Japanese
Matcha
The
ultimate green tea... Special shade-grown tea plants are carefully cultivated
and harvested and their leaves pulverized into a fine powder. Matcha,
the tea of the Japanese "Tea Ceremony" is whisked with hot
water and drunk as a frothy, deep green beverage. Because of its powdered
form, matcha also has many culinary uses such as green tea ice cream,
cheesecake, cookies, health drinks, tea lattes and frappuccinos.

PREPARATION:
To
prepare Japanese Matcha, place approximately 1 teaspoon of powdered tea
per cup (8 oz) and cover with hot (but less than boiling) water and whisk
vigorously. To get a better mix, you can add just a bit of water to make
a paste of the tea powder to start and then add the rest and stir well.
For culinary use, add to your favorite baking recipes for green tea color
and flavor.
