Preparation Steps
Prepare the Cardamom Black Tea Caviar
In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add black tea leaves and cardamom pods. Let it steep for about 5 minutes, then strain the mixture. Allow to cool slightly.
Create the Tea Caviar
Using a dropper, drop the cooled tea mixture into a bowl of cold oil (about 1 cup). Let it sit for 5 minutes to form caviar-like beads.
Prepare the Salad
Chop the tomatoes and herbs, and combine them in a large bowl.
Make the Dressing
In a separate bowl, mix tamarind paste, creme fraiche, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Combine and Serve
Pour the dressing over the tomato and herb mixture. Toss gently to combine, then top with the cardamom black tea caviar before serving.
