Where to buy matcha powder and how to choose it
- Currently, various types of matcha powder are widely available in baking ingredient stores, major supermarkets, or can be purchased online through e-commerce channels.
- Good quality matcha powder typically has a bright green color, a very soft and fine texture, and when tasted, it has a bitter taste on the tip of the tongue followed by sweetness. It should not be damp or clumpy, and when smelled, it has a slightly fishy scent similar to seaweed (due to the retention of minerals).
- You should avoid buying matcha powders that have a musty smell, have black spots mixed in, or are priced cheaply, as matcha powder is generally quite expensive, ranging from 1,400,000 VND to 6,000,000 VND per kg (price updated on November 26, 2021).
- Additionally, you can easily check the quality of matcha powder by adding it to water; if the powder completely dissolves in water, it indicates good quality. Conversely, if the powder clumps and does not dissolve, it may be of poor quality or counterfeit.
