Orange Apple Tea

This month, it has been really wet and cold.  Been raining practically daily.  Added a variety to the apple tea that I started to drink when I had a very bad cough after my trip.  A bug that I caught on the tour bus in Chengdu.

This Orange Apple Tea is really good.  

Learning: I did not manage to get the orange to caramelise as I was afraid that I might burn the tea.  So next round, I will turn down the heat and let it have more time to caramelise.

Overall, it is not a strong tea and good to serve as a beverage for a party as well.

Enjoy!

Honey Butter Toast

Tried out this Honey Butter Toast and we really enjoyed it.  It reminds me of a very popular Shibuya toast many years ago.  

Getting thick-cut slice of toast is hard to find here so was lucky to have a friend who gifted me an uncut block of bread.

Anyway with the remaining bread, I will turn it into Shibuya Toast for our dessert.

Learning: The toast turned out great.  It is sweet with a hint of honey.  Has a good crust and a chewy texture.

What you need:

4 slices of white bread

60g salted butter

60g brown sugar

50g honey

Method:

Dissolved butter and add in the brown sugar and honey.  Stir until well combined.

Spread onto the bread on all sides.

Bake for 180 deg for 15 mins, flipped and continued to bake until golden.

Let it rest individually on a rack until the crust starts to harden.

Enjoy!
