In honor of my 700th post, I thought I would ask my wonderful readers a question:
Does anybody know where to buy the orange colored tea that they serve in Thai restaurants? Or, alternately, the blend of spice to use with black tea to produce that flavor?

Comment by bridgett August 5, 2008 @ 8:54 pmUh, Saigon Market, about two miles from my house? (I love LA.) I get it in a pound sack, pour it into tupperware containers, and it lasts forever. It looks like a bucket of rust, so be careful how you store it (tends to stain).
Comment by Penny August 6, 2008 @ 9:54 amI love the internet. It gives all sorts of hints for substituting for foods I can’t get locally, like mixing cream cheese in with ricotta to approximate pot cheese.
