Making Matcha

Making Matcha
Brewing Matcha powdered tea is very different than steeping tea leaves. You should have at least one special tool, a bamboo whisk called a chasen. Start with boiling water and two teacups .

Matcha is a fine powder made from tea leaves. The powdered leaf doesn't dissolve in the water, but is suspended in the liquid. Consequently, it is important to enjoy this drink before the tea powder settles to the bottom of the cup. To help prevent lumps, we recommend that you sift the Matcha through a fine strainer before whisking. While we prefer the traditional brewing method for Japanese tea, we recognize that there are others.
