Chocolate Matcha Truffles
- 200 grams Chocolate (couverture and white)
- 90 grams Heavy cream
- 10 grams Mizuame
- 5 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp Matcha
- 1 Matcha (for coating)
- Line the mold with kitchen parchment paper.
- If you are using a block of chocolate, chop or shave it finely.
- Put the cream and syrup in a small pan, and start heating over low heat.
- When the syrup has dissolved, turn the heat off right away.
- Sift the matcha in using a tea strainer, and mix well.
- Heat again over low heat while stirring.
- Turn the heat off just before it comes to a boil.
- Add the chocolate after the heat is turned off, and mix.
- Melt the chocolate with residual heat only.
- If you try to heat it at this stage, the mixture will split!
- It's melting.
- When it's well mixed, add the butter and keep mixing.
- Keep mixing.
- Pour the mixture into the mold.
- Cover with plastic film and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours or so until set firmly.
- When the chocolate mixture has hardened, take it out of the mold and cut into pieces.
- Coat with matcha and they're done.
- You can also roll them into balls to make round truffles.
