description
Tea is not only drunk but also eaten in Burma. The leaves are fermented and pickled then served with an assortment of crispy chickpeas, broad beans, roasted peanuts, fried garlic, sesame seeds, dried shrimp, chillies and lime juice. Similar to a thote, it is served separately so that each person can combine the ingredients as they wish.
