the bottom of the kettle. But this is one of the few similarities between a modern electric kettle and its ancestor, because during its existence this type of kettle has changed a lot, and primarily in functional terms.

Modern models of electric kettles are equipped with automatic shutdown functions when water boils, as well as when an empty kettle is turned on. If earlier kettles were plugged into an outlet through an electrical cord inserted directly into the kettle itself, today electric kettles are installed on stands from which the power cord comes and are turned on by simply pressing a button. Electric kettles are also equipped with a measuring scale, making it easy to determine the exact amount of water in the kettle. In addition, today there are electric kettles in which you can set the desired water temperature, as well as radio-controlled kettles, to turn them on you need to send them an SMS. Electric kettles are made from plastic, metal and glass.

Over the course of its history, the kettle has changed its shape and material of manufacture more than once, but has always remained an unchanged and faithful assistant in any kitchen.
