THE PERFECT HOMEMADE ENGLISH BREAKFAST TEA RECIPE



The Perfect Homemade English Breakfast Tea Recipe image

The history of Black Tea goes back to the 1640s when Dutch Traders introduced tea to society patrons in The Hague and it became a fashionable range. Eventually, England came into the picture, and tea became an integral part of their community.

Total Time 15 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 5 minutes

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 Cup of Simmering Water and some more, if you wish to pre-heat the equipment used to brew tea.
1 TBsp 2 to 3 Grams of Loose Leaf Black Tea.
Optional Milk Lemon, Sugar, Honey, etc.

Steps:

  • Place the water in a tea kettle and heat it between 200° and 212°F.
  • Measuring the tea leaves, undoubtedly an important step. Up to two grams of black loose tea leaves can be added to make one perfect cup of tea.
  • Pre-heating the teapot or cup in which the tea will be served (optional). It is always good to do so before you pour the boiling water into it because the temperature of the water may drop down immediately if the pot or cup is not warm.

THE PERFECT CUP OF TEA-BRITISH STYLE RECIPE - FOOD.COM



The Perfect Cup of Tea-British Style Recipe - Food.com image

I had a rommate for 6 years who was from England. One day he told me jokingly that he loved this country but "we Americans just don't know how to make a proper cup of Tea" He felt it was his duty to teach me how and he was right! This is the only way I will drink my Tea now. It is really more of a method than a recipe. After careful instruction on how to prepare the proper cup of tea I asked him whether loose tea leaves make a better brew than a tea bag. "Loose tea will always taste better," he said, "but, not so much better as to outweigh the convenience of the bag. What's more important is the type of tea that you choose." "In Britain, the standard supermarket tea bag makes a much stronger and more robust brew than your American tea." He said the closest tea bags he ever found over here that approach the quality of their everyday blends are those marketed as English Breakfast. My friend always made his Tea with lowfat milk and sugar. Explaining "Most English drink tea with a little milk, but never with cream or the high-fat milk that Americans put in their coffee. Low-fat milk is a much better choice. "Make sure you use white sugar. Brown sugar might be OK in coffee, but somehow it never tastes right in tea. As for putting honey in tea, if you tried to do that in Britain, you'd be laughed out of the tea shop." Many thanks to Chris for showing me how to make the perfect cup of tea!

Total Time 3 minutes

Prep Time 1 minutes

Cook Time 2 minutes

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 twining's english breakfast tea bag
boiling water
1 teaspoon low-fat milk (or to taste)
1 teaspoon sugar (or to taste)

Steps:

  • First, you have to boil the water - don't just heat it, boil it. Second, add the boiling water to the tea bag, not the other way round. - putting the water in the cup and adding the bag to it - is a recipe for disaster. Unless the water is at boiling point when it makes contact with the tea, the tea will never properly brew.
  • Make sure the cup or pot is nice and hot before you start. If necessary, rinse it out with near-boiling water. And keep it covered while the tea is brewing.
  • Leave the bag in the water for at least two minutes - longer if you like your tea strong. And for goodness sake, resist the temptation to dunk. Just leave the bag alone until the drink is ready! Add milk and sugar to taste.

THE BEST AND WORST ENGLISH BREAKFAST TEA | MYRECIPES
13/02/2018 · Teapigs English Breakfast Tea ($9 for 15 sachets) With a slightly odd toasted grass scent, this Teapigs tea smelled rich. Unfortunately, the taste doesn't deliver: It's tannin-heavy and bitter in a way that isn't balanced with any of the attempts at toasted or sweet flavors. EC: message-editor%2F1516832371012-tea-bag.
