Ingredients:
Sugar * 1 / 2 cup white
* 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
* 1 pinch sea salt
* 1 tbsp tablespoons matcha powder
* 2 cups skim milk
* 2 egg yolks beaten
* 1 tablespoon coffee vanilla extract
* 1 / 2 cup shortening
* 1 cup of green tea (sencha works very well)
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 pinch sea salt
* 4 eggs
Preparation time: 10 min
Cooking Time: 40-50 min
Instructions:
Cream:
In a small saucepan, combine 1 / 2 cup sugar, 5 tablespoons of flour, a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon of matcha powder. Stir in milk a little at a time, until smooth. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil 60 seconds, then pour a small amount of hot liquid in 2 egg yolks, and stir. Then return egg yolks now heated in the pan heat and stir until the mixture begins to boil again. Remove from heat, add vanilla. Cover and let cool in refrigerator. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. This step is done first so that the cream can be properly cooled when the dough is ready for filling.
Pastry:
In a medium saucepan, combine the shortening and green tea and bring to boil. Sift together 1 cup of flour and a pinch of salt and pour at once into boiling mixture. Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat and add eggs, one at a time, stirring vigorously after each addition. Drop by spoonfuls on a baking sheet, pipe or the desired shape.
Bake 10 minutes in preheated oven, then reduce heat to 400 degrees and cook 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely, split, fill with custard, and replace the tops.
