Directions

  1. Tie tea bags onto a wooden spoon. Fill a small pot with 2 cups water, add wooden spoon with tea bags. Bring water to a boil and remove tea bags. Add rice to boiling tea water, reduce heat to medium-low, cover pot, and simmer until rice has absorbed tea water, about 20 minutes. Stir sesame seeds and salt into rice.

  2. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cabbage, cover, and steam until tender yet still crisp, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove steamer from heat.

  3. Place edamame and almonds in a small pot, add enough water to cover. Bring water to a boil, remove pot from heat, and drain. Chop edamame and almonds.

  4. Combine cabbage, red bell pepper, edamame, and almonds in a bowl, serve over tea-infused rice.
