Chinese Tea in Cuisine
This week we also looked at the use of tea in Chinese cuisine with a unique trip to Le Passage Mohkan Shan, in China Zhejiang Province, a family-run former tea plantation in a hill station about two hours from Shanghai.
Now home to a luxury hotel, we met with the family behind the project and heard about how the restaurant on site is now making use of tea in a number of their dishes.
