뜻
Preparing tea.
문화적 배경
Tea is often served with 'skiver' (slices of bread) during 'kveldsmat'. It is a symbol of winding down after a long day. In Northern Norway, tea (often black and strong) is a staple in the 'lavvu' (traditional tent), sometimes served with dried reindeer meat. Specialty tea shops in Oslo have made 'å lage te' a more artisanal activity, focusing on temperature and leaf quality. The 'te-pause' is a legitimate reason to step away from the computer and socialize, even if you don't drink coffee.
Use 'lage' for everything
When in doubt in the kitchen, 'lage' is almost always the right verb for preparing anything.
The 'Te' vs 'Kaffe' divide
While coffee is king, offering tea is seen as more 'koselig' (cozy) in the evening.
