Book excerpt: “Pannunzio approaches the topic of tea drinking as a state of meditation . . . a great gift for any tea lover.” —Emily Slonina, author of Anywhere, Anytime, Any Body Yoga Tea-spiration aims to create a quiet movement where one can experience devotions, comfort, inspiration, and the simple joys of life. Tea drinkers know that tea, the wonderful drink, can help them slow down and savor life’s moments. In her debut book, Lu Ann Pannunzio uplifts and inspires readers in a way that does more than just telling them a story about tea and its history. As in life, tea is about the little things we need to experience (devotions, inspiration, reflection, comfort). Each page of Tea-spiration is filled with feelings and moments (big or small) that tea enhances; simple joys that not everyone may notice or take the time to savor. Sometimes all you really need is a cup, water, and some leaves to create your own wonderful cup of tea experience. So, take pleasure in this tea lover’s book, along with that special cup of tea, and stop and appreciate the simple joys of life! “Where will your next cup of tea take you? A trip down memory lane? Or, swept away to another region of the world? Allow yourself to experience tea as described within and you just may find Tea-spiration to live a more meaningful life thanks to this healthful, delicious beverage (tea) and our affini-tea for it.” —Gail Gastelu, publisher, The Tea House Times

Download or read book The Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 920 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweet tooth is a powerful thing. Babies everywhere seem to smile when tasting sweetness for the first time, a trait inherited, perhaps, from our ancestors who foraged for sweet foods that were generally safer to eat than their bitter counterparts. But the "science of sweet" is only the beginning of a fascinating story, because it is not basic human need or simple biological impulse that prompts us to decorate elaborate wedding cakes, scoop ice cream into a cone, or drop sugar cubes into coffee. These are matters of culture and aesthetics, of history and society, and we might ask many other questions. Why do sweets feature so prominently in children's literature? When was sugar called a spice? And how did chocolate evolve from an ancient drink to a modern candy bar? The Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets explores these questions and more through the collective knowledge of 265 expert contributors, from food historians to chemists, restaurateurs to cookbook writers, neuroscientists to pastry chefs. The Companion takes readers around the globe and throughout time, affording glimpses deep into the brain as well as stratospheric flights into the world of sugar-crafted fantasies. More than just a compendium of pastries, candies, ices, preserves, and confections, this reference work reveals how the human proclivity for sweet has brought richness to our language, our art, and, of course, our gastronomy. In nearly 600 entries, beginning with "à la mode" and ending with the Italian trifle known as "zuppa inglese," the Companion traces sugar's journey from a rare luxury to a ubiquitous commodity. In between, readers will learn about numerous sweeteners (as well-known as agave nectar and as obscure as castoreum, or beaver extract), the evolution of the dessert course, the production of chocolate, and the neurological, psychological, and cultural responses to sweetness. The Companion also delves into the darker side of sugar, from its ties to colonialism and slavery to its addictive qualities. Celebrating sugar while acknowledging its complex history, The Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets is the definitive guide to one of humankind's greatest sources of pleasure. Like kids in a candy shop, fans of sugar (and aren't we all?) will enjoy perusing the wondrous variety to be found in this volume.

Book excerpt: Text in English and Mandarin. Chinese Tea Master Jason C S Chen has spent the past 21 years deeply involved in the business of tea. He has visited most of the best known tea gardens in China where authentic and traditional tea is grown. During these trips he has always had his camera at his side. This first book in a series focuses on two famous oolong teas. Phoenix Single Tree was first created 900 years ago from tea plants that only grow on one mountain in Southern China. Tie Kuan Yin is the most popular oolong tea in the world. It was created 400 years ago, and, at one time, the name Tie Kuan Yin (Iron Goddess of Compassion) was synonymous with tea. This book is a photographic exploration of the creation of these two teas from harvest to processing and the first tasting.
