Chai in a bone paper
A chai in a bone paper, #960 of 999. Fluorescent light, steel counter. Clover on the surface. Uncommon, roast score 167.
The recipe
6 g masala · 120 ml water · 105 ml milk · 5 min
- Crack the whole spices — cardamom, clove, a short length of cinnamon — and simmer them in water for 5 minutes before the tea goes anywhere near it.
- Add the leaf and 105 ml of milk, and bring it up to the rise three times without letting it boil over.
- Strain into the paper. Sweeten in the pan, not at the table.
- Pour from height to sink the foam, then drop the jug to the surface and wiggle a clover through the crema.
