Cooking with Ceylon Tea...
a refreshing & innovative
experience
Tea is finally breaking out of
its familiar role as an accompaniment to afternoon tea fare and emerging as a
provocative ingredient and more and more chefs around the world are bringing
tea into the kitchen to create recipes using tea for entrees, desserts, or as a
base for sophisticated new drinks. This "old" beverage easily
translates as a "new" ingredient that adds an indefinable something
to a dish and helps a recipe evolve into one that is beautifully compounded with
flavor. Tea is an essential part of fine living and dining ... just as wines
are selected to enhance certain foods, teas can also be selected and brewed to
match sweet, savory, or spicy foods and the various hours and moods of the day.
Like fine wine, the quality of tea depends on climatic conditions, regional
characteristics, and the expertise of the plantation manager and the blender. But,
also like good wine, there is only a limited quantity of premium tea available
in the world. These recipes are refreshing, innovative, healthy, full of
flavor, interesting, and easy for anyone to prepare. And, best of all, tea is
the ideal condiment: no calories, no sodium, no sugar, no fat - just pure
flavor.
Long regarded in the Orient as a health beverage, tea is now medically accepted as having natural properties (polyphenols that process antioxidants) beneficial to health. A cup of tea generally has only one-third the caffeine content of a typical cup of coffee. Ceylon tea is an incredible flavor enhancer; it can be just the right addition to so many... such as tea shortcakes and truffles to traditional dishes using fish, meat, or even tofu with tea to delight any palate. There is a color photograph of each finished recipe, so you will see at the beginning what the dish will look like at the end... a real bonus when you are trying something new! Whether your experience with tea is simply drinking a cup occasionally or frequently, with these easy-to-follow recipes and photographs to guide you, we invite you to experience the fascination and excitement of cooking with Ceylon tea. You can have fun cooking and enjoy preparing these simple recipes as much as you and your guests or family will enjoy eating them.
