One bloom is one cup, and then a few more. You do not need a ceremony. You do need water that is hot but not roaring, and a vessel you can see through if the opening is the point.<\/p>\n

1. Warm the glass<\/h2>\n

Rinse the teapot or cup with hot water and tip it out. A warm vessel keeps the first steep from dropping in temperature the moment the water hits the glass, and it wakes the aroma before you have even added the tea.<\/p>\n

2. Add a single bloom<\/h2>\n

Place one whole piece in the pot or a tall glass. Do not break it apart. The tie is the thing you are about to watch. A 200\u2013300 ml vessel gives the flower room to stand.<\/p>\n

3. Pour water at 85\u201395\u00b0C<\/h2>\n

Bring water to a boil, then wait one or two minutes. That lands you around 85\u201395\u00b0C. Pour slowly down the side of the glass rather than straight onto the crown. Boiling water dulls the flowers and pushes the green tea toward bitterness.<\/p>\n

4. Wait three to five minutes<\/h2>\n

Leave it uncovered if you want to see the leaves drop and the flower rise. Cover it if you want a rounder aroma. At three minutes taste. At five, the liquor should be clear, pale gold, and fragrant. It is ready when it smells like the flower you chose, not like hot leaves.<\/p>\n

5. Drink, then resteep<\/h2>\n

A sound bloom will take three or four infusions. Add hot water again and give each later steep a little more time. The shape often looks better on the second pour than the first. When the liquor goes thin, it is finished. Compost the leaves.<\/p>\n

Store unused blooms in a sealed tin, away from sunlight, coffee, and the stove. They are dried flowers and tea. Humidity is what spoils them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
