This ensures that the oxidase activity in the fresh tea leaves is rapidly inactivated in a short time, preventing the tea leaves from fermenting and turning red. Meanwhile, some moisture is evaporated, making the fresh tea leaves soft and facilitating the subsequent shaping. This is a crucial step in forming the shape and aroma of Houkui.
