Publisher's Synopsis
Matcha green tea powder is perhaps the healthiest type of green tea you can find. It is characterized by a mild sweet aroma and an emerald-jade green color. Unlike the other teas, Matcha powder is much more powerful than other teas as it is not strained and uses the whole tea leaf.
Matcha tea is classified into two categories: drinking and cooking Matcha. The first one is used to make frothy tea while the cooking or culinary grade Matcha is used only for baking, smoothies and other food recipes. Matcha cookbooks offer a wide range of recipes, but only few of them offer the complete menu. Most Matcha cookbooks are filled with simple desserts or beverages, but only quality Matcha cookbooks show how to enjoy the Matcha green tea in many ways. All the recipes are gourmet recipes and the Matcha used is there only to improve the flavor as well as the whole dish appearance. Cooking with Matcha powder is not difficult, but instead rather simple. Matcha's aroma is not overpowering, but more subtle. Matcha green tea powder has a unique, special flavor, which makes every dish into something impeccable and different.
