How to brew thin Usucha green tea

matcha

วิธีการชงชาเขียว

หมายเหตุ วิธีการตามนี้จะไม่ใช่วิธีการชงตามพิธีชงชาของญี่ปุ่น

อุปกรณ์ที่ต้องมี (ตามรูปด้านล่าง)

1. Matcha-chawan (抹茶碗) ถ้วยสำหรับชงชา

2. Chasen (茶筅) เป็นไม้ไผ่ใช้สำหรับบดผงชาเขียวไม่ให้จับตัวเป็นก้อน

3. Chashaku (茶杓) เป็นไม้ไผ่ที่ใช้สำหรับตักผงชาเขียว

SONY DSC

วัตถุดิบ

1. Uji Matcha: Excellent ตักด้วย Chashaku 1 ช้อนครึ่ง (ประมาณ 1 ช้อนชา)

2. น้ำร้อนประมาณ 80C ปริมาตร 60 ml

ขั้นตอนการชง

1. ตักผงชามัทฉะใส่ในถ้วย

2. ค่อยๆเทน้ำร้อนตามลงไปบนผงมัทฉะ

3. ใช้ Chasen “ปัด” ให้ผงมัทฉะแตกตัวเข้ากับน้ำ โดยให้ทิศทางการปัดไปทางด้านหน้าสลับกับด้านหลัง จนไม่พบผงมัทฉะจับตัวเป็นก้อน (จะเห็นเป็นฟองสีเขียวละเอียดลอยอยู่ด้านบน)

4. เสิร์ฟในถ้วยชงชาได้เลย

วิธีการต้มน้ำให้ร้อนประมาณ 80C

1. ต้มน้ำจนเดือดที่อุณหภูมิ 100C

2. เทใส่ภาชนะ (เช่นถ้วยชา) ที่เตรียมไว้ อุณหภูมิน้ำจะลดลงมาประมาณ 10C

3. จากนั้นค่อยเทลงไปบนผงชามัทฉะตามขั้นตอนที่ 2 ก็จะได้น้ำร้อนอุณหภูมิประมาณ 80C พอดี

Tip: ผง มัทฉะนั้นจริงๆไม่ได้ละลายน้ำแต่จะแขวนลอยอยู่ในน้ำร้อน ดังนั้นเราจึงควรดื่มทันทีในระหว่างที่ผงมัทฉะยังแขวนลอยอยู่ก่อนที่จะตก ตะกอนลงไปด้านล่าง
