Green Tea: Matcha
Last Updated: Mar. 4, 2010
Matcha is a finely-powdered Japanese green tea made out of the same leaves that gyokuro is made from. The powder is added directly to water and steeped, and is not filtered out unlike most other teas. Brewed matcha has an opaque, bright-green color and strong flavor. Although the flavor of matcha closely resembles other green teas in many ways, the opacity of the brewed tea is unlike any other.
Because of its finely-powdered form, matcha is easily added to desserts, baked goods, and other foods in order to impart a strong green tea flavor. Matcha is also sometimes added or blended into green teas, including those available in teabags.
Matcha is typically made in Japan, although it is also made in other regions as well.
