How this kind of dish is made

The source documents this dish but not a method specific to it. The steps below describe how dishes of this kind are generally made.

  1. Bring fresh water to a boil.

  2. Place the tea, flowers, or herbs in a pot and add hot water.

  3. Steep for several minutes, strain if needed, and serve plain or sweetened.

Cook's notes

Avoid prolonged boiling of aromatic herbs; covered steeping preserves aroma better. Control the amount of herb to prevent excessive bitterness.

Background

Doodpati, or Balochi milk tea, is an important drink in Baluchestan, used at breakfast, in hospitality, and in daily life. Its combination of tea, milk, and spices reflects southeastern Iran's cultural links with the Indian subcontinent.
