Matcha Recipes
Matcha is a finely ground powder of specially grown green tea leaves. The green tea plants used for matcha are grown in the shade for three to four weeks before harvesting, and the stems and veins are removed during processing.
Matcha is a more potent source of nutrients than steeped green tea. It is rich in antioxidants called polyphenols, which offer protection against heart disease and cancer, as well as better blood sugar regulation, blood pressure reduction, and anti-aging. Another polyphenol in matcha called EGCG can boost metabolism, and slow or halt the growth of cancer cells.
Matcha is not just used in tea and smoothies. Matcha is popular as an ingredient in muffins, puddings, stir fry and guacamole.
