Topic: lapsang souchong

Tried the brewing as well SS but for me didn't get the flavour i was looking for, there was flavour but not enough, because of the high heat that the chicken is cooked with under the grill the tea leaves just singe away to little black bits of flavour, the marinade itself gets the strong flavour.
Give it a go

That was sort of what was worrying me as I'm not sure what the health effects will be of eating carbonised tea leaves. I'll probably give it a go once though just out of curiosity.

If it's a smokey flavour your after try Jeeves and Jericho 'smokey Russian caravan' which contains lapsang souchong. All their teas smell absolutely mind blowing.

Anyone know how to make smoked water?
