Cooking Grade Matcha is blended for food and beverages, providing color, aroma, and nutritional benefits to your favorite drinks and treats.
- People often mistakenly think that higher or more expensive grades of Matcha are the best to use when it comes to making recipes. However, while a higher quality tea is better on its own, this doesnt hold true for cooking.
- A truly high-quality cooking grade Matcha should have a stronger tea flavor than a drinking grade, allowing the Matcha flavor to shine through when mixed with other ingredients.
- Most would consider it slightly too astringent when consumed solely with water, this grade is perfect for making Matcha flavored desserts and beverages.
- All of Blue Moon's Matacha is produced in the Nisho region of Aichi prefecture, Japan, where the finest Matcha has been grown for over 800 years.
- Each 100g (3.5oz) bag is good for a number of recipes. For example, only around 2g (1/2 tsp) is needed to flavor drinks, and around 1-2 Tbsp to flavor a batch of baked goods.
