    How we do it in north is we boil water first then add tea leaves along with other masala ginger cardamom fennel cinnamon Black pepper etc let it boil for few seconds then add milk and finally sugar one last boil and it is done.. The more you boil it the strong the flavour gets so it is up to your taste how strong you want it..

    I am from India and we follow similar process except we let masala boil in water for few minutes before adding tea and milk. Ctc is optional but its used because it is cost effective. You can use whole leaf teas instead but you will need alot of tea and steep in in water after masala boils and then boil milk separately and add it to steeped black tea (this is my method, and is not common even in india too). Ctc and dust teas are inferior quality than long leaf teas and super cheap .so chaiwala usually use that. But you can get same taste with regular long leaf premium teas. Most important thing is what you said- watch for colour. It doesn't even matter if excess tea is added, turn off the stove and filter it when right color is obtained. if colour is right , then it should taste good. But if you add too little tea and boil for long time , it will taste bitter and that's why greedy chai stalls will add excess sweetness to hide this bitterness. Hope these tips will help some of you guys.

    I really enjoyed watching you making tea ( even though I make very good tea). After reading many comments, I would say that people make tea (Chai, Chaa, or Chaaya as it is called in some parts of South India) in different ways, from the beginning till the end. Most people add tea leaves first ( spices if you are adding), add milk, and boil some more, add sugar. Let it rest for 2-3 minutes to develop the color. Pour them back and forth between the pot and the cup to get the froth. My suggestion for those who want to learn how to make a very good tea is, to experiment with a few methods and decide which one You prefer. There is no right or wrong way. What I loved in this video is the passion with which the Spicewalla explained each process. That is important, passion in whatever you do.
    As for vegan options, Elmhurst oat milk ( in the US) has an acceptable taste. The traditional Indian method is with water and milk.

    Because the lady on front of some of the boxes of tea.
    I have some of their black tea right now,
    but their masala tea bags are actually pretty decent for when I'm lazy.
    Lazy being relative, if I'm not just using one spice, I usually end up making my own tea spice mix.

    Hi, I like your spirit! I teach authentic Indian cuisine in Mexico. Recently the milk curdled in the chai that I was making. Luckily, I had extra, but I've been worried ever since about how to avoid the milk curdling in chai. I used to make it basically like you do, only with all fresh whole spices. I researched and found the fresh (young) ginger has a chemical that can cause milk to curdle - so the recommendation is to get older ginger. The other suggestion I read is to add the milk at the end - as do the chai wallahs. Do you have any thoughts or experience around the curdling of milk in chai? Or anyone who is reading this?

    I've been cooking mine so long alot of my water evaporated. Maybe I need to cook on higher heat?

    • @Spicewalla
      @Spicewalla  ปีที่แล้ว

      If your heat is so low that you are not getting that nice simmer, then yes you may need to up the heat. But you don't want it so hot that it will burn or boil over! Finding that perfect spot on your home stove can take some practice but once you get it you'll know it forever!
      Some of your liquid will evaporate, giving it a nice creaminess.

    There seems to be 2 vocal camps - a boil tea and spices then add milk group and add it all together and cook camp. Why the 2 methods?

    As a color blind individual, how can you tell when it’s ready without judging color?

    • @Spicewalla
      @Spicewalla  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your question @DemonDarrel! We would say start by simmering it for 5-7minutes. From there you can try longer or shorter durations and see where the flavor is best for you!

    Nothing humble and simple about being a Chaiwala. Cultivation of tea and exotic spices have caused untold misery and exploitation.The chaiwala is a peddler on and of that timeline. I love chai.
