    Thanks for the chance to win! I have always been big on baking but recently started using more “exotic” ingredients like black sesame, tahini, miso and matcha. Would love to use the matcha in a more traditional way with these tools

    Hi My name is Sarah. I got to know your blog from the Youtube channel. I like Japanese foods so I often looking for recipes from youtube channels. I usually drink Green tea latte from Starbucks in the morning. I became big fan of green tea. I found out the green tea helps anti aging and good for skin. I wondered how I can make it at home. Thankfully, I found the recipe from your channel. I thought it would be so nice that I can use the kit to make the matcha like you showed on the blog. I can’t wait to start every morning with sweet matcha!

    Thank you for sharing the shoyu ramen recipe. I made it today, and my family love it’s. My son just came back from Chofu Japan couples weeks ago and he love the food over there and he already miss the food. I’m start to learn all these new recipe from your post. Especially when we live in small town it is very hard to fine a good Japanese restaurant especially the ramen noodles.

So this worldwide giveaway is heaven sent, not only because it is matcha – it happens to be valid worldwide and since I am up here in the Nordic countries I am quite far away. Yeay to this giveaway.

My mother had a sensei in Japan for Tea Ceremonies and was part of a group of lovely women who continues to study the art of Tea Ceremonies in San Francisco. Seeing this brought back many memories of my mother and the other ladies and how beautiful and graceful the ceremony is. I would like to sign up for this precious giveaway. Hope I’m going this correctly. Thank you.

    I’ve been wanting to make a proper matcha since forever! I love the smooth silky texture of preparing matcha using the bamboo whisk.

    Two things I remember from when my mother in law first introduced me to the Japanese tea ceremony: I had trouble remembering which way to turn the Chawan and I didn’t like the taste of the bitter tea. It took the bubble tea movement years later for me to try matcha again. Now I bake and make mochi with it quite regularly and enjoy it’s flavor. The matcha starter set will be a good incentive for me to try matcha as a drink again.

    I’m so glad to have found your online cook book recently. There’s always a story behind each dish or a background information about the dish. I particularly like the photos with each step, so I know I’m on the right track. It’s delightful just to browse through your website.

    I only just came back from a three week trip to Japan, and can I just say the tea ceremony has to be one of the most beautiful and peaceful experiences I have ever had!

    Hi Nami,

    I am vegan and am looking for some vegan recipes that you may have. I love the matcha latte which came out really delicious. My husband and I just made a matcha frappe with ice, honey and soy milk.

    Thak you for sharing your recipes and hope to find more vegan options in the future.

    Regards
    Susan

    Hi! I would just like to say that I’m so happy I found your website. This past summer I completed a study abroad program in Japan and completely fell in love with the food. Now I’m back home and miss it terribly so I’m constantly trying to make Japanese dishes at home!

    During my trip I had a practice tea ceremony where I learned some of the etiquette as well as how to make the tea (although mine didn’t come out very great, talk about a sore wrist!). It was an amazing experience. Thank you for the opportunity to win this set! [email protected]

    Newsletter subscriber. A balloon whisk just doesn’t work well enough in dissolving the matcha. I definitely need to go buy a chasen.
