Brewing Your Chai
There are so many ways to make a cup. We can't all make the tea like the Chai Wallah in Jaipur, brewing spicy tea for hours but we have a quick-never-fail way of making chai.
This is what we do on a busy morning, no fuss, no mess & it works every time.
Plunger method
We've converted our 1.2 litre coffee plunger into a"chai plunger".
You'll need 1 tablespoon of chai, 1/2 boiling water, 1/2 of milk of your choice & real honey.
1/ Put a tablespoon of chai in the plunger
2/ Fill the plunger halfway with boiling water and allow to steep for 5 minutes
3/ To a small saucepan add enough milk to fill the rest of the plunger & heat, taking care not to boil
4/ Add the heated milk to the plunger & allow to steep for a further 5 minutes. The longer the chai steeps, the stronger the brew
5/ Add a teaspoon of real honey to your favourite cup as it adds to the intensity of the flavour
6/ Stir well & enjoy
*
Traditional method
1/ Add a table spoon of chai to a pot or saucepan
2/ Fill with water to just under the half way mark and bring to the boil
3/ Reduce & simmer for 5 minutes
4/ Reduce the heat further & add as much milk as you did water & continue to heat, taking care not to boil
5/ Strain into a cup or mug
6/ Sweeten with honey
*
TradeRoots Reusable Tea Bags or Tea Strainer
1/ Place a desert spoon of chai into the tea bag & pull the string closed
2/ Pop the bag into a tea cup & pour over with boiling water. Allow to steep for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally
3/ Add a tea spoon of real honey & your choice of milk
4/ If your the type of tea drinker that likes to leave the bag in, enjoy
5/ Otherwise strain the tea bag and leave aside to dry. Allowing it to dry will make it easier to open for the next cup
6/ Pull the bag open and empty the chai into the compost, rinse with water & leave aside to dry
7/ Find your happy, comfy place & enjoy!!
The turmeric will turn the teabag a beautiful orange/yellow colour
