Before You Start
Fill the kettle, set out your favorite mug, and have the honey and lemon within reach.
How To Make It
- Bring the water to a rolling boil, about 3 to 4 minutes, until it steams hard and bubbles break the surface.
- Pour it over the chamomile tea bag in a mug, cover, and steep 5 minutes so it stays hot and turns golden.
- Lift out the tea bag and stir in the honey until it dissolves.
- Squeeze in the lemon wedge and sip it slow.
Fix It: If it tastes bitter, you steeped it too long; next time pull the bag at 5 minutes and stir in a little more honey to soften it.
Microwave
- Add the ingredients you would cook together to a microwave safe bowl along with their liquid.
- Cover loosely and microwave in one minute bursts, stirring between each, until hot through.
- Let it stand for a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
