Food historian, Judith Krall-Russo, talked about how tea in China and Japan is enjoyed in many forms from a simple bowl of tea to the beautiful and intricate tea ceremony. The program included a tea-making demonstration of the Chinese tea ceremony – gong fu cha, and the Japanese tea ceremony – cha-no-yu, as well as a display of Asian tea implements.
