Matcha Whisk and Scoop Made of Bamboo
Description
Matcha Whisk - Bamboo
This matcha whisk - known in Japanese as a Chasen - is needed to prepare matchas. The matcha whisk is made of bamboo and should be used according to the following instructions to ensure its longevity. A matcha spoon is also included with the matcha whisk, which allows for perfect dosing of the matcha.
Usage:
Before use, immerse the bristles of the matcha whisk in hot water for about 5-10 minutes to soften them. This will allow you to whisk the matcha extra creamy afterwards.
For one matcha, sift one to two heaped bamboo spoons of matcha powder into a bowl and pour about 80°C hot water over it. Then, whisk until frothy with the whisk for about 15-30 seconds, top up with the remaining water, and pour into a cup. For a weaker matcha, you can use a little more water or a little less matcha powder.
Cleaning:
To clean the whisk, simply rinse it under hot water, nothing more. The whisk is not suitable for dishwashers.
