Description
Derived from the intricate Japanese tea ceremony, matcha is prepared by using a special matcha scoop to put the powder in a bowl and then add about 6 oz of water (170 degrees F). The whisk, which should be soaked and rinsed beforehand to prevent splitting, is used to beat the powder into a froth for about 20 seconds (by making an “M” motion with the wrist).
The bowl is picked up with both hands and enjoyed.
