Yummy green

I love matcha! I've discovered it a few years ago, when I saw it in a new teashop and decided to buy it. Matcha is a high quality green tea powder using finely ground tea leaves instead of whole or crushed tea leaves. It is not only used in the Japanse tea ceremonies but it's also great to make tasty and original desserts.  I regulary prepare a green tea and almond cake for my shop CHOOSY.


For our NY'eve dessert last December we made a pretty cool dessert. We were looking for something yummy and not too heavy and luckily I just happened to have bought the new the kitchen aid cookbook (that really has some cool recipes) and there we found it : white chocolate & green tea bavarois with an elderflower granité, perfect.


Good to know is that matcha is a great antioxidant, a calorie burner, a detox deluxe and an energy booster, sooo healthy thus. Ohw one last thing : I read somewhere that you can also make a kind of latte with matcha, I must try that one of these days :-)
