From Brooklyn to Berlin, matcha is on the menu of every café and coffee shop – even starting to outsell coffee in many outlets. Matcha is a health drink, a social media status symbol, and a link to a culture that once seemed like it might disappear. It is also a surprisingly versatile ingredient.
Whether creating the iconic Strawberry Matcha Latte at home or dishing up an elegant Matcha Tiramisu, the 60 recipes in Meet Your Matcha offer something for everyone, from the matcha expert to the matcha curious.
Made from Japanese tea leaves grown in the shade to enhance colour and nutritional benefits, matcha is loved for both its grassy, earthy flavour and its health benefits. It has less caffeine than coffee and is packed with antioxidants. Matcha has everything: natural ingredients, proven health gains, iconic status, and versatility.
Meet Your Matcha shares the history and culture of matcha with expert tips on choosing and preparing it at home. The 4-colour photographs and 60 step-by-step recipes feature drinks, baking, desserts, sweet treats, and more — all in a beautiful gift package.
