Kelp tea is a tea made from kelp and is drunk in East Asian countries.
It is called konbu-cha[1] or kobu-cha[2] (昆布茶, meaning Kombu-tea) in Japan, haidai-cha (海带茶) in China and dasima-cha (다시마차) in Korea.
Varieties
Japan
In Japan, powdery kelp tea are sold as an Instant tea under the name of Konbu-cha. It is made by drying kelp to a fine powder and blending it with seasonings such as salt and sugar[2]. It's simply dissolved in hot water and enjoyed as a tea. Note that Konbu-cha does not contain any true tea (Camellia sinensis)[3][4][5].
The powdery kelp tea was invented by the founder of GYOKUROEN "Umazou Fujita" in 1918[1].
Ume-konbu-cha[1] or Ume-Kobu-cha[6], which is powdery kelp tea added freeze-dried Umeboshi, is also sold[1] and is drunk as a tea in the same fashion.
Oo-buku-cha or Dai-buku-cha is sencha green tea with kelp and Umeboshi and is drunk in New Year celebration in Kansai region[7].
Kelp tea is thought to have been drunk from quite a long time ago[2] because the edible use of kelp (Kombu) is from ancient times[2].
Tea using kelp already existed in Edo period at the latest[1], and people drank it by pouring boiling water over chopped kelp[1].
Korea
Either dried kelp powder or julienned kelp can be used to make the tea.[8]
Powdered tea can be made by pan-frying and pounding cleaned and dried kelp.[9] For a cup of hot water, two to three spoons of kelp powder is used.[9] Optionally, sugar or honey can be added.[9]
Alternatively, around 30 grams (1.1 oz) of cleaned kelp pieces are infused in 300–500 millilitres (11–18 imp fl oz; 10–17 US fl oz) of hot water.[10] The kelp slices are removed after infusing, and salt is added to taste.[10]
