Fennel and Cumin Tea
Tisane steeped in fennel, cumin seeds, and fresh ginger
Equipment
- Stovetop
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 tsp fennel seeds
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tbsp ginger peeled and sliced
- 1 tsp honey
Instructions
- Take a sauce pot or glass pot and boil the water.
- When the water boils, add the fennel seeds, cumin seeds, and ginger slices.
- Simmer for 10 minutes and then strain the tea into a cup. Add honey if you like, to sweeten the tea naturally.
Notes
- Teas and tisanes need time for the ingredients to steep in the water. Therefore, boiling the water prior to adding all the ingredients helps.
- Fennel tisane tastes refreshing by itself; adding honey is merely optional.
- A glass pot works well for making tisanes.
- Ginger must be either the fresh one or the dried ginger which is fresh. Fresh ginger are available at the Ranch 99 market.
