Cooking method

  • It seems I made a mistake, which gave an interesting result. You ask - what am I talking about?
  • And here's the thing!
  • In my new mix, I took, and combined plants that have their own strong aroma and flavor values. These are: black alder, abundantly flowering elk and meadow mint.
  • Here are the main "participants in the process" in the photographs:

  • Traditionally, the fillers are: wild pear, apple wild, strawberry leaf, a little dry steppe sage.
  • Of course I laugh about the mistake, the result exceeded all my wildest expectations, but nevertheless! I sat for some time in confusion after a test brewing and thought, for the first time I can not describe the taste of the infusion, it is so different from all the previous teas I made. Such an iridescent taste and aftertaste that it is impossible to understand who is driving the main note in the tea. All three components are really felt, there is no foreground or background, alder fits perfectly - with the astringency described by you earlier and a light bitterness that lasts for a long time in the aftertaste.

  • Here I am now sharing with you - the unexpectedly AMAZING tea !!! And this was a test without dry pre-fermentation and subsequent aging, practically in the heat of the air! The first 15-20 minutes I roasted at 150 °, despite the presence of mint and the color of the sucker. Then main drying with stirring every 5-7 minutes. at 90-100 ° And after covering the granules with a crust felt to the touch, I finished drying it at a minimum, I don't know the temperature, there are no exact values ​​on the flag of my gas oven. Even the color did not disappoint, saturated, thick, purely brewed.

  • Now I am afraid of one thing, that any of the components would not upset the balance, coming to the fore, or vice versa, would not disappear during ripening. And I recommend that you try it, and evaluate for yourself whether such a mix is ​​worthy to arouse the desire to do and do it more than once!
  • Thank you all for the great forum and nice, tasty teas for everyone! ))

In! An interesting recipe! I took it to the piggy bank. How does a goof feel here? I, by a sinful deed, do not really like him. Feel strong?

When it is hardened, I am also at a loss, such a nasty smell, it is difficult to call it an aroma. But how does he transform in mixes !!!! That's just when the leaves - I don't feel it, I put more for color. And blooming is just a honey flavor! For some reason, Napoleon cake reminds me
In general, a double impression from the sucker. This season, only the blooming one collected, for this party this




By the way, in that big mix that I sent you - it is also there, a little true

Well, new tea And I have no mint (I'm already tired of asking, like a nonsense question, I always had it, but how I needed it, so I'm looking with the dogs.), No sucker can get hold of mint, in the end, only instead of a sucker, then sea ​​buckthorn, at least approximately
, but I will make a very tasty description of the seagull itself
Yuri K
kartinka, Marin, yes, this mint grows along the shores of reservoirs! She gravitates towards moisture, always fresh, juicy)) Look, tear off the leaf, smell it! You will definitely meet!

Well wooooot!
Mint only grows in my garden (but there are five species), there is no dry steppe sage and is not expected. Loch faded long ago (and again we could not follow him). And the wild strawberry "left" from our places in the accessible proximity, and there is absolutely no way to go far (I myself am afraid, and my husband has been on business trips all summer)
Therefore, I only envy, lick my lips, salivate and cry into my pillow at night!
YuriThank you for the kick in the direction of finding new combinations, new flavors and tea aromas!

What seagulls !!! There is no sucker, there is sea buckthorn, I will take mint in the garden, I think it will grow even after pruning, I will ask for a pear, I will find an apple tree, strawberries too, I will take a gray alder, we have climbed everything, we do not have it. And the sage is gone. And I'm frozen out.

Do not Cry, Radushka, and then in fact I, too, will be upset From the fact that mind you - all I have some kind of "one-time" teas are obtained for recipes. In a sense, the stars "must coincide" so that even that would grow and it would bloom Not all-season teas ... I myself hardly repeat them through the season (there is no alder, or I barely collected rose hips for "Pink" this year, I managed, etc.) . e)

Note - I did an emphasis on the blooming sucker, sea buckthorn of the same family with him - it would be nice to bloom with you Well, sage is apparently just my background, how many girls have already written that such a species does not grow with them, you can skip it in recipe.

It's a pity ... You can't get such a combination of flavors then. Although it may be worth trying, nobody canceled the variations!
Radushka
Yuri K, sea buckthorn gives sourness, which in sucker is not at all

Better! I'll try if I find a blooming one next season. My that last year's huge bushes are frozen
kartinka
Does sea buckthorn bloom? Such a question from a gnome-townie
Yuri K
kartinka, well, hello, but where does the berry come from without flowering?
kartinka
Well, that's kind of like, just never seen. ... maybe they are small as there is no dacha-vegetable garden - only with teas I am now getting to know plants and trees closely
Yuri K
New recipe! Who wants tea with lemon?)))

Please me!

Tricia,
kartinka
Yuri K,
Radushka
I missed it last year, and now I'm reviewing Yurin's recipes for inspiration and ...
Sea buckthorn blooms BEFORE the leaves appear.
liusia
I picked up young leaves. But I'm still going to my plantation. I found an abandoned garden, all overgrown with sea buckthorn. And I really liked the tea. So I will compare it with tea from a ripe leaf.
Radushka
Ludmila, I only use sea buckthorn leaf as an additive to mixes. His sourness is strong for me.
In this sense, sucker is preferable. BUT ... sea buckthorn can be drunk right away, and a very strong loch taste disappears only after a year (checked).
Barberry also gives sourness.

Thank you! I still can't start collecting anything myself. Mom died today, for the last month I have been with my sister almost all the time. For the fifth year she was immobilized. I'll leave a little - I'll start to do a little, collect ... But of course I missed all the most interesting things, including the spring color.
Radushka
Yuri K, my condolences
liusia
Yuri K, my condolences.
