A pinch of ground clove refers to a small amount of ground clove spice that can be held between the thumb and forefinger, typically around 1/16 of a teaspoon. Clove has a strong, aromatic flavor and is commonly used in both sweet and savory dishes, as well as in beverages like spiced tea. Its warm, slightly sweet taste makes it a popular ingredient in baking, especially during the holiday season. Due to its potent flavor, a little goes a long way in recipes.
The special piece of equipment used to make Russian tea is called a "samovar." Traditionally, a samovar is a metal container with a spigot that holds heated water, often used to brew tea and keep it hot. It can also be used to prepare a concentrated tea mixture, which is then diluted with hot water from the samovar. The samovar is not only functional but also serves as a centerpiece for social gatherings and tea ceremonies in Russian culture.
