Culinary-grade matcha is a versatile form of green tea powder, specifically designed for cooking and baking purposes. Unlike ceremonial or premium grades, which are intended for traditional tea drinking, culinary-grade matcha has a more robust and slightly bitter flavor profile, making it ideal for incorporating into recipes. This type of matcha is made from later harvest tea leaves, resulting in a stronger taste and darker color, which holds up well in mixed ingredients. It’s an excellent choice for adding a unique, earthy green tea flavor to dishes like smoothies, baked goods, and savory meals, providing both a distinctive taste and a boost of antioxidants.
