Greetings!
I am a devoted tea drinker, particularly of Chinese and Taiwanese green and oolong teas. I am currently writing a book on tea, with one chapter devoted to suggested uses for used/spent tea leaves (tea bags). I have already "rounded up the usual suspects" -- that is, I know all about using used/spent tea leaves as compost, to remove odors, as a hair rinse, to clean floors/carpet, to relieve stings, to freshen puffy eyes, as a dye, etc. What I am looking for are the more unusual uses -- for example: -- anybody know of using the leaves as feed for certain animals? -- anybody know of any recipes using the leftover leaves in BAKING? -- anybody use the leaves as material for a certain hobby? Does anybody have any unusual uses for their leftover tea leaves? Any/all information will be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance! |
