EAST AFRICAN CARDAMOM TEA

East African Cardamom Tea image

I just tried this tea and it was lovely with Earl Grey. Not liking the idea of ground cardamom in tea I switched the recipe to using the full pods and steeped them with my tea leaves. Originally posted for ZWT7, Africa. Modified from, www.congocookbook.com.

Categories Somalia Tea Ginger Cardamom Breakfast Milk/Cream

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 (1-inch) piece ginger
2 (2-inch) pieces cinnamon stick
5 green cardamom pods
5 whole cloves
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 cups cold water
3 tablespoons loose black tea (or 4 black tea bags)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar, plus more as needed
2 cups whole milk

Steps:

Crush the ginger with the bottom of a heavy pot or the blunt edge of a knife and set aside. Place the cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and peppercorns in a mortar and crush with a pestle until coarsely ground (or crush on a countertop or on a cutting board with the bottom of a heavy pot). Transfer the spices to a medium saucepan set over medium heat and cook, stirring, until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the ginger, water, tea, and sugar and increase the heat to high. Once bubbles form around the edge, immediately reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the milk and let it cook for just 1 minute to warm the milk, then turn off the heat. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a teapot, pitcher, or straight into tea mugs. Serve immediately while hot and add more sugar to taste if you'd like.

When feeling down make this warming tea Drink hot with a little milk twice a day to ward off coughs and colds. In the Middle East and Turkey, green cardamom powder is used as a spice for sweet dishes as well as traditional flavouring. In Arabic, cardamom is called al-Hayl.
