Tea ZUKUSHI dish
Today, I taught tea tasting dishes to all intern students.
It’s possible to cook and eat tea!
The kinds of Tea we will use today:
- Fresh tea leaf
- Roasted Tea
- Tea Powder
- Brewed tea leaves
- Tea
So please try by all means.
- Fresh Tea Leaf Tempura
Because it isn’t time for the first tea of the season yet. Leaf we harvested last year was taken out of the freezer and defrosted.
It has been the leaf which withered a little as expected.
- Hojicha Rice
When setting rice in a rice cooker here, the brewed roasted tea we chose is put in.
Used tea: Dark Roast Hojicha
