Found this recipe in Martha Stewart Living Magazine and as I love the taste of ginger decided to try it. Lovely, soothing tea with the fresh taste of ginger and spices of cardamom and fennel. Good for after a heavy dinner or stressful day. Ingredients:
4 1/2 teaspoons cardamom pods, crushed |
4 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds |
5 cups water |
1 piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced in 1/4 inch thick (about 3/4 cup) |
1 tablespoon honey |
1/3 cup fresh mint leaves, plus sprigs for garnish |
Directions:
1. Toast cardomom and fennel in a saucepan over medium-high heat for 1 minute.
2. Add water and ginger.
3. Reduce heat and simmer until it reaches the desired strength, 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and stir in honey and mint leaves.
5. Let stand for 5 minutes.
6. Strain into mugs and garnish with mint.
