Madeleine de Proust?

And this is today's breakfast.

The memories what awaken weren't about my childhood, maybe it because the tea was wrong.

Thank you (Iw)LiT, for giving me the funny title & wiki links.

Here is a clever idea for making Matcha Late without special tool = a bamboo whipper. Try it when you found Matcha tea powder :-)
Thank you Ms cava_cavien :-) :-) :-)

> kmr2069,
Hello, thank you for leaving here a sweet comment :-)

> Mik Photo's
The tea leaf is maybe same but green tea which I had was Matcha/Maccha, it is powder of green tea. We have special bamboo tea whipper, mix the powder & hot water by the whipper.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maccha
I added foramed milk onto the Matcha tea the morning, like cappuccino, it's yummy :-)

> Watari Goro
Thank you!
OK, I'll bring green tea for you when I visit Hawaii next time :-D

And thank you for everyone who added this picture on to the favourite list.
Seems I made a mistake. My friend kindly taught me it that I should have shown the top of madeleine when serving it, this is oppsite. Sorry, please overlook my mistake because I'm Japanese who doesn't know French manners well ;-)

Hola! Thank you for leaving kindly comment from Spain!!

In fact, I tried reading it again and again but gave up ;-).
Too complicated for me...

>lilivanderhulst
Hello! Thank you for kindly comment :-)
The green is colour of tea leaf, so the taste is a bit bitter but it's common in Japan. We love useing it as flavour for icecream, cake or chocolate etc...

Don't worry even though you don't have a bamboo whipper.
Here is a clever idea for making Matcha Late without it.
If you have Matcha (green) tea powder, try Matcha Late with this way!

Thank you cava_cavien for allowing me to introduce your nice idea :-)

I don't know the correct rule of 茶道 but always keep 抹茶 powder in my freezer and enjoy it anytime I want it!
