According
to the green tea ceremony ("sen
cha do"), chill green tea
which is brewed stronger taste than
usual with ice cubes and make tea
drops. Pour it into a bowl swiftly.
This is called "kori demae".
(This is normally called "hira
demae" in the tea ceremony.)
This dish is simple modification
of "otemae" that
means the process of making green
tea. You should mention the fresh
color and feel the effect to satisfy
your thirsty.
Depending on
the quality of water, the aroma
and the flavor of tea will be varied.
When the tap water is used, it needs
attentive cookery to use the skim
of the water which is kept in a
pot overnight. Furthermore, if it
takes long time to chill, the color
of hot green tea would be changed.
It is necessary to chill it swiftly.
Using tea bag only for water use,
you can cook real cold tea ("rei
cha") though it takes a
long time.
Spaghetti cooking,
which has so lightly taste with
olive oil, leads to overeat frequently.
If the tea leaves is used for the
cookery and served with green tea,
the effect in green tea will recover
the indigestion in the stomach. |
