Matcha Hot Chocolate
Your tip for February 27, 2006
I found this recipe in the San Jose Mercury News on line. It sounded interesting and I tried it. Really delicious. I pass it on to allyou chocolate lovers.
MATCHA HOT CHOCOLATE
Makes 2 demitasse servings
1 cup half-and-half
1 teaspoon matcha powder (the powdered green tea is available at Japanese markets)
4 ounces white chocolate, grated
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, warm half-and-half, stirring often to prevent sticking, until it is very hot.
Remove from heat and sprinkle in matcha and then the white chocolate. Allow white chocolate to melt, about 1 minute.
Using an immersion blender, mix until thoroughly combined and the liquid is frothy. Pour into 2 demitasse cups, and serve immediately.
Note: Milk can be substituted for half-and-half, although it will need to be stirred more often to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
You can double the recipe without a problem.
