Parsley Tea
Though fresh parsley often
shows up as a garnish in soup or casseroles, it does have numerous health
benefits. Not only is it an excellent source of vitamins A and K, parsley also
supplies small amounts of potassium, iron and fibre. Besides using it as a
flavourful herb in your meals, you may use it to make a steaming hot cup of tea
that tastes delicious and is good for you. The parsley will infuse the tea with
the same nutrients you'd get if you ate it raw.
Method:
- Boil water in an Electric Jug
- Place several torn
parsley leaves in a Plunger
- Leave the water
and parsley to steep for 5 minutes
- Pour the Parsley Tea into a mug and enjoy once it reaches a pleasant temperature
- Discard parsley
leaves into a bag for composting.
Things You Will
Need
- Water
- Electric Jug
- Plunger
- Fresh parsley
- Mugs
- Knife and cutting board(to cut the lemon)
- Lemon
- Honey
·
Let the parsley
steep for a longer amount of time if you want a stronger tasting tea. Because
parsley leaves can taste bitter, however, you might want to sweeten your tea
with a small drizzle of honey. A squirt of lemon juice might improve the
flavor, as well.
Garden Salad and Dressing
- Salad was made using sliced snow peas and
chives from the garden, plus rocket, parsley, chopped cherry tomatoes, torn iceberg
lettuce, and sliced beans

crushed garlic and a dollop of honey
