1 tablespoon MATCHAZUKI medium-grade matcha powder (for sprinkling on top)
5 grams fresh butter

วิธีการทำ

Instructions
1. Prepare the Chocolate-Coating:
– Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir to evenly distribute the heat. If needed, microwave for an additional 30 seconds and stir again.
– Add the fresh butter to the melted chocolate and stir until well combined.
– Once the butter has fully melted into the chocolate, sift in the matcha powder and mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.

2. Prepare the Strawberries:
– Take the strawberries from the freezer and remove their stems. Insert a skewer into the base of each strawberry (not too deep) to make it easier to dip.
– Dip each strawberry into the matcha chocolate mixture, ensuring it is well coated. Freezing the strawberries beforehand helps the chocolate set more quickly, giving a smooth and even coat.

3. Finish the Dipped Strawberries:
– Once the chocolate begins to harden, lightly sift additional matcha powder over the strawberries using a fine sieve. This will enhance the green tea flavor and make the strawberries even more visually appealing.
– For a polished finish, sprinkle more matcha powder on the plate before arranging the strawberries, or slice the strawberries in half to reveal the beautiful interior. To ensure a clean cut without damaging the matcha chocolate, use a knife that has been heated in hot water and wiped dry before slicing.

4. Optional – Presenting as a Gift:
– If you wish to gift these beautiful strawberries, arrange them in a decorative box and tie a ribbon for an extra touch of elegance. For optimal freshness, place a small amount of dry ice in the box to keep the matcha chocolate cool, preventing it from melting too quickly.
