Directions
The Most Famous Arabian Beverage – Qahwa, This is THE MOST famous after-dinner drink here in the Sultante of Oman It’s really light and is served in traditional Omani homes in a golden/silver jug on a straw mat I once had a beautiful experience sipping this beverage in a traditional Omani home that had in it this most well-knit family who served from their soul; this is one experience and one drink I always hold close to my heart :), What you’re referring to is Kashmiri tea In Oman, qahwa is coffee, not tea Please don’t confuse the two , 4 1/2 stars with way more sugar, more water as some evaporates and as a preference less simmering time when the tea (used Lipton Yellow Label tea bags) is in the water but the rest of the ingredients besides garnish can simmer 15 minutes for us I like the slivered blanched almonds in this of which used blanched and slivered store bought ones rather than making my own, which was OK NOTE: Qahwa is coffee in Arabic not tea but I see what happened, qahwah (also spelled qehwa, kehwa or kahwa) is a traditional green tea recipe that originates from Kashmir It is made in parts of Kashmir administered by Pakistan and India, as well as throughout various regions of the countries Wikipidia There is a lot of Indian influence in Oman I may make this again
