Dear
Bar , e
heard different
explanations
of what chai
tea is. Can you
clarify things.Thanks, Ruthie.

.

:

A

nswer: Dear Ruthie, A
good place to start is with
the confusing terminol-
ogy. In many parts of the world
(principally, Asia and the Middle
East) "char is the word for tea.
So, "chai tea," in many regions,
literally (and redundantly) means,
"tea tea." In Southeast Asia, chai
is almost as popular as coffee.

In most English-speaking
countries (America in-
cluded), "chai tea" more
often refers to something
/ •
more accurately know
\ as "masala chai," which,
(. /,,, . translated from the
• '
original Hindi and
Chinese languages,
, ,
, s I , means (are you ready?)
"spiced tea."

In North America, a
typical coffeehouse
recipe consists of black
tea steeped in a boiled/
simmered mixture of nutmeg,
ground cloves, honey, cinnamon,
cardamom, ginger, water, and
regular milk. Other recipes add/
substitute coriander seeds, fennel,
star anise, soy milk, and other
ingredients.

Believed by some to have healing
properties, preparing chai tea at
home for family and friends can
be a wonderfully aromatic way to
welcome the holidays.
