|  | What is the best way to break up my Pu-erh tea cake? 
 
				| We recommend the following steps: |  
					|  |  |  
					| Step 1 Always break a tea cake from the
 side as this is its softest part. Use
 a Pu-erh knife1 to pierce the side
 of the tea cake.
 | Step 2 Once thrusted inside, move the
 knife about 45 degrees upwards. This
 will break a chunk off the tea cake.
 |  
					|  |  |  
					| Step 3 You can now easily remove the
 loose chunk from the tea cake.
 | Using steam If the tea cake is exceptionally
 hard, use steam from boiling
 water to loosen the tea cake.
 |  1 A Pu-erh knife is a special tool with a pointed but blunt edge. You can use similar objects with hard pointed ends such scissors but please handle it with extreme care.
