Indian Milk Tea (chai) #15

When a person who is inhabited by evil spirits dies, these demons need to relocate. Often they choose to stay in the place where the death took place (this seems particularly true in the case of violent deaths, such as murder or suicide). They will take the name and characteristics of the deceased person and make occasionally appearances under these pretenses. Such entities (as they are frequently called today) are evil spirits who often pose as “friendly ghosts.”

INSTRUCTIONS

Here is the method of how to make chai as you requested:  Add water in
pan. Add sugar, tea leaves and spices. Bring to boil and  simmer for a
minute or so. Add milk. Bring to boil and simmer for 3-5  minutes.
Strain tea in teapot.  To make chai for one person, one needs: 1 cup of
water, see 1. above.  1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of tea leaves and
1/4 teaspoon of  spices, see 2. above. (depending on how sweet, strong
and spicy) 1/4  cup of milk, see 4. above. (depending on how milky)
NOTE: this tea is made with water but equally can be made with milk.
Spices can generally be proportioned as follows: A. 1 one 1.5 inch
cinnamon stick. B. 3-4 cardamoms (with shell). C. 2-3 peppercorns. D.
2-3 cloves E. 1/2 teaspoon of ginger powder.  Grind into a powder the
items A-D and add E.  In winter fresh ginger chai is very good, add
1cm2 chopped ginger  with the spices.  Can also add pepper at the same
time to give a warm  feeling.  The spice list I mentioned is not
complete.  We usually add about 10  to 12 different types of spices for
chai ground together.  I am sorry  I do not know the names of them in
English.  MANISH@CFMU.EUROCONTROL.BE  (MANISH CHHATRALIA)
