Product Details

Dried Sencha tea, a popular type of Japanese green tea, offers a variety of uses beyond just brewing a refreshing beverage. Here are some ways dried Sencha tea can be utilised.

  1. Beverage Consumption:

    • Hot Tea: Sencha tea is most commonly brewed as a hot beverage. To prepare, steep the dried leaves in hot water (around 70-80°C) for 1-3 minutes to extract its flavours and health benefits. Adjust steeping time to taste, as longer steeping times can result in a bitter taste.
    • Cold Brew: It can also be used for cold brewing. Simply steep the leaves in cold water in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight to create a refreshing iced tea with a subtly sweet flavour.
  2. Culinary Uses:

    • Cooking: Dried Sencha tea leaves can be used as a culinary ingredient to impart a delicate green tea flavour to various dishes. For instance, you can infuse them into soups, broths, rice dishes, or even use them as a seasoning for seafood and vegetables.
    • Matcha Powder: Ground dried Sencha leaves can be used as a substitute for matcha powder in recipes such as desserts, smoothies, and baked goods. This provides a unique green tea flavour and colour to your culinary creations.
  3. Beauty and Skincare:

    • Face Masks and Scrubs: Sencha tea leaves can be ground into a powder and mixed with other ingredients to create homemade face masks or scrubs. Its antioxidant properties may help rejuvenate the skin and reduce signs of aging.
    • Hair Rinse: A brewed and cooled Sencha tea infusion can be used as a final rinse after shampooing to add shine and condition to the hair.
  4. Health and Well-being:

    • Antioxidant Boost: Sencha tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly catechins like EGCG, which have been linked to various health benefits including immune support, cardiovascular health, and potential cancer prevention.
    • Digestive Aid: The tannins present in Sencha tea may help soothe digestive issues and promote gut health when consumed in moderation.
