In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to make instant masala chai powder with Midirion Chai Masala, so that you can taste the true, rich flavor of masala chai whenever you desire.
Why Make Your Own Masala Chai Powder?
Making your own masala chai powder means you can customize the flavor to your liking, and it's a lot cheaper than purchasing pre-mixed blends. Homemade chai powder also doesn't contain preservatives or artificial flavorings. The best part about using Midirion Chai Masala is that it already contains a perfectly balanced mix of spices, so you don't have to bother measuring and mixing different ingredients. It's the ultimate convenience for chai enthusiasts!
Ingredients You’ll Need:
In order to make your own instant masala chai powder, all you need are a few common ingredients. By using Midirion Chai Masala, you'll achieve the perfect mixture of spices in your masala chai every single time.
- Midirion Chai Masala (1-2 tablespoons depending on how much you like)
- 1 cup black tea leaves (strong Assam tea or Darjeeling best)
- 1-2 tablespoons of sugar (optional, depending on how sweet you like it)
- 1 cup milk (or your choice of milk substitute)
Instructions for Making Instant Masala Chai Powder:
Step 1: Preparing the Spice Mix
The star of the show here is Midirion Chai Masala, which includes the perfect blend of spices like cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and ginger. These spices add a warming and aromatic touch to your tea, making it an unforgettable experience. For your homemade chai powder, use 1-2 tablespoons of Midirion Chai Masala to ensure that your brew has a strong and vibrant flavor.
Step 2: Mixing Tea Leaves with Chai Masala
We're now going to mix our tea leaves with the Midirion Chai Masala. In a large mixing bowl, mix together 1 cup of your preferred black tea leaves (for a spicier, more robust tea flavor) and the Midirion Chai Masala. For a bolder, more spicy chai, go ahead and add more chili masala at your discretion.
This combination of black tea and chai spices will be the foundation of your instant masala chai powder. You can keep this mixture in an airtight container for a few weeks, and it will be available whenever you feel like having a cup of chai.
Step 3: Adding Sweetener (Optional)
Though Midirion Chai Masala itself contributes a great depth of flavor, there are some who prefer their masala chai sweet. If you want your chai sweeter, add sugar or jaggery to your tea mixture. Just stir in 1-2 tablespoons of sugar (or more, depending on how sweet you like your chai) into the tea leaves and spice mixture. You can vary this according to your preference for sweetness.
Step 4: Brewing Your Instant Masala Chai
Now that your masala chai powder is prepared, it's time to brew a cup. To brew, use approximately 1-2 teaspoons of the tea and chai masala mixture per cup of water.
- Boil water, and add the prepared chai powder.
- Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the spices and tea to steep.
- Add your milk (roughly 1 cup for a rich, creamy chai) and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Strain your chai into a cup, and sweeten with additional sugar if desired.
Now, enjoy a steaming cup of homemade masala chai! The rich aroma, silky texture, and bold flavors will transport you to a warm chai stall in India.
Tips for Perfecting Your Instant Masala Chai:
-
Adjust the Spice Levels: If you like your chai less spicy, cut back on the Midirion Chai Masala. Add more for a spicier, more robust taste.
-
Experiment with Milk: For a non-dairy version, try almond milk, coconut milk, or any other plant-based milk.
-
Store the Powder for Convenience: Prepare extra masala chai powder and store it in an airtight container for easy access whenever you crave your chai.
