Pan roasting Long Jing.

[tenuki]

I had some stale west lake dragonwell so figured why not and pan roasted it over medium high heat for a couple of minutes constantly flipping/shaking it. I really like the result and was wondering if this is common practice. If not it should be. I make hojicha out of my stale sencha but had never tried it on chinese greens before.

yum.

I have been considering this exactly with some WL LJ that has been sitting around tooo long. Just have not gotten around to it. I am thinking it would have a nice toasty nutty aroma and taste.

I am definitely going to give it a go!
