Matcha tea is very well known tea all over the world, but mostly popular in Asian countries. Matcha is both sweet and grassy, with the pleasantly leafy taste of, again, green tea ice cream, especially when you mix it up in something sweet. The flavor is deep and concentrated, so don’t overpowder or it will end up bitter. It tastes great with chocolate chip cookies and little frosted sugar cookies.
Matcha, is perhaps the most refined tea available on the market today. From the unique way it is produced to the important place it holds in the cultural life of Japan, few other teas can compare. Matcha is being used in ice cream, cheese cakes, cream cheese spreads, white chocolate, latte beverages, hot chocolate etc. There is no limit to the recipes that matcha can be added to. Matcha green tea powder is a bright green color, it is of higher quality and much less processed than other teas. Unlike steeping and straining, matcha green tea powder consists of ground leaves.
Matcha is also a popular additive to soy or dairy milk, when it is sweetened with sugar. Matcha is a very aromatic drink. That is why its aroma also fades quickly. Matcha exposed to oxygen can easily become compromised. Oxidation smells like hay and affects colour and texture as well.
Matcha comes from gyokuro leaves that have been steamed and dried. All stems and veins are removed from the leaves. Matcha may also be mixed into to other forms of tea. For example it is added to genmaicha to form what is called matcha-iri genmaicha (literally roasted brown rice and green tea with added matcha). Matcha has a natural detoxifier built in - chlorophyll. It’s loaded with it!
Matcha powder is significantly different than other green tea powders. First its taste is much sweeter and smoother due to the fact it lacks the bitter tannins of other green tea powders. Matcha combined with cashew cream makes a lovely blended drink. Matcha is an integral, interwoven part of the religion, the meditation and ceremonies.
