Ingredients
150g rice
Instructions
Spread the rice in a pan. Dry-fry the rice over medium heat, stirring constantly so that they brown evenly. The process should take about 10 minutes. Make sure that they do not burn as this will make your tea bitter. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the rice to cool completely.
Place 1 tablespoon of the roasted rice grains in a cup. Pour hot water over the rice and allow to steep for 1 to 5 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea, longer for stronger tea. You can also add some dried tangerine peel, goji berry, jujube or ginger to the tea. To make Genmaicha (green tea with roasted rice), add a green tea bag.
