Must Watch. Hospitality is the main one. Hospitality is so important in Afghan culture that it is embedded in children stories and considered a reflection of personal reputation. Tea culture plays a large role in showing hospitality. A common tea served in Afghanistan is called Kahwah. It is a combination of green tea, cardamom pods, cinnamon bark, and saffron strands. It may also include peppercorns, ginger and almonds. These ingredients are typically mixed with boiling water in a samovar.
The tea is dispensed from the samovar and sugar is added before serving. So you too can share a small piece of Afghanistan hospitality, below is a recipe for Kahwah Tea that serves 4 so invite some friends over.
Add the cardamom pods, cinnamon, and sugar to the water and bring it to a boil.
