Organic Matcha- Green Tea Powder by Kiss Me Organics

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

USED FOR:  LATTES | SMOOTHIES | BAKING


I love Matcha! Their different products are very healthy and natural. You never have to question the quality of Matcha's products. I got the chance to review Organic Matcha- Green Tea Powder, which is one product of theirs I have not had the chance to use. This particular product you use in Lattes, Smoothies, and in Baking!




 After seeing all the benefits I have to wonder why it has taken me so long!


  • ALL DAY ENERGY & FOCUS: Lift your vitality and concentration with the slow release natural energy from Organic Matcha
  • CALORIE BURNING BOOSTER: Support your weight loss goals with an all-natural way to increase your body's metabolism
  • LATTES | SMOOTHIES | BAKING: Kiss Me Organics Matcha Green Tea Powder arrives in an easy-to-use airtight health grade packaging allowing for as much or as little use as you need for any occasion. Enjoy a relaxing latte in the morning, bake a dozen cupcakes or simply add a small boost to your morning smoothie
  • 137x ANTIOXIDANTS OF BREWED GREEN TEA: USDA Organic Matcha Green Tea can only be used in a powdered form because, unlike brewed green tea, it contains the entire tea leaf which dramatically increases the nutritional content.
  • IMPROVED HAIR & SKIN HEALTH: Scientists have discovered Matcha Green Tea helps protect from harmful UVA/UVB rays as well as free radicals damage. 




I got all my goodies together and decided to whip myself up a smoothie.




Matcha Panna Cotta

The subtle grassy notes of quality matcha green tea powder and sweet warmth of Mexican vanilla bean combine with rich dairy to make this impressive (yet simple!) dessert. This is easiest to prepare the night before and let sit overnight, although it can be whipped up in about 6 hours if necessary.  



Ingredients

3 tsp unflavored granulated gelatin
1 vanilla bean (I used Mexican - Madagascar is fine)
1 3/4 cups heavy cream
1 3/4 cups whole milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 heaping tbsp Organic Matcha Green Tea Powder
Serves 6

Directions

1) Sprinkle the granulated gelatin over 2 tbsp cold water in a heatproof bowl. Once it has swollen and absorbed the liquid, heat a shallow pan of water over low heat and place the bowl over the pan, stirring as the gelatin melts.

2) Meanwhile, slice the vanilla bean down the middle and scrape out the seeds with a knife.

3) Put vanilla seeds into a pan with the milk & cream. Place pan over medium heat to bring to a boil. When just boiling, remove from heat and stir the sugar into the mixture.

4) Sift the matcha into the pan of milk, cream and sugar, whisking to break up any clumps. Allow to dissolve, then stir in the melted gelatin.

5) Set 6 small ramekins (I used teacups) onto a baking sheet and moisten the insides with a bit of water. Carefully distribute the matcha mixture into the ramekins, then let cool a bit (anywhere from 30 to 40 minutes should be fine).

6) Once cooled, cover each panna cotta with plastic wrap, pressing it down onto the top surface so to prevent a skin from forming, and allow to set in the refrigerator for about 6 hours (overnight is best).

7) To serve, run a butter knife around the edge of each panna cotta and gently turn over onto plates. Garnish with a bit of sifted powdered sugar & matcha.

Enjoy!
