Synopsis

Matcha is a Japanese green tea powder that is fondly referred to by teapigs as ‘a superhero among teas’, thanks to its natural antioxidant qualities. It is widely consumed in both food and drink in Japan, but has become extremely popular around the world as its health benefits and unique taste are embraced globally. 

This book uncovers the history behind this phenomenal green powder, looking at how matcha is specially grown, graded and ground. It also examines the health benefits of this super tea, which has been used for centuries by Buddhist monks to keep them focused during meditation, and how it is used today to flavour everything from chocolate to biscuits, bread to ice cream. 

Detailing the history of matcha, how it’s produced, its immense health benefits and its varied culinary uses, The Book of Matcha also features over 40 recipes that show you how to use this versatile and antioxidant ingredient at home.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

tea before teapigs

Back in 2006 the world of whole-leaf tea was boring, stuffy and outdated.

Meanwhile…cool things were happening in the world of coffee.

We saw the opportunity to get everyone drinking real tea again! And by real we mean big leaf and big on flavour. So, in November 2006 teapigs was born.

teapigs today

Our mission today is the same as it was back in 2006: to get everyone drinking top quality, whole-leaf, great tasting tea - and to do business a bit differently while we're at it.

All natural. No nasties. BIG leaf = BIG flavour. Simple!

You’ll find teapigs in lovely cafes and delis, food halls and grocers, hotels and restaurants up and down the UK… and in over 40 countries too! Our teas have won over 157 Great Taste Awards, we’ve been voted best brand 7 times by independent retailers.

We still love to see photos of our tea out and about, so if you spot us, please do share @teapigs #teapigs.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Matcha is a Japanese green tea powder that is fondly known by teapigs as ‘a superhero among teas’, thanks to its natural antioxidant qualities. It is widely consumed in both drink and food in Japan, but is becoming increasingly popular around the world as its health benefits and unique taste are embraced globally. Louise Cheadle and Nick Kilby uncover the history behind this phenomenal green powder, looking at how matcha is specially grown, graded and ground. They also examine the health benefits of this super tea, which has been used for centuries by Buddhist monks to keep them focused during meditation, and how it is used today to flavour everything from Kit Kats to Oreos, bread to ice cream. Matcha shots were served at New York Fashion Week in 2015, reflecting the growing popularity of this fascinating beverage, and many are predicting matcha will replace kale as the next big ‘superfood’. Detailing the history of matcha, how it’s produced, its immense health benefits and its varied culinary uses, The Book of Matcha also features over 40 recipes that show you how to use this versatile and antioxidant ingredient at home.
