Can you eat green tea?
Eating green tea can actually be healthier for you than just drinking the liquid brew. Why? If it’s the fact that will you eat tea? Amazing ideas......

Furthermore, you body will not assimilate all those heathy chemicals ...
That idea is based on a misconception.

Re: Can you eat green tea?
Some people will eat green tea leaves as a salad (e.x. Gyokuro w/soy sauce) after steeping & drinking them a few times.

I usually it them this way, with soja sauce or in an omelette. Found then tasty, probably a healthy habit but we should not exaggerate their health benefits.abnyc wrote:Some people will eat green tea leaves as a salad (e.x. Gyokuro w/soy sauce) after steeping & drinking them a few times.

Sometimes I will lightly fry up first flush sencha or Gyokuro leaves in a fry pan with no oil, add salt pepper and a few spices. This can be saved for latter use also. I sprinkle these crunchy leaves onto soups and salads.

Re: Can you eat green tea?
Light heat is important just enough to dry our leaves so they are crunchy

Hmmm, rare people will like to do something stranges.peony wrote: For dried tea leaves or fresh tea leaves? You know, when i was young, i ate a lot of fresh tea leaves, er....bitter and astringent. But as i grow up, i can't bear the taste any more. I never try dried green tea leaves, i think, rare people would try to eat dried grean tea leaves.
what I said is fresh leaves I think, I never tried it before.
But I ever trid fried dried leaves, It taste just like chips.

Salad is a good choice to try some fresh tea leaves.abnyc wrote: Some people will eat green tea leaves as a salad (e.x. Gyokuro w/soy sauce) after steeping & drinking them a few times.
