    There were some people camping next to the base camp (you could see them through the window of your bedroom) so even if there wouldn't be any space, you could have done just that.

    Very nice video ! Love it ! And even as a Moroccan, I learned a lot You probably didn't know, but you usually should only fill around 3/4 glass entirely and not entirely (it's considered bad manner if you do that for your guests). That way, you can hold the glass without burning yourself. Also, a precision : A lot of people don't put sugar in the tea directly (Because a lot of them have diabetes 😂, we call literally "having sugar"). So usually, when you have guests, you would either make 2 tea pots, one with sugar and one without, or just one without sugar and let the guests add sugar as they please

    @DigitalicaEG Před měsícem

    6:25 it’s an interesting technique. I have family in Morocco and we would never strain the tea like that by dumping all that water out. What we would typically do is after the water boils in a kettle we add just a little amount of water to the tea leaves (enough to cover the bottom of the teapot and all the leaves inside) and swirl the teapot around to sort of wash the leaves then we immediately dump just that water out. Idea being is that this removes the very harsh notes that the gunpowder tea first produces on first impact with hot water. Then you fill the teapot with hot water and after that you can drink the tea after letting it steep for a few minutes. It’s also common to pour a cup and return it to the tea pot at least two or three times as sort of a way to “stir the pot”, but I find this unnecessary if you haven’t filled the teapot to the brim as you can just swirl the teapot around to mix the tea. Anyways, nice report. Well done. Besehha :)

    • @LoastAndAbroad
      @LoastAndAbroad Před měsícem

      Thank you for the insight, washing the leaves that way would also retain much more of the minty flavor I imagine as well. I hear you on the multiple pours being an unnecessarily complicated way to stir the pot, but I counter your argument by saying that the act of tea pouring is fun.
