How to properly maintain your Matcha Whisk - Chasen?
To properly maintain a long matcha whisk (Chasen) and extend its lifespan, follow these essential tips:
Before use: Soak the Chasen in hot water for a few minutes to soften the strands and make them more resistant.
After each use: Immediately rinse the whisk with warm water without using soap, to prevent the matcha from sticking to the bamboo strands. Gently shake it under water to remove residue.
Dry properly: Let it air dry naturally. Position it with the strands facing down to prevent water from collecting in the base.
Avoid humidity: Do not leave the Chasen and its ring in a humid or closed environment, as this could cause the bamboo to mold.
These simple steps help preserve the effectiveness and quality of your matcha whisk, guaranteeing perfect foam with every preparation.
Bamboo, as a natural material, offers an estimated lifespan of around 300 uses for a matcha whisk, depending on how well it is maintained. Good care and regular cleaning can extend its longevity while maintaining its effectiveness.
Recipe and preparation of Traditional Matcha
The preparation of a Traditional Matcha follows precise steps, respecting the ancestral Japanese art of the tea ceremony.
Ingredients and materials:
- Large bowl for whisking matcha
- Bamboo whisk (chasen)-
- Bamboo measuring spoon (chashaku)
- Hot water (simmering, between 70°C and 80°C)
- Matcha Premium Ceremony
Preparation steps:
1. Heat the bowl (optional but recommended)
Before you begin, pour hot water into the matcha bowl to warm it up. This helps maintain the right temperature of the tea. Pour out the water and dry the bowl with a clean cloth.
2. Measure the matcha
Use about 1-2 chashaku scoops (or 1 teaspoon) of matcha powder. You can sift the powder before adding it to the bowl for an even smoother mixture.
3. Add hot water
Add about 60 to 80 ml of hot water (between 70°C and 80°C) to the bowl. The amount of water can vary depending on the desired thickness of the tea:
Usucha (light matcha): 1 to 2 chashaku spoons or 1 teaspoon of matcha for 60-80 ml of water.
Koicha (thick matcha): More powder (2-3 teaspoons) with less water (40-50 ml).
4. Whisk the matcha
Use the bamboo whisk (chasen) to mix the powder and water. Hold the whisk with a light hand and start whisking vigorously, forming an "M" or "W" shape with your movement. Continue until you get a fine, homogeneous foam on the surface.
Usucha : The mixture should have a light texture, with a thin layer of foam.
Koicha : No foam, but a thicker, almost creamy texture.
5. Taste
Once the matcha is well whisked, it is ready to be consumed. Hold the bowl with both hands and savor slowly in several sips.
Additional tips:
Use good quality water so that the taste of the matcha is not altered.
Water temperature is essential: water that is too hot can make the matcha bitter.
Take the time to whisk well to obtain a perfect texture, especially if you want a very frothy usucha.
This simple, yet precise ritual allows you to get the most out of the aromas and benefits of matcha.
