Next time you make rice, try throwing in a big pinch of gyokuro leaves. Yum.
After steeping green leaves a few times, I've been known to eat a few of the leaves. But it never occured to me til now to throw them in the VitaMix as one more part of a healthy smoothie. I learn something new on this board nearly every day!

I just saw an article and thought of all of you.
There's a new Burmese restaurant in Scottsdale, AZ that serves:
"... tea-leaf salad ($8), which unites fermented green-tea leaves with cabbage, tomato, fried garlic, roasted sesame seeds, peanuts, dried peas and dried shrimp dressed with lemon juice. It tastes as pungently intriguing as it reads."
