Green Tea: How to Brew

image

METHOD

Many people tend to brew the delicate green tea at higher temperatures than is advisable.  For best results, steep 1 heaping tsp of loose green tea leaves in 1 cup of water warmed to 145 degrees.  Steep for 4-5 minutes.  Often, higher quality tea is steeped in minimally warmed water 2 or 3 times in order to bloom the delicate, complex flavor.
