Re: -Chai .... Indian Tea!!-
In India, teas are defined by the regions in which they are grown. Therefore we have Darjeeling Tea, Assam Tea, Nilgiri Tea & Orissa Tea
Mrinalini D'Costa, Germany, I think this whole site has been spread out very well. What I find best is that there are English to Indian conversioins for all the spices. This kind of stuff really helps people like me, coz I didn't know how to cook Indian at all. This is a great guide for me now, I use it nearly as my tutor.
"Chai" is the hindi word for Tea. Indian tea is full bodied and strong. Known throughout the world and adored by millions. Today Indian teas come in a wide range of flavors and strengths.
To be invited for a cup of tea, to an Indian house, means that not only will you get a cup of tea, but you will be served a plethora of yummy snacks. Indians are well known for their hospitality. So if you get invited for a cup of tea to an Indian house don't refuse the invitation, go and have a wonderful time.
