Like Water for Tea

I just consumed a pot of Bao Zhong Oolong, from Mem Tea Imports in Boston, and so I figure it is time to tea up a recent edition of the Kojo Nnamdi show dedicated to the topic of tea. The deal with tea is pretty much the same as with coffee: freshness, quality water, and the right pour (in the case of tea, it’s about steeping time). Did you know you could use tea as a base for soup or other dishes? What else have you discovered about tea?
