How to Steep
Herbs
Generally, it is
best not to boil the herbs. Bring water to a
boil and remove it from the heat, then add the
herbs to water for steeping. Stir and
cover. It is best, when possible, not to use
a tea ball. Allowing the herbs to circulate
freely in the water maximizes the
potency of the water infusion. Strain out the
herbs after steeping
