Traditional Matcha Preparation

Traditional Matcha

• Sift the desired amount of matcha through a fine sieve.*
• Warm the chawan (bowl) with hot water.
• Discard the water and then wipe the bowl with a clean cloth.
• Depending on the desired intensity, place between 1 and 2 g (1/2 to 1 tsp) of matcha in the center of the bowl.
• Carefully pour 65 to 100 ml of 75°C water over the tea.
• Whisk vigorously with a chasen (matcha whisk) for about 30 seconds until a smooth foam forms.

* Optional . Matcha powder keeps better in the refrigerator, and sifting it will make the mousse smoother and prevent lumps from forming.
