I love Coffee, and I love Coffee Jelly. But, many people prefer Tea. If you prefer Tea, Tea Jelly is also easy to make just like Coffee Jelly. The basic ratio of Gelatine Powder to Liquid to make a jelly is 2g to 100ml. That’s the ratio I have been using for many decades. Most …
This soft and fluffy ‘Milk Tea Mousse Jelly’ is very easy to make, yet it can be a fancy dessert for your dinner party. You need to make STRONG Tea first. I used a tea bag of Ceylon Extra Strength Black Tea, but you can use your favourite Tea leaves. Chai is also suitable. Makes …
My husband bought a jar of Thickened Cream the other day, and that had a discount sticker on it. It was half the price because the ‘used by date’ was next day! He used it when he ate a piece of cake next day, but on the day after, the jar was still nearly full …
You can use your favourite tea leaves, but I like to use Earl Grey. The tea leaves should be finely ground, so tea bags would be the easiest to use. I added the contents of 2 tea bags to my ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’ that can be a fantastic cookie dough. Shortbread dough is also …
It was when I was making ‘Instant Iced Tea’, I realised that I could make Lychee Tea in the same way. I made ‘Jasmine Tea & Lychee Agar Jelly’ the other day and I saved the leftover syrup from the can of Lychees and froze it in an ice tray. Using the frozen Lychee Syrup, …
I learned how to make Iced Tea from a song in a TV ad. It was decades ago and I still can sing it. The lyrics were in Japanese and the song goes like this. ♫ To make iced tea, make the tea stronger with less hot water, add sugar, place plenty of ice cubes …
It was my daughter who introduced Lychee Tea to me. It was a very sweet but refreshing drink. I usually don’t enjoy very sweet drinks, but I enjoyed it. Fresh Lychees are not easy to find where I live, but Canned Lychees are available from many supermarket stores. I bought one from a Woolworths store. …
My ‘Coffee Panna Cotta with Kahlúa’ has become popular. Then I decided to make Tea Flavoured Panna Cotta. I used the fragrant Earl Grey Tea which I love, and 1/2 Milk and 1/2 Cream for lighter texture. The fragrance of Earl Grey in the Panna Cotta is quite subtle. You need Earl Grey Tea Syrup …
I used Earl Grey Tea, but you can use your favourite Tea. The fragrance of Tea can be easily lost when it is boiled. That happened when I made Earl Grey Tea first, then added Sugar and simmered into syrup. I recommend to make syrup first, then add Tea (bags OR leaves) to infuse. Makes …
I was a little disappointed with these ‘Earl Grey Tea Scones’. I expected the Scone would smell amazing, but the fragrance of Earl Grey Tea was not strong. It was subtle, but still beautiful. I wondered what flavour of Icing would be good for these Scones. I chose Orange. I used 100% natural juice squeezed …
It is my daughter who introduced me the delicious drink ‘Lychee Tea’. Today I made it into a jelly dessert. ‘Lychee Tea’ is a sweet drink, but I added extra Sugar for this dessert. This jelly looks slightly milky. The milkiness in tea-based jelly tends to happen due to the reaction between Tea’s tannins and …
I like coffee, and I like unsweetened strong coffee. But, when I am unwell, I hate coffee. I want to drink sweet tea. Yesterday, I made this ‘Chai’ for my son who was unwell. He never ever enjoyed any types of tea before, but it seemed he enjoyed my Chai. Makes 2 to 3 Servings …
