- • 2 Tbsp Aiya Culinary Grade Matcha
- • 1 cup water
- Black Sesame Rosewater Drizzle

DIRECTIONS
- Matcha Palitaw
- 1. Mix the rice flour and Matcha in a bowl.
- 2. Add in water slowly until it forms a dough. Note you will probably not use all the water. Add in 1/2 cup of water and mix in the other water slowly until the dough forms.
- 3. Use an ice cream scoop to make equal rounds of dumplings.
- 4. Using a spoon, dip it in water and use the back of the spoon to create a crater in the dumpling. This will help pools the black sesame sauce later on.
- 5. Get water into a running boil and place the dumplings in the water one at a time. Once it floats to the top it’s done!
- Black Sesame Rosewater Drizzle
- 1. In a small bowl mix the black sesame paste and rosewater until fully combined. Drizzle on the Matcha Palitaw and sprinkle rose petals and garnish on top.
