I grew up experiencing the delicious green tea recipes. Did you know that in China, green tea has been used in cooking as long as the tea has been used for drinking? As you have noticed, it has becoming more and more popular to incorporate it into cooking.
The good news is that most of the ingredients you will use in a green tea recipe does not require special ingredients (other than the tea itself) nor special trip to Asian supermarkets.
Eating with this wonderful leaf has a lot of benefits such as preventing cancer and heart disease, restricting the increase of blood cholesterol, controlling high blood pressure, lowering of blood sugar levels, controlling inflammation, suppressing the aging process, refreshing your body, fighting virus, and promoting weight loss.
Yes, a nice bonus of including this drink in your diet is the slowing of the absorption of carbohydrates and stimulating fat burning. The other reason is the unforgettable flavor of the food. High quality green tea has a very distinct flavor that many experience that is unique to this wonder drink.
So how do you cook with it? If the recipe calls for brewed tea, make sure that you use fresh bottled spring water when making your tea. Tap water contains chemicals which can change the taste of a brew. Pls. remember that different types of tea require different temperatures of water.
To get the best flavor and the most infusions, pick a high quality leaves and if you can afford it, choose an organic tea. Then brew your green tea with a boiling water at 160 - 170 degrees Fahrenheit. This is because it is better to steep green tea at a lower temperature for a little longer rather than forcing the tea leaves to open up and release their essence with high temperature. Doing so will result to a bitter brew.
In order to achieve the optimum health benefits of green tea, make sure to wait for 3-4 minutes of brewing time.
To use bags for cooking, add a little steaming water to the teapot and swirl the water to warm the teapot. Place 2 to 4 teabags in the pot and immediately pour 1/4 cups of boiling water over the tea bags. Cover and infuse for 2-3 minutes. This will make 1 cup of very strong tea. Then use this liquid according to the recipe.
To use loose tea leaves, first brew or steam the leaves and infuse for 5 minutes. Do not use a tea ball or strainer because you want the leaves to be fully infused.
Normally, you use dry leaves as a seasoning, the brew as a sauce, and the infused leaves as vegetables. Another way to infuse dry tea leaves is to steam them until infused before adding to the dish.
