Tea Bag Origin III

Photo SRC: www.bokus.com/bok/9781295375875/the-coffee-public-house-news-and-temperance-hotel-journal-primary-source-edition/
According to writings found in The Coffee Public- house News And Temperance Hotel Journal, twelve years before The Century Cook Book was published and twenty-one years before Thomas Sullivan was distributing silk tea bags, the use of a bag to make tea was practiced since at least 1883. Found in the Journal on page 60 are descriptions of how to best make tea. In terms of the first tea bag, the Journal read as follows.
To make a good tea in quantities of a few gallons at a time, use a well-tinned kettle similar to the coffee kettle, but with a tap at the bottom; place the tea in a muslin or other bag large enough to give ample space for the swelling of the tea-leaves, and with a long string, which is to be tied round the neck of the bag to prevent escape of the leaves. When the water is boiling vigorously, place the bag in the kettle, moving it round in the water, and tying the end of the string to the handle outside.

Tea bags are still in use today. It was not until recently tea bags found their favorite companion, t-sleeve®. Read about the amazing tea bag friend, t-sleeve® below.
This handy design starts as a carrying pouch for your favorite tea bag and package sweeteners. Take it with you on the go to work, a restaurant or meeting a friend for a cup of tea. T-Sleeve® then becomes a tea bag squeezer when you steep your tea. After you have steeped the tea, simply pull the tea bag up into the t-sleeve®, fold and squeeze the residual liquid out, and then discard. There’s no mess, no wet fingers and no drippy tea bag. T-Sleeve® is made of recyclable and compostable materials, so simply dispose of the t-sleeve® and tea bag into the garbage or compost container. T-Sleeve® will compost, so you can feel good about making a difference in the environment.

Tea Bag Origin II

Here we look at another Tea Bag Origin. This tea bag origin comes from a thorough cook book. The Century Cook Book by Mary Ronald was published in 1895, almost 10 years before Thomas Sullivan accidentally created silk tea bags for tea distribution purposes. The text in the beverage section of this book explains a way of using a bag to assist in making a large amount of tea, could Mary Ronald be the first to publicly announce the concept of a tea bag? On page 550 of The Century Cook Book in the Beverages section it reads as follows.
The tea-bag.
Where a quantity of tea is to be used, as at receptions, it is well to put the tea into a swiss muslin bag, using enough to make a very strong infusion. Place the bag in the scalded pot; add the boiling water; after five minutes remove the bag.

Tea bags are still in use today. It was not until recently tea bags found their favorite companion, t-sleeve®. Read about the amazing tea bag friend, t-sleeve® below.
This handy design starts as a carrying pouch for your favorite tea bag and package sweeteners. Take it with you on the go to work, a restaurant or meeting a friend for a cup of tea. T-Sleeve® then becomes a tea bag squeezer when you steep your tea. After you have steeped the tea, simply pull the tea bag up into the t-sleeve®, fold and squeeze the residual liquid out, and then discard. There’s no mess, no wet fingers and no drippy tea bag. T-Sleeve® is made of recyclable and compostable materials, so simply dispose of the t-sleeve® and tea bag into the garbage or compost container. T-Sleeve® will compost, so you can feel good about making a difference in the environment.

Teabag Origin I

There is a surprisingly large amount of controversy about who invented the first teabag and the reasoning for that is because it was an accident. Thomas Sullivan was a New York tea merchant who marketed the loose leaf tea in a new way in 1904. He sold his loose leaf tea in hand sewn silk bags, and when the customers were ready to use the tea it was thought that the customer would remove the tea from the silk bag and prepare the cup of tea as normal (loose leaf style at the time). The consumers were the real cause for the tea bag phenomenon, they found it easier to put the silk bag in the hot water rather than dealing with the loose tea.


Tea bags are still in use today. It was not until recently tea bags found their favorite companion, t-sleeve®. Read about the amazing tea bag friend, t-sleeve® below.
This handy design starts as a carrying pouch for your favorite tea bag and package sweeteners. Take it with you on the go to work, a restaurant or meeting a friend for a cup of tea.

Chinese Marbled Tea Eggs


With the 2015 New Year right around the corner it is time to start thinking about how you are going to celebrate. The Chinese New Year for 2015 is not until Thursday, February 19th but if you want to celebrate New Years on January 1st Chinese style try making these Marbled Tea Eggs. In Northern China these Marbled Tea Eggs are symbolic of golden nuggets for the Chinese New Year Feast. If you want to celebrate the year of the Sheep with these Chinese Marbled Tea Eggs grab your directions below. Visit www.tsleeve.com for more information on t-sleeve® to help make your tea mess free.
Ingredients:
6 eggs3/4 cup soy sauce2 star anise2 tablespoons black tea (or 2 tea bags)1 cinnamon stick1 teaspoon sugar1 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorn (optional)2 strips dried tangerine or mandarin orange peel (optional)Directions:
Gently place the eggs in a medium pot and fill with water to cover the eggs by 1-inch. Bring the pot to a boil, lower the heat and let simmer for 3 minutes. Remove the eggs (leaving the water in the pot) and let cool under running cool water. Using the back of the teaspoon, gently tap the eggshell to crack the shell all over. The more you tap, the more intricate the design. Do this with a delicate hand to keep the shell intact. To the same pot with the boiling water, return the eggs and add in the remaining ingredients. Bring the mixture to a boil and immediately turn the heat to low. Simmer for 40 minutes, cover with lid and let eggs steep for a few hours to overnight. The longer you steep, the more flavorful and deeply marbled the tea eggs will be. In the photos above, I steeped for 5 hours. Mom likes to steep overnight.

It doesn’t matter whether the small garden is in a tea cup on my window sill, an old box on my porch, a pot on the deck, a pallet or even a little courtyard or small patio in my backyard. I just love being creative with plants in small spaces! I am not a plant or garden expert at all, it is just something I find therapeutic and fun!

Teacup Treats

While tea may be sweet it is not commonly served to children. Here is a fun way to share the tea party experience with the little ones, Teacup Treats. These Teacup Treats are cute and sweet to eat for kids and adults. Not only can these Teacup Treat provide tons of fun while playing and eating them, they are also a fantastic project to do with the kids or grandchildren. They will enjoy making and eating these as will you. Follow the instructions below to make these edible cups of tea.

Ingredients:
  •     Vanilla sandwich cookie wafers
  •     Reese's Miniature Peanut Butter Cups
  •     Ice cream sugar cones (top 1-1/2 inch)
  •     Circle pretzels (found in Chex Mix Sweet 'n Salty Honey Nut mix)
  •     Chocolate frosting (chocolate pudding, chocolate ganache, etc.)
  •     Chocolate or vanilla candy melts
Instructions:
  1. Cut the sugar cones to 1-1/2 inches. To avoid breaking them, dip the bottoms in warm water for 20 seconds. Using a serrated knife, trim off where the wet area meets the dry. Allow these to dry completely before assembling.
  2. Separate the cookie wafers and clean off filling.
  3. Trim off one small piece of the circle pretzels to create two handle points.
  4. Melt two ounces of chocolate or vanilla candy melts in a zip-top bag in the microwave (twice for 30 seconds usually does the trick).
  5. Snip off the corner of the zip-top bag and dab a little candy melt in the center of the cookie wafers.
  6. Place unwrapped Reese's Miniature Peanut Butter Cups on top of the candy melt on the cookie wafers.
  7. Place the cut ice cream cones on top of the Reese's cups.
  8. Pipe more of the candy melt inside the ice cream cones, where the edge meets the Reese's cup.
  9. Pipe frosting, pudding or ganache inside the ice cream cones.
  10. Add a dab of candy melt to the cut off edges of the circle pretzels and attach them to the sides of the ice cream cones. You may need to hold them in place for a few seconds until the candy melt holds firmly and stays in place.

The Mission of t-sleeve®


First of all the purpose to a t-sleeve® is to assist in the preparation of bagged tea while on the go. It is quite easy to make a cup of tea at home, but if you have ever tried to prepare bagged tea while out and about you already know finding your sugar, or keeping that string from falling in can be more difficult then it sounds. This handy t-sleeve® has the capability to store your preferred sugar and flavor of tea in an easy to find 'sleeve'. Then when you go to use the t-sleeve® the tea-string goes through a slot to help prevent a tea soaked sting and wet fingers from having to retrieve it. Afterwards the entire sleeve serves as a storage for your garbage until you are conveniently located to proper place of disposal. Can you hear how this t-sleeve® has accommodated for many annoying hassles of enjoying a simple cup of tea when you're out and about? Read the official mission statement from the company that provides you with t-sleeve® below.
"To provide the ultimate mess-free and convenient tea drinking experience for tea drinkers, with a disposable, recyclable and eco-friendly alternative to spoons or fingers, that can be used anytime and anywhere. T-sleeve®ultimate goal is to build a large, financially lucrative business, which in turn will allow us to create a foundation that gives 10% of the net profits from t-sleeve® to help foster children locally and nationally."

Tea: A 4,000 Year Old Beverage


This poster of the Alchemy Of Tea was designed by Sweetooth. This poster illustrates the course of how Traditional teas started and where they ended up. The top shows the original type of tea such as black, green, white or oolong. The Second level displays the added ingredient(s) to create the third level down which shows traditional tea prepared. These transitions keep happening, as you know teas keep evolving with new ways of preparing or combining them to create something new out of something 4,000 years old, tea. Read more about what the different cups in the illustration represent below.
To show the proper serving vessels for these various recipes, the group also illustrated traditional tea sets, like the floral-printed bone china of Britain, India's ornate brass sets, and the Chinese Yixing clay teapot, the first invented during the Song Dynasty. The full breadth of their research is available on their website, and offers insights into a drink that, as legend has it, was first discovered in the Yunnan province of China in 2737 B.C., when Emperor Shen Nong was boiling water and the leaves of a tea plant fell into his pot.

The t-sleeve® is a great way to enjoy your favorite tea no matter where you are, learn more about this at: www.tsleeve.com/ and learn about the benefits of Matcha Green Tea below.
Anti-aging.Matcha tea is loaded with catechins which are the most potent and beneficial antioxidants. One specific catechin called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) makes up 60% of the catechins in Matcha Green Tea. A 2003 study found that matcha tea had an extremely high EGCG content, “at least three times higher than the largest  literature value for other green teas”. Matcha powder contains 137 times more antioxidants than regular green tea.
Fights Cancer.In a 2008 study done by researchers at the University of Mississippi, consuming EGCG (antioxidants found in matcha green
tea) significantly inhibits breast tumor growth in female mice.
Boosts the immune system.Matcha tea has extremely high levels of polyphenols, catechins, flavonoids and antioxidants that help improve the body’s defense system against bacteria and viruses. A recent study in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences concluded that drinking matcha everyday greatly enhanced the overall response of the immune system.
Helps with Bad Breath.Catechin, an amino acid in matcha tea, exhibits strong  antibacterial properties. They help to protect
your tooth enamel and fight germs and bacterias to improve bad breath. You can use it as a mouthwash or  mix it with your toothpaste before
brushing your teeth.
Helps Heal wounds Faster.Chlorophyll found in matcha aids in wound-healing and also exerts  anti-inflammatory actions.
