To avoid clumps of matcha powder in the batter, rub the matcha powder into the sugar until evenly distributed before adding it to the mochiko. And, it turns out, the order you mix them doesn't really make much difference in the final baked cake (though the order in the recipe below makes mixing just a bit easier).
#GREEN TEA MOCHI FULL#
You need this book in your kitchen.Ī full box of mochiko, a full stick of butter, a full can of coconut milk + matcha, eggs, milk, sugar, baking powder. This is a theme for all the recipes I've tried in Aloha Kitchen: super flavorful and super approachable. Unlike some recipes, Alana's butter mochi doesn't require any evaporated milk, which makes the recipe all that much more approachable. With only about 5 minutes of active time, butter mochi cake could not be any easier to make. The center is sticky and chewy in a way that makes people say aloud, "what is this?" while going back for more and messaging you the next day for the recipe. As it sits, the topping softens into a caramel-like toasted coconut blanket on the second day. Shredded coconut on top creates a crisp toasted coconut shell and holds little bits of flaky salt. Earthy matcha adds nuttiness that balances with the sweet coconuty sticky rice cake. This matcha mochi cake is all at once savory and sweet. As a traditional dessert found at any Hawaiian party, butter mochi cake feeds a crowd and is so super simple to whip up. That's the great thing about this recipe. Fortunately, we had a preschool co-op meeting with 60ish hungry parents that night. To get the mixing process nailed down, I made two pans of this matcha mochi cake in one day. And with this matcha mochi recipe, Matcha March 2020 is finally underway! This spin on her recipe combines two of my all-time favorite dessert elements into one super dessert: matcha and mochi. Or hunker down in your kitchen to make it smell and taste like Hawai'i. Every single beautifully photographed recipe will give you the itch to travel. Her cookbook is filled with 85 recipes from the cultures influencing Hawai’i and was named one of the best cookbooks of 2019 by NPR and NYT. Also follow her blog for all the butter mochi inspiration! Here I've given it a Matcha March twist by adding a heavy dose of matcha to the batter. The original butter mochi is the stuff of dreams. This recipe comes very slightly adapted from the Butter Mochi recipe in my friend Alana's latest cookbook Aloha Kitchen. It's also become her morning ritual to ask to dip a finger in my matcha (which, she'll tell you, is decidedly better than daddy's coffee). For matcha has become part of her daily lexicon.
This was my proud mama moment of the day.
The three other kids at the art table exchanged puzzling glances. When I was working at her preschool earlier this week, Zoella powderized a piece of green chalk through a mesh sifter and announced to everyone, "this looks like matcha!!" She giggled wildly, pleased with her observation. From Alana Kysar's Aloha Kitchen (with matcha added), butter mochi cake could not be any easier to make with only about 5 minutes of active time! Sweet chewy sticky butter mochi cake with earthy nutty matcha notes and a crisp toasted coconut topping holding bits of flaky salt. Matcha mochi cake is all at once savory and sweet.
