Summary
Recent research revealed that the latest Boston Tea Party is taking place in the kitchen for some innovative cooks. Interviews conducted* with more than 1,000 home cooks indicated that only one out of nine adults have used tea leaves or brewed tea in cooking. But, once these cooks discover the flavor that tea can bring to so many recipes, they're sold on its benefits. Nearly one out of four surveyed who cooked with tea leaves or brewed tea commonly use them as a key flavor ingredient in salad dressing (24 percent), in a dessert or as a meat rub (17 percent each) or in an entree (16 percent).

"In addition to the extraordinary flavor tea can add to a dish, it is a nutritionally sound way to go, as Americans look for ways to eat healthier without sacrificing taste."New Lipton Pyramid Teas are a collection of exotic premium teas made with innovative, pyramid-shaped gossamer bags that allow the long leaf tea plenty of room to infuse your cooking with memorable flavors.
