Preparation & Care

Traditional Usucha (Thin Tea) Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1-1.5 tsp high-quality Ceremonial grade matcha
  • 2-3 oz (60-90 ml) hot water (175°F / 80°C)

Equipment:

  • Matcha bowl
  • Bamboo matcha whisk (chasen)

Instructions:

  • Preheat your matcha bowl: Pour hot water into the tea bowl, swirl it around to warm the sides, then discard the water.
  • Add 1-1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder to the warmed matcha Chawan.
  • Carefully pour 2-3 ounces of warm water (175°F or 80°C) over the matcha powder.
  • Using your bamboo whisk, whisk the matcha and water together in a zig-zag motion until a frothy layer forms on the surface.

Tip: The key to a perfect usucha is in the whisking! Whisk briskly and continuously until you achieve a smooth, frothy consistency with minimal lumps.

Remember: Making usucha is an art that takes practice. Adjust your Japanese green matcha powder and water quantities to find your perfect balance and preferred taste.

Care Instructions

Chawan Matcha Bowl

Wash gently with warm water and mild dish soap. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents. Do not place it in the dishwasher or microwave. This will help prevent damage to the glaze or cracking. Allow the Japanese matcha bowl to air dry completely before storing.

Bamboo Whisk (Chasen)

Rinse with warm water immediately after use to remove any matcha residue. Avoid soap or soaking the whisk, as it can damage the chasen bamboo matcha whisk. Shake off excess water and allow the whisk prongs to air dry in the whisk holder to maintain its shape. Store in a dry place to prevent mold or warping and help maintain them in perfect condition. Inspect the whisk regularly for the best results and replace it when the prongs become brittle or break.

Ceramic Whisk or Chasen Holder

Wipe clean with a damp cloth or rinse with mild soap and warm water. Ensure it is completely dry before placing the whisk on it.

Tip: To preserve the set's longevity and appearance, store it in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight.
