GREEN-TEA TRUFFLES



Green-Tea Truffles image

We don't often call on white chocolate, but when we do, we've got our reasons. In this case, we use it with creamy ganache and sweetened matcha, or green-tea powder. The tea's subtle sharpness reins in the sweetness of the white chocolate, and its natural color adds an unexpected soft green hue. As for tea's antioxidant properties, there may not be enough of the green here to protect you from cancer and heart disease, but what is there can't hurt! This recipe was inspired by Mary's Chocolates of Belgium, experts in high-quality chocolates with artful designs.

GREEN TEA GANACHE



Green Tea Ganache image

The vanilla notes found in white chocolate enhance the natural flavor of green tea. Martha made this recipe on episode 508 of Martha Bakes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes enough for 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 3

5 ounces white chocolate, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons heavy cream
2 teaspoons matcha

Steps:

  • Combine white chocolate and cream in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Heat, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, until chocolate is almost completely melted. Remove from heat and continue to stir until remaining chocolate is melted and mixture is thoroughly combined.
  • In a small bowl, combine matcha with cold water, adding one teaspoon at a time to reach same consistency as white chocolate ganache. Add green tea mixture to ganache; stir until incorporated. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. If ganache remains too loose to pipe, briefly stir over an ice bath until thick enough to pipe, being careful not to let it become too firm.

GREEN TEA BUTTERCREAM

A basic buttercream gets an earthy infusion with the addition of fragrant matcha powder. Martha made this recipe on episode 508 of Martha Bakes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes     Fillings & Frostings     Buttercream Frosting Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 cups, enough for 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup sugar
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon matcha, to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice bath. Combine sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium-high heat until sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer syrup to ice bath, stirring occasionally, until syrup is cool to touch, 15 to 20 minutes. (Syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.)
  • In an electric mixer, cream butter on medium-high until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. While mixing, slowly add syrup into butter and continue mixing on medium-high until mixture comes together, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Reduce speed to low and add matcha. Store buttercream at room temperature if using the same day, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before using.

Tips:

  • To make the ganache, you can use either green tea powder or green tea leaves. If using leaves, be sure to grind them into a fine powder before using.
  • When making the ganache, be sure to use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the ganache will be.
  • To get a smooth ganache, be sure to stir it constantly while it is melting. This will help to prevent the chocolate from burning or becoming grainy.
  • If the ganache is too thick, you can thin it out with a little bit of cream or milk. If the ganache is too thin, you can thicken it up by adding more chocolate.
  • Once the ganache is made, you can use it to fill cakes, cupcakes, or tarts. You can also use it as a glaze or frosting.

Conclusion:

Green tea ganache is a delicious and versatile treat that can be used in a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Whether you are a fan of green tea or just looking for a new and exciting dessert, green tea ganache is sure to please.
