How to prepare a perfect matcha latte
1. Sift about 2g of matcha into a chawan (2g is roughly two well-filled bamboo teaspoons).
2. Add a small amount of hot water (maximum 80°C, not boiling) and stir with the bamboo whisk to create a dense, smooth, green paste.
3. Add the rest of the hot water, about 30ml, and whisk energetically in a zigzag motion for about 20 seconds.
4. Slow down the whisking speed, and do it gently over the surface to remove large bubbles and create a smooth, creamy green layer.
5. Finally, add your favorite milk to the dissolved matcha and enjoy ;)
