How to Whisk Matcha
Matcha powder in a tin, a matcha whisk, a matcha scoop and a matcha bowl

You'll need matcha powder, a whisk, a scoop or measuring spoon, and a chawan (tea bowl) or other wide, shallow bowl.

The matcha ceremony is an elaborate art form, but with a little practice, making delicious, clump-free matcha is simple. To whisk great matcha at home, you’ll need:

• Matcha powder, preferably ceremonial grade (You can buy ceremonial-grade matcha powder from companies like Art of Tea and DoMatcha.)
• A matcha whisk (These are also available from many online tea retailers.)
• A matcha scoop or a 1/2 tsp measuring spoon
• A chawan (matcha bowl) or any wide, shallow bowl
