Using Teas in Your Food
Don’t let your teas go to waste. Every so often we buy quality loose leaf teas, only to drink them for a week and then we forget about them. If not kept properly, they might just get mouldy, which is a waste. Here at Tea Bird Tea we are serious about wasting our resources, that equally goes with our teas too.
Want to get more out of your teas? Here is one recipe that uses loose leaves, so you can eat them when you get bored of drinking them.
Green Tea Salt
Makes: A jar of Green Tea Salt
Use: Sprinkle on fruits/ appetizers to add depth in flavour
Ingredients: 3 Tablespoons of Green Tea Tea Bird Tea
1 Tablespoons of Celtic Salt/ Kosher Salt/ Table Salt
