Maybe a bit of a different use, but a Japanese friend of mine said she puts it on a hot skillet after cooking fish to remove the fish odor.

Not sure yet. Only time will tell What I did was I put the used leaves on paper towel and left them out to dry overnight. After that, I ground the dried leaves with mortar and pestle into fine powder, then mixed that into fresh soil. I used it on a camellia sinensis plant, which is acid-loving, so hopefully that won't kill it off.margauxmorgan wrote:good one did it worked?Shimakaze wrote:Another idea: What about using tea leaves as compost?

Nothing wrong with a few banned-in-the-US pesticides in my diet...Chip wrote:Wellll, seriously, I would avoid eating Brazilian sencha or gyo leaves, period. Pesticide laws, etc. are quite different in SA countries.
