Matcha in a terracotta mug
A matcha in a terracotta mug, #255 of 999. Rain Window light, napkin counter. Spiral on the surface. Special blend: Levitating. Scarce: Levitating. Rare, roast score 207.1.
The recipe
2 g matcha · 78 ml · 83 °C · whisk 16 s
- Sift 2 g of matcha into the bowl. Unsifted it clumps and no amount of whisking fixes it.
- Add 78 ml at 83 °C — boiling water makes it bitter — and whisk in a W, wrist only, until the surface is all fine foam.
- Pour into the mug straight away; it separates within a minute.
- The spiral is set on at the pass, not poured — there is no steamed milk in this one, so it is drawn in the foam with a pick.
