ingredients
directions
- Boil the water and pour about 2 cups into the teapot. (A teapot with a good buildup of brown tannin on the inside makes the best tea).
- Let the water heat up the teapot while you reboil the kettle.
- Pour off the heating water from the teapot, add the tea leaves and then pour the freshly boiled water on the tealeaves. This has to be done quickly and as soon as the water comes to the boil. Once it has stopped boiling, it doesn't make as good tea.
- Let the tea steep for at least five minutes. Cover the teapot with a tea cosy if you have one.
- Put a teaspoon of condensed milk in each cup (bone china cups are best) and pour the tea on top. Stir (or don't if you want a sticky delight at the end of your tea) and enjoy.
