Hello Leo,
Thank you for your kind reply! The soupbowl I actually make it in is: https://www2.marindex.nl/popup_image.php?pID=1173&image=0. I tried it today gaiwan style with a small plate like object wich has
the size of my hand palm (used to put teabags/strainers on after sufficient steeping) but the tea didn’t go where I wanted it to go and the bowl and its shape combined with the particular lid doens’t seem to work :-(. Then I tried pouring it from one into a second bowl through a just large enough tea strainer to filter out the leaves, could make a mess but with enough practise it should go flawless in a few days though. ;-)At least the leaves can ‘swim’ freely in it!
Although I am most likely not as poor as you, my family isn’t that rich either. My mom and dad always tell me: “Deprivation builds character!” ;-).
Thanks for your informative website and kind reply!
I wish you happy holidays as well!
Herendil
