Anyone who would say no to a nice hot cup of Saturn is deranged.

It’s only tea if it’s made from the tea region of the plant. Anything else is sparkling suspension

Crude oil is texas tea, but mac and cheese requires milk not water.
Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 10 months ago
I think I’ve seen mac and cheese cups that ask for hot water.
nbailey@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
Do you people not put milk in your crude oil? I find it suits the subtle bitterness of Alberta tar to give it a wonderful but subtle aftertaste.
trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 10 months ago
but mac and cheese requires milk not water.
So does masala chai.

Tea preparation rebels are not constrained by shallow concepts like ‘being edible’
ZMoney@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Saturn is a mixture of gases. It has a solid rocky/hydrogen core surrounded by a layer of liquid hydrogen/helium. You could argue that this intermediate liquid layer might have solid particulates, and this would agree with the definition, but overall Saturn is too complicated to be classified this way. A better extreme example would be something like Earth’s oceans.
WayNKG@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
You’re response sounds like what an AI would say when you try to be sarcastic with it.
ZMoney@lemmy.world 10 months ago
An AI would give a generic definition of Saturn and a generic definition of tea and then say something irrelevant like “scientists disagree about the exact composition of Saturn’s core”

As miso soup enjoyer i can confirm it’s tea, because it’s relaxing & delicious

I’m sorry, but BOILING? You do not BOIL tea leaves unless you are an absolute heathen. You may pour just-off-the-stove, formerly boiling water over black tea leaves, making the tea about 210 degrees Fahrenheit. But you do NOT put allow water with tea leaves in it to BOIL unless you are seriously deranged.
Routhinator@startrek.website 10 months ago
Yeah this. Biggest mistake most people that hate tea make is they dont bother learning that tea has specific temps for brewing depending on the leaves and that pouring boiling water off the stove on it will make most teas bitter.
Many teas are best at 85-90C, just off the boil.

Coffee is the best tea

This is cool. Why would I want this?

I’ve never used it, but the idea is that nutrient uptake will be faster than if someone just dressed the top of the soil with compost. The extra aerobic bacteria could also be beneficial.
MagicPterodactyl@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
For liquid fertilizer, but seems silly when you can get the same results but just throwing the compost in the water and stirring it around, letting the solids sink to the bottom.
Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 10 months ago
This is the way
ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 10 months ago
except… with “pure” tea you don’t consume the original ingredient. (eating tea leaves or coffee grounds? eeww.)
pho, etc you do. ergo, not tea.
tiredofsametab@kbin.run 10 months ago
Pho is just animal oil/juice suspended. Everything else is like milk, honey, lemon, sugar, etc. that people do consume in tea.
ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 10 months ago
what about the rice noodles, chicken, mushrooms, etc etc.? come on.
Pacattack57@lemmy.world 10 months ago
In that instance a clogged gutter is still tea
Venator@lemmy.nz 10 months ago
Might be cleaner than some people’s tea pots… 😅
Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Only the juice collected from the underside of the clogged gutter is the tea.
ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
What about stock? Take some bones, spices, and vegetables; boil them in water; and strain out all the solids. You’re left with nothing but a flavored liquid.
Venator@lemmy.nz 10 months ago
Now you’ve got a stew going!
ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 10 months ago
sure, stock is tea. the base of pho is tea, but pho isn’t pho until you at least put some noodles in it. Until then, it’s just ingredients for pho.
MonkderDritte@feddit.de 10 months ago
So because i make tea cold in summer and think coffee is a tea too, i’m a “crude oil is tea” sort of guy? 🤨
OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
What, you don’t enjoy a nice iced crude oil on a hot summers day?
Zehzin@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Son, fetch me another can of that crude oil, I’m mighty parched
johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Really feels like one should be “tea is made from tea”
rsuri@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I guess I’m an ingredient purist, preparation rebel. If your house is surrounded by tea plants, and the tea lives fall in the gutter, how is that different from brewing tea the normal way?
0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
Hey, that’s basically tea’s origin story.
In Chinese legend, Emperor Shennong was drinking a bowl of just boiled water because of a decree that his subjects must boil water before drinking it.[12] Some time around 2737 BC, a few leaves were blown from a nearby tree into his water, changing the color and taste. The emperor took a sip of the brew and was pleasantly surprised by its flavor and restorative properties.
pyre@lemmy.world 10 months ago
mighty brave for an emperor to look see that their water has changed color, and decide to try it anyway.
menemen@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Does your Götter contain 90°C hit water?
Censored@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Water isn’t the ideal temperature. Everyone knows black tea must be made with water that’s 212-210 degreases Fahrenheit
Agrivar@lemmy.world 10 months ago
JFC, for someone so bent about the proper way to prepare tea, one would think you’d be able to spell “degrees”
Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
I mean, he’s not going to have black tea anyways as it won’t have been prepared correctly.
LazerFX@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Coffee isn’t a tea, as you don’t boil it. If you boil it, you burn the coffee! That’s an extraction - you can steep it, but it’s better if you just push the water through at high pressure (which will royally screw up a tea).
Ah, pedantry in pedantry. So - now for Lemmy to tell me what I’ve gotten wrong :-D
chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
Boiling green tea is also considered burnt, as green teas recommended steeping temp is 170-175, unless I misunderstood what you mean there.
LazerFX@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
No, that’s fair. Coffee at pressure is about 93 - 95°C… No idea for drip/french press/v60 etc. as I don’t use those For Aeropress, I’d wait until the kettle stopped making noise, that seemed to be a good balance without burning the oils.
ICastFist@programming.dev 10 months ago
So, is a martini with the olive on top, a preparation rebel/igredient neutral or ingredient purist?
BmeBenji@lemm.ee 10 months ago
This and the cube rule are the best way to make an argument for categorizing edible items
Draegur@lemm.ee 10 months ago
Beef tea was when people would boil jerky to rehydrate it. I actually do that at work sometimes! Most nights I enjoy bouillon broth on its own, but occasionally I’ll spruce it up with a little jerky, and it actually thicken up and get more tender! It also GREATLY enhances the flavor of the broth. When the dry night air of the office is bothering my throat, nothing satisfies quite like warm broth.
(I get hot water by not putting any coffee grounds in the coffee machine. I also use this to prepare tea on occasion, and also ramen cups every once in a blue moon)
not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world 10 months ago
If you boil coffee it’ll be over extracted, bitter, and nasty.
Etterra@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Coffee ≠ tea. Coffee is made from beans and tea is made from leaves. That’s why tea tastes like grass clippings.

Double purist, the only way to be
sylveon@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
“Preparation purist” is wrong. You don’t boil the tea, you steep it in hot water. For some teas, like black tea, you usually boil the water before pouring it over the tea, but other types of tea use water that isn’t as hot (e.g. around 70-80°C for green tea).
Also, if you actually want to be an ingredient purist, tea must be made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis (or a closely related species).
Skalbagge@lemm.ee 10 months ago
You’re arguing with a meme that put clogged gutter as pure tea ingredient
Manifish_Destiny@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Correct. That would be tea as long as it’s camellia sinensis.
problematicPanther@lemmy.world 10 months ago
i mean, if you consider tea to be leaves soaked in water until the flavor comes out, then clogged up gutter water is tea.
Censored@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The meme is terrible and shows the creator has taste buds that probably can’t distinguish between gutter water and tea (especially after it’s been BOILED a few hours).
C126@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
You hit the issue, theyre confusing tea, a specific plant, with an infusion. Herbal tea is more correctly called an herbal infusion.
bitwaba@lemmy.world 10 months ago
From en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbal_tea :
MxRemy@lemmy.one 10 months ago
I came to say the same thing about Camellia sinensis, thinking “am I about to be more of a tea purist than is even encapsulated in this chart?” So I’m glad somebody else got there first lol

Oh shit. My earl grey (brewed in a ceramic (earthenware) mug) is not tea because it brewed in a mug, not a tea pot.

Unfortunately for you, yes. Please report to the nearest Tetley factory for processing.
lugal@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
I’ve been to a workshop about green tea recently and you can prepare it with any water temperature. You can make it with cold water, it just takes longer. You can even place ice cubes into the can, put tea leaves on top and let them melt
Censored@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Yes, sun tea is tea. I’d really like to see this meme done by someone who actually knows something about tea (and doesn’t think it involves boiling tea leaves)
Crashumbc@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Ice brewed tea is a thing in the US. Take a pitcher with water and ice, throw it in the fridge overnight with some tea bags
Klear@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
100% agreed.
Though I’m firmly in the “coffee is tea” camp
hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
Coffee is hot bean juice
sylveon@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
As long as you’re not claiming to be a purist I’ll allow it.
match@pawb.social 10 months ago
I think coffee is sometimes tea, but turkish coffee and espresso are definitely not
SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
It depends. It’s perfectly acceptable to boil the tea for many Indian preparations (usually called cha or chai).
sylveon@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
True, I forgot about that!
Censored@lemmy.world 10 months ago
That’s not tea, it’s chai.
pseudo@jlai.lu 10 months ago
It depends of the kind of tee your using. Once I bought the wrong type of turkish tea and next thing I now I’m boiling my tea during month so I don’t drink a slighty darker version of hot water.
Censored@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Thank you. I am horrified that I had to scroll past a discussion of “is pho tea”? to get here. The so-called purist has never even made a proper cup of tea! So obviously pho is NEVER tea, since stock is extensively boiled.
