EDITORIAL REVIEW: A Los Angeles Times Favorite New Cookbook of the Year: "Think about all the coffee-infused foods out there (cakes, ice creams, liquors and BBQ spice rubs, to just name a few). Zijderveld makes a powerful argument that we're missing out when we fail to similarly incorporate tea as a spice into our everyday routines. The book is part tea primer but also intrepid tea explorer, with recipes such as strawberry camomile jam, Moroccan mint-flavored quiche, a spinach salad featuring pecans encrusted with a masala chai maple syrup, and hurricane popcorn with Dragon Well tea  furikake. (It's like salty-sweet kettle corn, but with tea.) This book would make a great gift for both tea newcomers and those who can rhapsodize about the smoky complexities of a Lapsang souchong." Review "This book would make a great gift for both tea newcomers and those who can rhapsodize about the smoky complexities of a Lapsang souchong." (L.A. Times) "The first few pages are a wonderful primer describing each tea's history and flavor profile. The photos are lovely and the 70 all-vegetarian recipes are easy to follow." (Keven Chriss, Marin Independent Journal) About the Author Annelies Zijderveld is a food writer and creator of the literary food blog, the food poet, selected by Alimentum Journal as one of their favorite food blogs.
