Fermented tea made from leaves of garden and wild plants (master class)

Lina, amazing! This is Talent!

Linaaa, I can't even find the words! It seems that the frame of the picture is a door, and it pulls to step over the threshold! I have never even seen the sea, can I step into your corridor? And how to listen to songs, songs? Into ochum. I visited the handles, tea bracelets will be our amulets, get ready to take orders! You are a talent, girls!

Girls, my complexes begin, here are people who can do things that I never even dreamed of ... and I'm kind of armless, mediocre ...

Girls, my complexes begin, here are people who can do things that I never even dreamed of ... and I’m some kind of armless, mediocre ...

Lenochka, we are together again. We will develop an inferiority complex together with you! But on the other hand, people cannot be all the same! So I can ... (oh, what can I?) Grow everything and make tea in greenhouses, here !!!!

Girls, my complexes begin, here are people who can do things that I never even dreamed of ... and I’m some kind of armless, mediocre ...

Helen, we are together again

What do you mean! There are many of us here.
But on the other hand, we know how to sincerely rejoice in other people's successes and talents! Do not envy, do not hait, do not mumble "yes, I can do that too", "that's all they play with spillikins, like small children", "yes, I'd rather buy in a store than take a steam bath." And to admire all this splendor and get great pleasure from the fact that life has given us a meeting with such talented people. You know, everyone can offend an artist, so this is our skill: to support, praise, inspire for further achievements and boast!

[Tricia]

Tricia,

we know how to sincerely rejoice in other people's successes and talents!

support!

[elena kadiewa]

elena kadiewaYou just don't know what talent you have. You do something great, that's talent! Don't panic!

Girls, as you all speak beautifully! Everything is correct. We have all the talents! Someone draws, someone writes music, sings songs and writes prose, someone makes soap. And what rolls-pies we all bake !!! Now we are making tea. That's it ...

By the way, about buns-pies. Girls who love scones? I just love it. But I never baked. And those cakes that are baked at the Vyazemsky market did not stand next to the real ones. I bought it several times, hoping that the right cakes would be baked in the tandoor. It turned out to be sheer disappointment. After all, I remember the taste of a real cake. And then I found a recipe at Mistletoe Flatbread "almost Uzbek" ... I baked it and now I enjoy it, remembering the taste of a real Kazakh tandoor flatbread. Almost indistinguishable. We can't eat enough. It is eaten faster than bread. Here, I baked yesterday:



If you haven't baked it yet, then try it, you'll like it.
Ksyusha, another huge thank you for your nostalgic taste. In your topic, I reported as expected.

Here I found a couple of pictures of the new chicken coop, taken back in September. Now I have advanced more, but there is no time (I come for 1 day on the weekend), it gets dark quickly (you can't see where to cut and what to nail) and hands are freezing (you won't work for a long time). I will take more pictures.

sequentially: cubism (place under the perch), facade from the side of the covered walk, walk to the side (not yet equipped).

I also adore tortillas, now I make from the "5-minute dough" in the Princess pizza maker. But they, of course, do not resemble Uzbek. They are more reminiscent of Italian (like focacci), but tasty. Like these ones:

Lina, don't poison your soul ...Once upon a time, they lived in the village for 3 years, constantly, even the children studied there for six months. And there was a chicken coop, also with a walk, the locals twisted their fingers at their temples, and goats in a separate room, and rabbits in two-story cages, and sheep ... But then I was almost 2 times smaller than now ...

[Veronica]

Veronica, goats, rabbits and lambs require constant care and presence, but chickens do not. Mine calmly cope without me for 1-2 weeks, only they are very bored, when I arrive, they rejoice, run towards me and start rubbing their legs like cats. I've been keeping them for 9 years.

By the way, we are the same age as you

Inga, ran into Crazy hands - OTPAD! Indescribable beauty !

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, Linochka, how is everything done in your mind (chicken coop), many people dream of living like your chickens ..

many people dream of living like your chickens ..

Yes, Galya, the neighbors thought at first that we were building a cottage. Coop 3x4m and 5m high. Then I will describe all the details in the topic. I took into account the mistakes acquired during this time, now, I think, we can share with people. And I have a lot of experience in building with my own hands - I am a concrete worker of the 3rd grade, a tiler of the 4th grade, I built a dacha together with my husband and set up all the communications ourselves (heating, water supply, sewerage), they only helped us to put the rafters.

lappl1 THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!! I have never made or seen such recipes for teas, in the old fashioned way they simply dried herbs and that's it. I read and fired up everything to try. Thank you for such a detailed description and photo report. Just a low bow to you. Thank you. I'm waiting for the summer)))) And I'll make cakes too, I was born in Kyrgyzstan and finished school there, I remember the taste and smell of cakes, I really hope that it will work out))) In general, Thank you all, the second day on the forum I can't tear myself away, I read, I read, I read. And it all started with the chickens I want to start, then I became interested in grain, then bread and reached tea))) Happy Holidays to ALL)))) Happiness, Love and God's blessings

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, there are women in Russian villages !!! and my husband never even gave me a brush in his hands, he never trusts men's work), but I don't suffer from this). He is a woodworker - and he does everything only by himself, I am also one of those who urgently wants to move out of town for good!

[Irina Che]

Irina Che, Irina, come to us for permanent residence, we are warm here and cozy

Lina, what a chicken coop! Dream! I can imagine how comfortable your chickens are there. I have a question - do the feed and water automatically go to the hens? And where do the eggs roll? After all, it's not in the nests that 2 weeks are waiting for you. And, probably, a heated chicken coop.
Well done! Did you come up with everything yourself? Or relied on someone else's experience.
In general, Lina, the topic about the chicken coop is needed! Definitely! Many will gladly take your experience into service.

and my husband never even gave me a brush in his hands,

Gal, this is not even discussed here. Somehow 20 years ago my husband said: "Are you an artist here? Well, a brush in your hands." So since then I've been painting, priming, covering, impregnating, stuffing ... Well, and make a blind area either there a path, or a foundation, or put a tile ... that's by itself I, I have discharges. Here are the patients and look sideways at their hands covered with paint, varnish and primer when I look at them with these hands. And they don't wash right after the "weekend".

a topic about a chicken coop is needed!

Lyuda, I understood that myself. Only now you have to present something. At least I'll install all the bells and whistles, take a picture, then I'll open the Temko. Yes, there are many ideas from another forum (about chickens), but everything else is my experience and ideas. There is a lot of automation, but technical knowledge is not particularly required, I will give the drawings, the principles are simple.

We kept chickens. Chickens are beautiful, domestic

... Only our neighbor spoiled everything for us. Chickens walked everywhere, will go to their yard, will not allow them to take their chicken. Don't go to my yard.

Since then we have not.

Only our neighbor spoiled everything for us

Tonya, our neighbor's dog climbed into the chicken coop and strangled and tore to shreds 5 chickens alive, moreover, my beloved ones, grown from eggs in an incubator, for which I was a mother, affectionate and gentle, absolutely tame. Now I have everything under control: everything is fenced off and there is an ultrasonic "dog scare".

Lina, I say the same, I can go to the village even now. But our husband is an Arbat native, you can't pull it out for good, and he doesn't know how to breed animals and doesn't want to. Previously, my husband was different ... but the second is building everything. Already planning another construction site, hobbled on crutches and groaning, but planning!
But what to draw, I never knew how to hold in my hands ... Even the tea in the summer was signed by my nephew, painted leaves-berries.
About chickens. Our husky climbed into the chicken coop to a neighbor and neatly brought us eggs, lukewarm ... We thought that she found somewhere a secret clutch in the grass, praised. And then they saw, and together with a neighbor. What a shame it was!

[Irina Che]

Irina Che, Irina, eh, how through chickens you successfully got into our Temka! Fate! I am very glad that you are interested in tea. We all invite you to winter talks, and closer to summer - to the joint production of tea. During this season, we all gained more experience, so we will help as much as we can.

And I will make cakes too, I was born in Kyrgyzstan and finished school there

Ooooh! So we are almost countrymen. My parents were born there, my grandparents lived there. And the aunts with the uncles remained. And also cousins ​​and sisters. My sister and I were there every summer on vacation in Issyk-Kul and Tokmak. And then, already in an independent life, they must go to Issyk-Kul for at least a week to Cholpon-Ata. A heavenly place! Cherries, chebachok, apricots - this does not grow anywhere else and is not found. The taste is special.
Oh, pleasant memories!
Ira, I understand that you have seen one tea topic so far. Then welcome to the neighboring ones - with Ivan-tea and "Derevensky". You have fireweed growing in Belarus. This is the coolest tea of ​​all teas. and "Rustic" from a mixture of smelly - great.
So, it will be friends, communicate. Welcome to our tea topic.

[Linadoc]

LinadocWe need it that way too.

Now I have everything under control:

But our husband is an Arbat native

Greetings to him from the indigenous ...

(I immediately remember an old anecdote: who do Muscovites dislike most of all? - Indigenous Muscovites! ") But what can you do if it happens? Old Moscow, it is small, we almost all know each other.

Lina, how interesting everything in your life is. It's time for you to write a book. Or maybe you already wrote?

Mdaaa ... called "tea forum"! We have already reached the chickens ... And my husband and I just recently discussed how we could have chickens for the summer at the dacha, the whole problem is that our summer is very short, the winter is cold and lasts almost 9 months, and the dacha is next to forest, and homeless people (and not only them) bomb the dachas, that is, they will endure everything at any moment. And in general it is very interesting and the main thing is how on time! Lina, thank you!

It's time for you to write a book. Or maybe you already wrote?

No, I wrote a bunch of articles, wrote manuals and textbooks, defended the disser, patented the invention ... But nothing about life.

Lina, well, what are your years! You will have time yet.

Linaaaaaa, the pictures are just class, I especially liked the green one, with the sea and the sun - my plot, I would like that.
Linochka, a magnificent chicken coop, I would also like that, write what you feed the chickens, that they rush in winter, in our village, as cold weather comes, so the chickens stop rushing. Or than the feed of the chickens or, most likely, the hen house is heated, so they rush? I'm looking forward to the topic about the chicken coop.
Lyudochka, Anise baked cakes from dough today in the morning, we must try the Omelkins.

Lina, well, what are your years!

Luda, I think the years are like yours. I represent you as a young experienced teacher, passionate about her work, "in full bloom".
Vika, I will try to make a topic in the near future. While I will answer - chickens rush if the daylight hours are not less than 16 hours (that is, it is not heat that is important, but the duration of the light). They, of course, have heating and correct feed (+ all food waste is not in the trash, but for them), but most importantly, the light is on a timer for 18 hours.

Lina, about daylight - to the point. When I started chickens, I read a lot about them. And about the effect of daylight hours on egg production. I didn't have 18 hours, but 15 always. So chickens rush all winter, even in 30-degree frosts in an unheated chicken coop.

Luda, I have 2 energy-saving lamps and 2 LEDs there. The total illumination is from 240W, and they consume 30W all together.And also the window area should be more than 1/10 of the floor area.

And about chickens - egg production also depends on the breed. Lina, do you have 15?

Girls, thank you very much for the praise, straight wings have grown)))
Luda, thanks for the active links to the "crazy", there will be time - I'll post something here too, if you allow)
Anastasia, Vika, sent the songs - I hope that our tastes coincide and you will like my favorite songs.

PS Girls, here you are all talking about talents - there are, no ... Yes, there are all talents - each in his own field - for example, I do not know how to bake cakes - pies, pies and other baked goods are obtained, but cakes NO! Well, I don't have this talent! And here, almost everyone can! Well now, acquire an inferiority complex?)))

Well, thanks, supported. Again, about the complexes, I can't draw at all, I can't write music at all, in my opinion the celestials have been given, I can pick up poetry, well, I can rhyme, but write a good one, alas ... I, probably, only know how to listen, talk to those to whom bad, but again, the main thing is to listen to the person. I try to help, but the further you go, the more you become convinced that then it becomes part of the order of things, a duty, it's a shame, but I still can't refuse. And baking pies and cakes is easy, once you try it, twice, then it will still work out, the main thing is with the desire to do it. Checkmark, I love the dacha very much, well, everything connected with it - greenhouses, beds, small land. And you are also Ch. boo. is mathematics, logic, decency, to calculate everything in advance, you are a genius!

I can't bake cakes

Inga, likewise, cakes are not mine at all! As soon as I have not tried and that just have not tried.

Lina, do you have 15?

Veronique, I have 12, Shaver Brown and White and "yard" breed.

Looks like I had brownies too. They rushed like catechumens, the whole year, there was no molting period as such. They? Yes, and the shell is so brown, beautiful ...

Girls, are you poisoning our souls? a??
chickens, rabbits and maybe even a dream goat from dreams!

Veronique, there are Shavers Brown (German breeding, very gentle and affectionate, absolutely tame) and Hisex Brown (Dutch breeding, calm as tanks, but businesslike), all egg breed, 300-310 eggs per year. Both have brown eggs.
Checkmark, I'm sorry!

We have a farm. The cow, the pigs in the stable, but no chickens.

We have an apartment, parquet floor. They don't believe, they think I'm bragging. She exhibited in classmates.

[Antonina]

Antonina, here's the class! But this is where you have to live, and I cannot afford it yet. (While the patient is stuck in a traffic jam, I can talk a little over tea).

Linochka, and treat me to tea

Checkmark, but with pleasure - today I have Ivan-tea with raspberries, thorns and blackberries! Very "warm, warming taste!"

ooooooooooooooooo ... I don't have a blackthorn, Linochka, what a yummy !!!! I'll drink and run further to balance the balance
thank you, thank you

Girls, looking at you, temptresses !, went rummaging in their bins) I found a tea, "rustic" (fireweed, bird cherry, mountain ash, a little strawberry), which I first rejected - put it in a far corner ... Tried it a month later - did not impress either taste or smell. And now I opened a jar - and the smell is (not strong, not catchy) noble or something, I would even say "dear"! I brewed it, covered it with a heating pad - I'm sitting waiting! Then I will report on the taste, I already like the smell)
Lina, don't you know how to make cakes? - I thought "you have no weak points!"))) I also did not do anything - it turns out like a gingerbread, but not a cake :-)
Elena, I bake constantly and with great pleasure, but only pies, pies, etc. I don’t mess with cakes anymore - one frustration)
(I am writing from the phone. Therefore, no quotes ...)

I thought "you have no weak points!"

Inga, of course I have a lot of weak points, I'm just a person, not an angel! And not only the inability to make cakes, but I, of course, do not advertise them. So let's drink tea and talk about it!

Lina, :-)! I drink tea - I tell you: my Village was brewed, strong black tea is straight in color, real black tea to taste! tart, tasty, slightly astringent, with the feeling that "something is added there", but "what"? do not define! (wrote in)))
In short - you liked the tea, you can treat the adherents of traditional black tea, who often say that "herbal teas lack astringency"!
