every-cafe

its gonna too fucking hot day...the season is comming a wind compensate as coolness.

hello, its yadaka.

a few days ago, i attend "Japan Geoscience Union(JpGU)" making friends home a basecamp in Nishichiba near Makuhari.

it seems has a wise atmosphere, but its just otaku offparty of geoscience nerds. encounting friends if you go back and forth between the poster venue and the lecture venue, generating colonies here and there. young and old, they has really same twister tongue who talk to their friends. truly lol.

so, in fact, this articles main theme is not this society, but the talk of weeds growing on roads.

Do you remember the number of cup of "Tea" you have ever drank...?

follow the records, the Eastern and the Western and more over the Egyptian. the culture of extracting plant components and making beverages has been passed down and never stops from ancient time.

if you go grandmas house growing tomatos and cucambers at countryside through the sunflower field, her recommend you to drink the Mugi-cha very chilled by fridge of Showa era.

if you go some Yumekawa-cafe in Harajuku, you can see kawaii clothes instagirls up a Latte whipped of giga cream with crazy flash spray.

Oh, yes. people are crazy about "Tea".

also i love the simmered plants too, so this time, i picked up as a souvenir from Chiba

from leftside

Rescuegrass (Bromus catharticus)

Quackgrass (Elymus ciliaris)

Bentgrass (Agrostis clavata)?

scale: 3cm(soda bottle cap)

ill gonna make the tea by 3 types weeds.

first, roast in a pan to remove a water. shred the bunch roughly, and throw into a pan.

bentgrass paddy is very fine, so its better cut it into a gathered bunches. set medium heat, and swing moderately.

somehow...the rescuegrass paddy pops like popcorn and scatters outside...

after that, dunk roasted paddy into a tea strainer and pour boiling water over it.

this time, Kyubey helped me.

the color is light young leaves. the scent is like also Sen-cha.

so, happy birthday to me...

umm, good...

tastes is also Sen-cha, i wanna make more strong, so want more amount and roast paddy.

probably it cause of 3 types weeds contained, its first blend, but i feel the miscellaneous scent clearly. very good taste.

in the latter spring, the spike of cogongrass standout. it grows on a parking side, a median strips of large road, and so on. i have drank a tea of cogongrass, that scent is very good, so it suitable for biginners of weed-tea! so How about making a tea of cogongrass in this summer? if you will do that, be carefull of collecting place that dogs and cats dont pass.

recently, there seems to be some video of making tea of weeds on youtuber etc, so i cant help feeling these trendy atmosphere.

Weed grain tea, i recommend it.

its yadaka, over.
