FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 26, 2009 -- Beverly Hills, California - PeLi Teas announces the participation of Robert Wemischner, food writer, pastry chef, and author of Cooking with Tea at the 2009 World Tea Expo in Las Vegas May 2-3. Mr. Wemischner will be cooking with tea and offering tantalizing tastes of his tea-based dishes at the show using PeLi premium teas on Saturday and Sunday May 2nd and May 3rd. He will also be available to sign his book.

Cooking with Tea was a result of Robert’s passion for gourmet cooking with tea. He has been using PeLi teas for tea-based dishes for a few months and is delighted by the quality and wide range of PeLi Teas teas and comments: “When cooking with tea it is important to have a tea with the proper character and freshness. I have found that PeLi teas deliver flavors that stand up to the other ingredients in a dish. Having found teas of such high quality, I am pleased to recommend that other chefs and cooks alike try these teas with my recipes.”

Robert selected the PeLi Tarry Souchong to flavor his decadent tea-scented chocolate truffles and will also be using PeLi’s Keemun Hao Ya A as the prime flavoring in a dish of tea-sauced scallops. For a tea-smoked mushroom medley he will be featuring a PeLi Yunnan black tea. And in a healthful dessert, he will use green tea to poach fragrant Asian pears.
