Au menu, aujourd’hui – Le thé matcha
A story about la pâtisserie, illustration, japan, matcha, tea, what should I make. Written on le Friday 29 April 2011.
[On the menu today - Matcha green tea]
On a summer day of two-thousand and five, I remember driving on those small roads in between Biot and Valbonne. With something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue*.
I remember the tiny black metal box. Mariage Frère.
I remember the even smaller packet of green powder.
On a spring day of two-thousand and eleven, I have matcha ice-cream in my freezer. Of the homemade kind. With lots of full-fat milk and cream, just so.
So what should I make? And perhaps, most importantly, what is your favourite green tea recipe?
Loading ...* Old, the seemingly supportive boyfriend; new, being a blogger; borrowed, a Leica camera; and blue, a top.

Most of time, I’m cooking financiers with matcha tea but I’m dying to try your cheesecake recipe!

Your new site is so beautiful! May I ask if you do all the drawings? They are just so lovely!
Have you ever tried matcha ice cream? Surprisingly easy to make! Maybe one more thing to add to your growing list. Keep up the great work! :)

My folks are so fond of matcha, that every six weeks or so my grocery list includes a little silver tin from Selfridge & Co’s third aisle. Love your blog….followed you over from Foodbeam, finally!
