Dalgona Matcha
5 min
Dalgona Matcha is a real treat for all the matcha lovers out there. It has the strength and earthiness of green tea but with the addition of sweeteners - all this is nicely balanced into a creamy and foamy drink. Keep in mind that for this, as well as for any other matcha preparation, you must have high-quality Ceremonial grade matcha.
The texture of Dalgona Matcha can best be described as velvety, creamy, and foamy. Dalgona matcha is rich in volume, thanks to aquafaba (water from cooking chickpeas or the one that comes in a can of chickpeas). Firm foam is made from it, with a little sugar to strengthen the foam but also to balance the taste, and the matcha, which we previously stir in a (very) little warm water. The final result is a cloudy green foam-like drink with a perfect matcha taste.
