book review 9



Today's book is "FOOD AND DRINK IN BRITAIN".


I have never been to Britan but I know that tea is very popular in Britain. Coffee has became very popular in Britain recent years, but tea is still national drink.


In 1610, tea was brought from China to Europe. At first, it was very expensive so not many people could buy it, but by 1750 it was widly drunk in Britain. The traditional way of making tea is:


1 Boil some fresh cold water.


2 Put some hot water into the teapot to make it warm.


3 Pour the water away.


4 Put one teaspoon of tea-leaves per person, and one extra teaspoon, into the pot.


5 Pour boiling water onto the tea.


6 Leave for a few minutes.


7 Serve.


And you can see how to make Shepherd's Pie and Scones on this book. Shepherd is a person who looks after sheep, and a shepherd's pie is usually made from lamb. If you are interested in them, please read it!
