This Honey Green Tea or Matcha Jelly is another healthy and an easy to do dessert. I didn't add any filling like red bean/azuki paste into the jelly as I prefer to have the light delicate refreshing green tea and honey flavour. They taste so perfect after chilling. I poured the jelly into a 8 inch square pan and sliced it before serve. But if you're leaving the jelly at room temperature for more than 30 minutes, it is better to make the jelly into serving cups as gelatine can melt easily in our hot weather. Although I've added little agar agar powder into it, the jelly was still very soft. If you're a great of fan of green/matcha tea, have a try on this jelly. I'm sure you will love it. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend :)

ReplyDeleteYes, like the Poka Green tea huh? Have a try on this recipe :)

ReplyDeleteCan do the same with just agar agar powder, without the gelatine powder?
ReplyDeleteSure. Use one and the half teaspoon to replace the gelatine.
DeleteI haven't tried this b4 but I can imagine that I'll certainly like it! Combining both the agar-agar powder & gelatine powder is new to me too, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteJessie, combining the two types of powder together make the jelly more firm but I think I did not add enough agar agar powder into it. But it is all right to serve in cups, the soft jelly really taste good.
DeleteQuick, easy, and delicious.

ReplyDeleteHi Kah Chin, wonder how much gelatin have you added? I always like to add some agar agar powder together with the gelatin, to get a little firm texture.
DeleteThe color just attracts me!!! Truly inviting dessert! :)

Thanks Joyce. Will take a look later. :)
DeleteAnother beautiful jelly from you. Sometimes it is nice just to have it plain without filling. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Biren :)
Deletethis looks awesome. My son doesn't like honey. So rather than using white sugar, can I use brown sugar mix with gula melaka (dark palm sugar)? I wonder what this would taste like? of course, these sugars will change the colour of the jelly.
ReplyDeleteHi Violet,
DeleteVery sorry that I've missed your comment.
You can add white sugar to replace honey but not gula melaka. I think gula melaka will cover up the match flavour.
Hi Ann,
ReplyDeleteLike to ask you one qu. I did the Honey Green Tea Jelly with gelatine (add more agar agar powder according to your ans to one of the fans).
But the jelly that I do out, it have a layer of darker colour at the bottom, why it is like that. It looks diff from your picture.
Are you able to explain. It still taste ok, just my family ask why there is diff colour..
Thanks
Wendy
Hi Wendy,
DeleteThe problem with the darker colour at the bottom is because the green tea powder cannot easily dissolved in hot water that was why I said 'strain liquid'. It is better to use a fine sieve or you can use those oil strainer paper for kitchen so that the powder will not go through it after boiled.
Thanks for the highlight.
Hi, can you tell me how many servings are made whit those ingredients?
ReplyDeleteI don't quite remember how many pieces I cut, think around 20 pieces but also depends how big the sizes you want.
