Here are some tips to make delicious matcha ice cream: 1. Use high-quality matcha powder: The quality of the matcha powder you use will have a big impact on the flavor and color of your ice cream. Look for a high-quality culinary grade matcha powder that has a vibrant green color and a rich, full-bodied flavor. 2. Don't overheat the mixture: When making the ice cream base, be sure to heat it over low to medium heat and avoid bringing it to a boil. Overheating the mixture can cause the eggs to curdle and result in a grainy texture. 3. Chill the mixture thoroughly: After making the ice cream base, be sure to chill it thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least a few hours or overnight. This will help the mixture to thicken and will result in a smoother, creamier ice cream. 4. Use an ice cream maker: While it is possible to make ice cream without an ice cream maker, using one will result in a smoother and creamier texture. Follow the instructions for your specific ice cream maker and be sure to freeze the ice cream for a few hours after churning to help it set. did i miss anything? lmk in the comments 🍱 Want this recipe and more delicious Japanese desserts you might find in a Japanese cafe? consider joining the japanese cafe club. 🍵 Get $5 off your first order of organic powdered matcha or hojicha with code 'otona' https://www.alldayieat.com/product-ca... 🍵When you join as one of our newest cafe club members, get a free 100 gram bag ($25 value) of organic cooking matcha, from Shizuoka OR Kagoshima, your choice!
