    When tea was first introduced to Europe, people didn’t have bone china, so the cups were very fragile. But then bone china was introduced, which allowed porcelain products to be made very thin but considerably stronger. However, these were also very expensive, so only the most affluent could acquire them. Those who had bone china, added water first, while the others added milk. This was in a way a sign of wealth or higher class at the time, differing across class lines. Even now, King Charles has apparently said that the Royal family are firm believers in water first, which is maybe a confirmation of that 😄

    The recipe for cooking a placenta reminded me of the recipe for albatross,
    1) pluck the albatross
    2) boil it in lightly salted water for half an hour
    3) discard the water
    4) boil again in sugar water for half an hour
    5) discard the water
    6) boil in spring water for half an hour
    7) discard the albatross

    Milk in first comes from when fine bone China was used. The delicate porcelain was sensitive to heating so to prevent cups from cracking or exploding milk was added first to control the temperature.

    • @jeraldbaxter3532
      @jeraldbaxter3532 5 місяців тому +5

      I agree with you, but, I wonder...the Chinese have been drinking tea for many centuries, and I have been told they do not add milk at all, so, were they sending the really fragile cups to England while keeping the sturdy porcelain for themselves, or did they not serve tea at as high a temperature, or what? Enquiring minds want to know, especially as I am hosting the pretender to the Dragon Throne next Thursday😉

    • @trudimclaren4301
      @trudimclaren4301 5 місяців тому +4

      ​@jeraldbaxter3532 I can't say this is true, but my guess is that we added milk in the west to take away the bitterness from black tea - I don't believe Chinese people drank black tea, and the fermenting process to make it was to stop it going off on the long overland journey back to Britain (and then you had flavours added like Earl and Lady Grey to 'lift' the flavour, I guess). Again, this is just my assumption, but it seems to make sense 🤷‍♀️🫤

      ​@@trudimclaren4301 green tea is traditionally not served boiling hot, ideal brewing temperature is 80°C, and I doubt they used kettles. If it is heated too much green tea becomes bitter. It will naturally have some bitterness but when brewed well it's sort of sweet.

    I remember being told for the MIF vs TIF argument that it came about because of class distinctions. In days of yore, if you were lower middle class or below, it was more likely that you would have lower quality china something like an earthenware which might crack under thermal shock if the tea was placed into the cup first, so the milk was always put in first to offset the heat. Where as, someone who had access to the likes of bone china or porcelain cups could withstand the thermal shock better, so the tea was put in first.

    When bone china tea sets first became all the rage in England, only the very rich/aristocracy could afford the fine china that was tempered porcelain. The middleclass could only afford the lesser quality china that was not tempered but still highly decorated. They had to put the milk in first to avoid temperature shock that could shatter the cup. The rich put the milk in second because a very fine tempered porcelain cup will not shatter when hot tea is poured directly into it. The working class (those in service) took their ques from their employers and adopted the milk-second habit because, as members of the household staff in-residence, they had their tea served in very fine porcelain.

    • @JacksonBockus

      “Primate” originally meant the person of the highest rank, coming from the Latin word for first. Many early taxonomists saw life on earth as a hierarchy with humans at the top and other “lesser” creatures below them. Therefore the category that included humans and other apes were the “primates”.

    The milk first question is unfair, because the right way to make tea is one separate pot and then pour it in the cup.... The tea is steeped in the pot, so it doesn't matter wether you put the milk or tea in the cup first.... Except for the fact that if you do milk first and add too much milk, you can't remove the excess milk once you the tea. Therefore if you put it in second, you can gauge how much to use more easily!

      That's almost like saying, when arguing if the chicken came before the egg, we answer "irrelevant, I'm happy with a Tuna sandwich." Seriously though, if I'm using a pot, the milk is in the mug while waiting. If I'm brewing in the mug the milk goes in last. I don't use bone China (or anything that isn't the biggest mug I can find) so protecting the ceramic means nothing to me

      QI often sacrifices accuracy for the sake of sounding interesting.
      Which is not entirely unfair, its purpose is to entertain the masses not educate them on comparative religion.
      So the idea of "the head of the (Roman) Catholic Church doesnt have the official title of Pope, and the man with the official title of Pope isn't actually (Roman) Catholic" is near enough to accuracy for a mostly non-religious audience.

    Honey, tea bag then milk. That way I can estimate hoe much bolunenis lost after I remove the tea bag.

    Fake coconut break - no milk

      The coconut water came out, it was dripping. Coconut milk is blended coconut flesh mixed with water, you don't get coconut milk when you break a coconut open.

    Her opening the coconut is ruined by all the unfunny, 'man-splaining' nonsense before.
