The tea leaf, the secret to subtly flavoring your preparations
When you boil rice or vegetables, remember to slip in a tea bag to reuse it! The tea is still full of its flavor which will enhance your dishes. For this use, prefer a tea with sweet, slightly bitter notes such as jasmine tea.
Who said steaming couldn't rhyme with flavor? For your fish recipes in foil, add your loose brewed green tea leaves to recycle them. With the steam, the tea will release its aromas in the baking paper to concoct homemade recipes that are as tasty as they are healthy.
Cold tea to deglaze and roast your meat
If you were in a hurry this morning and didn't have time to finish your drink, try this chef's tip. Like alcohol or vinegar, tea is ideal for deglazing homemade preparations. Pour cold tea into a very hot pan to catch the cooking juices and create an irresistible sauce.
For your oven preparations, keep your drink cold to water your piece of meat while it is cooking. The aromas of the tea will bring depth to the taste and soften the flesh. For a roast or a leg of lamb, don’t hesitate to recycle a strong theine tea like black tea.
Brewed tea for deflated eyes and mermaid hair
