Gourd Yerba Tea
Gourd Yerba Tea
can i use any type of tea when curing my yerba mate gourd, or do i have to use the actual yerba mate?
I just bought a gourd from teavana and i only bought 2 oz. of yerba mate, so i didnt want to waste any on curing it. Will i have to or can i use any type of tea?
The curing has one purpose : the removal of the inner soft tissues of the gourd. By removing the soft membrane it will insure that your first mate will not be so bitter. However if you want to use your gourd right away you don't have to cure it at all. The membrane will slowly be removed as you empty out the old mate and rinse with running water. The first couple of times the mate may have a more bitter taste by not curing it.
You may find on other web sites, books or booklets that you must use old yerba mate in the curing process. This is not entirely necessary as the gourd will finally get its proper taste after several uses of the mate.
