CATEGORY: Cuisines

INGREDIENTS

  • Matcha Palitaw
  • • 1 cup mochi powder
  • • 2 Tbsp Aiya Culinary Grade Matcha
  • • 1 cup water
  • Black Sesame Rosewater Drizzle
  • • ¼ cup black sesame paste
  • • 1 tsp rosewater
  • • Rose petals
  • Matcha Black Sesame Garnish
  • • 1 tsp black sesame seeds
  • • 1 tsp dried shredded coconut
  • • ½ tsp Aiya Culinary Grade Matcha

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.
