Matcha Shortcake
Matcha Shortcake 抹茶ショートケーキ
As the coronavirus forces people to stay at home, we have a plenty of time. It is time to rethink food consumption and enjoy cooking with good ingredients. During our quarantine, our daughter had a birthday. Since we couldn't go out for dinner nor buy any gifts, we celebrated her birthday with just this cake. It was a small gift, but she really loves this cake and enjoyed it a lot. If you can get these basic ingredients (eggs, sugar, flour, milk, butter, cream, strawberries and Matcha), you can make it easily! For this recipe, we don't use baking powder. The cake will rise with only the power of eggs. Therefore, it is very important to beat the eggs well. The secret to get a very soft sponge cake is just this. Shortcake is the most loved cake in our country, Japan. Usually without Matcha. But if you add Matcha to it, it will be more luxurious and more special. We would be very happy if this recipe can become a new idea for somebody to celebrare his family's special day!
Chlorella Matcha
Matcha blended with chlorella, a green alga that contains a high chlorophyll content, which gives a vivid green color to the culinary creations. 100% natural. At high heat, Matcha starts to die off, but due to chlorella, this retains Matcha's vibrant green color after baking. Suitable for most food applications. Actually this grade is used by a lot of bakery companies and food makers.
