QualityBooks.com
All teas unless specified are brewed with 1 teaspoon
dry material or 2 teaspoons fresh material to 1 cup of water. Always steep. This
means pouring hot water over material and letting set for 5 - 15 minutes. Always
dry leaves and roots out of the sun, in dark airy places. Then store in airtight
containers.
Persimmon Tea: The leaves when dried and crushed make
a fine strong tea. Can be used all year round. Rich in vitamin C. Used as a healthful
tonic.
Sassafras Tea: Boil fresh roots after washing, until
water turns reddish brown. Can be sliced and dried for later use. Claimed by some
to be a blood thinner, a blood purifier, to help bronchitis, a stimulating spring
tonic. Mostly it is used for pure enjoyment.
Birch Tea (Wintergreen): Black, yellow and white birch. Dried leaves
can be used year round. A large handful of fresh leaves steeped in hot water was
drunk 1 to 2 cups a day for rheumatism and headaches. Said to reduce pain of passing
kidney stones, and a fever reducer. Cold it was used as a mouthwash.
Blackberry/Raspberry Tea: The dried mature leaves of
these brambles make a good tea. Used to help control diarrhea, as a blood purifier
and tonic. Use all year round.
Blueberry Tea: The dried
mature leaves are steeped until cool and drunk 1 to 2 cups per day as a blood
purifier and tonic. Also used to help inflamed kidneys and increase the flow of
urine. Somewhat bitter. Use all year round.
Alfalfa Tea: The dried and
powdered leaves and flower heads make a very nutritious tea, but it is somewhat
bland. We suggest mixing them with normal teas to stretch them and add nutrition.
Its vitamin content was the reason it was used. Used all year round.
Wild Strawberry Tea: Use dried leaves normally. Pour
several cups boiling water over a handful of fresh leaves in the evening. Cover
and let steep overnight. Strain water and reheat in the morning. Believed to help
with a multitude of things, from stomach troubles, eczema, diarrhea, etc. According
to experts, it is much more healthful than purchased coffee or teas. Use all year
round.
Wild Rose-Hip Tea: A handful
of these steeped for 10 minutes, then strained, make a healthful tea. Can be used
dried or fresh in season. Instead of boiling, place a handful in cool water overnight,
then stain and reheat in the morning. Use all year round. Strong Vitamin C content.
Helps with Colds and the flu. Also for sore throat.
Sweet Goldenrod Tea (Anise): Can use dried or fresh
leaves or flowers. Makes a very flavorful tea. Pure enjoyment only!! Used all
year round.
Soldier's Herb Tea: This common yard weed with green
leaves and two seedie spikes was used by the colonials and Indians alike. One
teaspoon of seeds per cup of boiling water steeped for 1/2 hour was used for dropsy
and jaundice. A tea from fresh leaves (chopped fine), one heaping teaspoon per
cup of boiling water steeped for 1/2 hour. For dried powdered leaves, use one
level teaspoon and reduce time to 15 minutes. Drunk 4 to 5 times a day until relief
was obtained. Used for gout, to help clean out nasal passages and to slow menstruation.

apple is a high quality apple
which keeps well for 5-6 months in common storage. The tree is one of
the most vigorous and hardy of apple trees, showing little damage at

and coarse. The flavor is sub-acid and ranges from mild and
well-balanced to strongly aromatic, depending on the degree of
maturity. Great eating apple with its subacid flavor. Develops its full
aromatic flavor if left on the tree until mid October. |
