Very clever cooking jasmine rice in jasmine tea! I only have loose leaf jasmine, so I steeped it in a 2c measuring glass then strained it into the saucepan. Proportions are spot on. The peas I thought I had in the freezer were not there, so I chopped up some scallions. It worked. The dressing is extra special with the fresh ginger. I absolutley LOVE this dish. THE PICKY ONE said there were too many carrots. *sigh* Made for ZWT9, Mike & the Appliance Killers!
