Thanks to its rich flavor, this matcha is ideal for cooking and baking. Of course, you can
also use a matcha whisk to prepare it as the popular matcha tea.
The art of preparing a perfect cup of matcha tea consists of a few simple but important steps:
Boil
fresh, preferably soft water. Let the water cool
to around 80°C (e.g., open the kettle, wait 10 minutes, or pour the water 4–5 times into another container—each time you pour, the water loses about 4–5°C).
Place
1 g of matcha (2 bamboo spoons or ½ teaspoon) into a matcha bowl (or suitable bowl) Pour
in approx. 80 ml of water (80°C) Whisk the tea with a matcha whisk (chasen) until frothy. This takes approx. 15 seconds.
