ARF/5-A-Day Tuesday: Yogurt with green tea powder

Posted on | March 4, 2008 |

Wonder what the picture is? It looks like a mass of fungi growing but actually they’re not. The green ones are powdered Japanese green tea or matcha. With all the antioxidant boost from tea, it does make yogurt even more healthier! I learned about green tea ice cream from a Japanese colleague at Colorado State where I stayed for a few months. He had lots of green tea powder straight from his grandmother’s farm back in Japan and shared them with me. It made my ice cream nights better. So back home, I always ask friends who go to Japan to buy me a pack or two. Matcha also goes well with yogurt, freshly made from my university’s dairy farm.
