Hi everyone, it's Nami from Just one cookbook.
I hope you enjoy today's green tea cookie recipe.
In Japan green tea powder is called matcha, and I absolutely love it.
I have many Matcha recipes on my blog and one of my favorite dessert is Matcha cookies.
You can find matcha or green tea powder in Japanese grocery stores or online.
As you open the package, make sure the powder is beautiful rich green color,
and not yellowish green, because it means Matcha is old or lower quality.
As always, Thank you for watching my video.
If you enjoy, please give me thumb up, and share with your friends
and subscribe to my channel.
I'll see you guys soon.
Bye.
