(Family Features) Tea has been enjoyed as a beverage for thousands of years. But more recently, tea has worked its way into the kitchen as a favorite ingredient of chefs, bakers and even mixologists. Sweet and grassy, light and fruity, smoky and complex - teas have a wide variety of flavor notes that complement many foods and give them a unique twist. In these recipes, Lauren Keating, the blogger behind www.Healthy-Delicious.com, has spiced up salmon by smoking it with Chai and Wild Sweet Orange teas, and pairing it with an aromatic vegetable gratin dish made with Earl Grey. And master mixologist Lucy Brennan, author of "Hip Sips: Modern Cocktails to Raise Your Spirits" and owner of Portland, Ore., based restaurant and lounge, mint/820, shows how Tazo Passion tea is the perfect ingredient to round out this Passionate Sunset cocktail. The wide selection of blends available from tea brands such as Tazo Tea, which sources tea and botanicals from more than 29 countries around the world, makes it easy to add new flavor twists to food and drink recipes. Here are some tips for enjoying tea as a drink and a recipe ingredient: * To brew the perfect cup of tea, pour 8 fluid ounces of fresh water, just off of a boil, over 1 filterbag. For green and white teas, steep for 3 minutes. For black teas and herbal infusions, steep for 5 minutes. * To add a touch of exotic flavor without adding oil or sodium, try substituting freshly brewed tea for water in your favorite recipes * Use dry or brewed tea as a rub or marinade for meats, fish or poultry. Before cooking, try rubbing salmon with fruity herbal infusions and top with fresh lemon slices; or marinate chicken in orange tea and fresh cranberry sauce. Setting the table with tea: * Awaken your palate with tea: Mix a bit of a brewed herbal infusion into your favorite granita, offering a delightful mix of refreshing fruit and flavorful tea. * Warm up from the inside out: Mint tea with 1 teaspoon of honey and a drop of lemon can soothe a sore throat or stuffy nose, while warming chilled hands. * Spice up a classic: Take one part vanilla liqueur and one part chai tea. Shake over ice and strain to indulge in a Chai Mar"tea"ni. Back to Easy Beverage Recipes |
