Matcha tea 40g
138312
The essence of the Japanese tea ceremony at the service of your culinary creations. This Matcha tea, carefully selected by Le Delas and sourced from Japan, is a green tea powder of exceptional fineness. Unlike infused teas, the tencha leaves are ground whole between stone mills, thus preserving the full intensity of their aromas and their vibrant emerald green colour. Renowned for its complex aromatic profile — blending fresh vegetal notes, a delicate bitterness and a deep umami flavour — this Matcha is the ingredient of choice for chefs and pastry chefs seeking authenticity.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary applications: In patisserie, it is the cornerstone of iconic desserts: financiers, cakes, whipped ganaches, macarons and artisanal ice creams. Its natural colouring power creates striking visuals without the need for artificial additives. In the kitchen, it blends boldly into sauces for white fish or green vegetable emulsions. As a beverage, it serves as the base for ‘Matcha Lattes' and other modern mixology creations.
► Preparation: For seamless incorporation, it is advisable to sieve the powder before use to avoid lumps. In drinks, whisk it with water at a maximum of 80°C to avoid burning the aromas and preserve its smoothness. In baking, incorporate it preferably into fatty ingredients (butter, cream) to set its colour and flavour.
► Storage: This product is extremely sensitive to air, heat and light. To maintain its freshness and vibrant green colour, store the 40g sachet in a cool, dry place, ideally in an opaque, airtight container. Refrigeration after opening is recommended to slow down oxidation.
