When the plants are only three to four inches high, they are harvested. Mesclun is available at fancy greengrocers. Of course, you can use your own mix of baby lettuces, such as lamb's lettuce, oak leaf, spinach greens, cress or rocket.

In a small bowl, whishk together tea, oil, vinegar and mustard until smooth. Stir in chives and season with salt and pepper. Toss mesclun with the vinaigrette in a large bowl. Scatter chive blossoms and raspberries over the top and serve.
