Description
Preparation
Pu Erh can be prepared Gong Fu Cha style, which is a Chinese method that uses a very small teapot, but brews the tea 6-10 times or more, depending on the quality of the tea.
Use 1 tsp. tea per cup.
Pour some boiling water, around 95 degrees, on the tea leaves to rinse for a few seconds and release the flavours.
This water is discarded.
Pour another round of boiling water over the leaves and let them steep for 4-5 minutes.
Pour the finished tea into a preheated teapot.
As the tea leaves give best results by floating freely, you can use a spacious strainer in the preheated teapot or pour the tea into a preheated teapot.
