What I like about your cooking style from all channels is the quietness, focus, and just listening to the voice of the things boiling, frying, etc. Perfect is simple. Thank you very much.
Yorkshire Gold...Yes. I go for 5 minutes. I remove the bag, add honey and stir. Honey seems to enhance the sweetness and character much better than sugar. I use a small splash of non-dairy half and half. Stir again. It comes out a slightly dark caramel color. Perfect!!
@@Daniel-dj7fh I used Raw Unfiltered. If it's not a dark amber, don't use it. The much lighter gold colored honeys are usually diluted and low quality.
@@beigemachine549 I mean there are different types of honey, so darker doesn't nescessarily mean better. So more a bees honey than honey won from flowers directly (what ever they're trying to market from that lol)
I like a big mug with 2 teabags steeped for 3 minutes..stir, squeeze and then once bags are removed I add just a splash of milk. I like my tea same as my men, nice and strong.
The concept of modern tea was originally introduced to India by the British during the colonization period in an attempt to overthrow the Chinese monopoly over the production. And we sorta blended it with our traditional health drinks. It's impossible to even imagine India without the ‘chai’ esp, north India. The recipe is easy. For a cup, we generally boil a little over half cup water, black tea leaves(3/4 tsp), brown sugar(1tsp,tbh it depends), small piece of ginger, a piece of cardamom, pinch of cinnamon, a crushed peice of clove and 2-3 crushed black peppers. The water is boiled, and half a cup milk is added while boiling (make sure to boil it. heating won't work). Adding tulsi (fresh basil) makes it perfect. The tea works wonders when it comes to fever, flu and tracheal blockage. You can replace the loose tea with black tea bag. The proportions may vary acc to your preference, but each and every ingredient used has a purpose. It's a great medicinal drink, and it tastes perfect. P. S. I have made tea the way you've described and it turned out to be perfect. Thank you for sharing ‹3
No offense but just for the complementary part, British tea is technical from China if u look deeper in this interesting history, it was just planted in India, all the planting and making process are leading by three Chinese tea master who were carried there by an English person who has been a tea technical spy and stay in China for two three years i think . All the red tea was literally two variation of Chinese Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong and Jin Jun mei from WuYi Mountain
I've never actually microwaved a cup of water to boil it so I cant answer that sorry, I think kettles are a more common appliance in the UK as opposed to overseas (I don't think i've met anyone who lives in the UK that doesn't actually own one) - but hey, you've got to do what you've got to do for a cup of tea! Make it however you like :)
Montvale Bakes electric kettles are extremely uncommon here in the states. So uncommon I’ve never actually seen one in person lol. It’s rare for me to even see a stovetop kettle here, I guess everybody just drinks coffee. Most of the time when I’m with a friend and we make tea they just microwave the water, I still cringe every time. I did have a friend whose parents used a Zojirushi water boiler but her parents were immigrants from Laos, where they only drink hot water I think.
Yeah I don't understand what's wrong with boiling the water in the microwave before pouring the water over the tea. It's gonna taste the same because hot water is hot water. I mean putting the tea bag in before microwaving it might change the taste but other than that idk why y'all are so appalled by microwaved water.
@@what_2046 particle agitation is not the same in water boiled in a kettle and in water boiled on a microwave. That might interfere with the way the infusion works. But, to be honest, you'd have to be a purist to be that bothered by the difference that makes.

You should. I bet you'll love it. I am Spanish and here tea is not as popular as coffee (I love both, though). But after living in England for some months I fell in love with this way of having tea.
@@bourbon369 in general, adding milk to teas that are high in tannins such as black tea will significantly smooth out the brew. The tannins lead to bitterness and also astringency, which is a drying sensation on the palate. Milk binds to the tannins and also adds a little bit of natural sweetness, evening out the flavour.
In India, i/ many people usually boil the milk and then add the tea material to make the tea look creamy and layers of the milk float above. Most of the tea shops in locality follow this kinda procedure.
Very interesting. I'm trying to learn what ways are best for brewing, and it always seems to come into dispute whether the tea bag goes into the cup before or after the boiling water. Is there something to that?
In England we use whole, semi-skimmed or skimmed milk. Most people use whole or semi-skimmed. Not sure what percentage that equates to sorry, I assume you’re from North America.
I think ppl over complicate things this vidio shows ppl how to make a cup of tea use it it's the best video iv seen on RUclips if u want slugger put it in if not done I like mine mor strong it's fine how u want it grate vidio going to put the kettle on from a brit
Teas often have names to accompany them. Bergamot is Earl Gray. Smoke is Lapsang Souchong. Muscatel is Darjeeling. The high grown stuff is Ceylon. Gunpoder is genmaicha etc. Assam is often called the malty one, Keemun is called the orchard tea. These are the specialties. Afternoon blend was the name used for'orange pekoe' often in England although the former is used in Canada/US more although its the same tea and an ambery color English Breakfast was give the name builders brew in casual talk and had a bad rep among tea specialists. There is a reason for this. Modern English Breakfast teabags use the lowest grades of Assam and keep the Assam content minimal while using dejected African teadust to fill up the rest of the bags. Kenya and Tanzania are beginning to produce some higher quality green and orthodox mountain black tea, although lots of other African countries turn out mill dust used for filling the bags. Yorkshire tea makes a higher quality version of something like an English Breakfast. With Builders Brew having a cheap, bad name we have to solve the problem. Relaunch a good affordable English Breakfast for everyday use. Yorkshire, considered above an economy Builders Brew, launches the way again
Well I’m American and drink tea very English-y in that my family or anyone else around us only drink cold sweet tea the American way and I drink hot tea. I have a whistling tea kettle and drink a cup of tea almost daily sometimes several times a day. However I use just sugar in mine and calorie free sugar because I’m weight conscious lol. Sometimes when I’m splurging I’ll dip dark chocolate Milano cookies (er um biscuits) in my tea lol
Wow I do the same thing lol. But I feel like iced tea is more of a southern thing because the weather down there is warmer so drinking a hot cup of tea might increase the body temperature and make it uncomfortable (unless you have a fan or A.C of course). I'm from the north so I drink both hot and cold but mainly hot tea.
thanks for hearting my comment to watch this was my task i had to write instructions on how to make a cup of tea and this was reccomended and i get why now
I guess we all do it differently. I stir after I put the bag in...it's a more even infusion that way. I also steep for 5 minutes. 3 minutes isn't long enough for a deep brown/amber color, and Yorkshire Tea resists bitterness with longer steeping. It's a good blend. The tea in the video looks a bit too light to me after the milk is added also....understeeped. To each their own.
Good tip! I like a little extra milk in my tea, my partner on the other hand likes his tea to stew longer with a lot less milk (you could stand a teaspoon in it haha ) - Thanks for watching the video.
Ceylon Lovers Leap leaf long leaf black is a much better quality tea than Yorkshire although it much more expensive. Yorkshire tea is a cheap commercial blended tea although the best of those ones if you want an inexpensive tea to run on
Yorkshire is OK its just that it is heavily blended broken leaf grades like all the commercial teas though it sits over a lot of other ones. It is above Tetleys and most likely PG Tips and Typhoo and that stuff. It also cannot be too bad because even though you would never assume the Royal Family to drink cheap quality stuff (most settle for Keemun and estate Ceylon/Darjeeling the RF did give the approval sign to Yorkshire tea, so it actually has to be OK

Beautifully presented 👏🏼
Should we add the warm milk or room temperature normal milk?
Exactly what I do, only except I normally warm up my mug a bit. Just a bit milk will do the magic. Love the cuppa all time!
There is just something about a good cup of tea.
Nothing can lift you mood like a good cuppa tea!
I prefer boiling water with loose tea leaves. The flavour is stronger I feel.
nice, thanks for sharing, i love english tea with milk
I really want to try English tea. I can't drink piping hot cocoa or coffee, so is it proper to let the tea cool a bit before sipping?
Drink it however you like! 😊
a little more dash of milk from the fridge should cool it down faster
🍅 nooo too milky and there’s no point you drown out the flavour of the tea!.
That's actually what the milk is for!
Finally! The perfect video on how to make the perfect cup of tea.
Ah here it is again, my favorite video while having a cup of tea, a few quiet moments of zen.
Which kind of milk do you use?
Semi- skimmed for me, but you could use whole or skimmed milk. The brand used in this video is cravendale whole fat milk
@@MontvaleBakes that milk sweet or not
Not sweet
@@MontvaleBakes The purpose of adding milk is to make the tea taste sweet, if you use unsweetened milk, why add it?

Do u not warm the milk?
You can warm the milk! But most people use cold milk here. Not sure why? Maybe to bring it down in temperature a litttle?

milk ruins the flavor of the tea. a lil sugar and bam perfect cup wit OUT milk

The milk is needed for most people in those types of black tea. Cuts the astringency and mellows it out.
