Matcha green tea macarons is one of the most popular macaron flavors and for good reason. Green tea and white chocolate filling is a great pairing, especially so for those who find macarons to be "too sweet". The astringency from the matcha powder will help to balance out the sweetness.

To get started with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook matcha (green tea) macaron using 6 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Matcha (Green Tea) Macaron:
  1. Prepare 100 g powdered sugar
  2. Make ready 60 g almond powder

Matcha is finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea leaves, traditionally consumed in East Asia. It is special in two aspects of farming and processing: the green tea plants. Matcha DNA® Green tea is organically grown and hand-picked. It can be made as delicious tea, latte, martini or used in food like green tea ice cream and cooking.

Instructions to make Matcha (Green Tea) Macaron:
  1. Push the almond powder through a tamis and then add the powdered sugar and the matcha. Then sift them together.
  2. Beat the egg white, adding the granulated sugar in two times, and beat them until stiff peaks form.
  3. Add the powders into the egg white, I usually do it in two times. With a spatula, try to turn the mixture over so that the foam won't break down too much.
  4. When it's roughly mixed, do the "macaronage". Using a skepper, push the mixture onto the bowl to break the extra bubbles. It's done when the surface is shiny and it drops smoothly but not too liquid.
  5. Put it in a piping bag. Use a silicon sheet for macarons if you have. If not, use the baking sheet. I also put a sheet of carton paper under the baking (or silicon) sheet. Pipe the dough on the sheet, keep it upright, until about 2 cm. Keep enough distance to other macarons.
  6. Leave them for several hours to dry until they make skins. It takes many hours in the humid weather.
  7. Bake in the oven preheated at 160 degree C for about 13-4 minutes. They make cracks when the lower heat is too strong, and they bust when the upper heat is weak, so I put them on the top position (very close to the ceiling of the oven). Turn the board in the middle of the baking.
  8. Cool them down and remove from the sheet. Spread the bean paste or ganache on a macaron coque and bind with another. Enjoy!

Few people know that the current practice of drinking powdered tea in the Japanese tea ceremony is actually from the Song dynasty in China. Matcha is a type of powdered green tea. It is very high in antioxidants, and has numerous health benefits for your body and brain. Because the whole leaf powder is ingested, matcha is even higher in some substances — such as caffeine and antioxidants — than green tea.
