Seasonal Green Tea Tapioca Pudding Recipe

Introduction

Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique dish that perfectly captures the essence of the changing seasons. This recipe combines unexpected flavors and textures to create a delightful culinary experience that is sure to impress your taste buds.

Preparation

Ingredients:

• green tea leaves (2 tbsp)
• honey (1/4 cup)
• black sesame seeds (1 tbsp)
• goji berries (1/4 cup)
• coconut milk (400 ml)
• tapioca pearls (100 g)

Kitchen Tools:

• saucepan
• strainer
• wooden spoon

I start by brewing a strong cup of green tea and letting it cool to room temperature. In a saucepan, I combine the brewed tea with coconut milk, honey, and tapioca pearls, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. I stir continuously with a wooden spoon to prevent the pearls from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Once the pearls are translucent and cooked through, I remove the pan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

Next, I strain the mixture to remove any solid bits and pour it into individual serving bowls. I top each bowl with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds and a handful of goji berries for a pop of color and added texture.

Tips

For an extra layer of flavor, try infusing the coconut milk with a vanilla bean or a cinnamon stick before adding it to the tapioca pearls. This will give the dish a warm, comforting aroma that pairs beautifully with the earthy green tea and nutty black sesame seeds.
