Green tea anmitsu sweet. Great recipe for Green tea anmitsu sweet. It tastes good! ๐ While the classic anmitsu dessert includes the kanten, syrup, and fruit, other treats may be incorporated into the recipe, such as ice cream (green tea is commonly used), red endomame peas, small sweet rice cakes, mochi such as shiratama dango or chi chi dango mochi, and, in place of the white sugar syrup, kuromitsu, which is a brown sugar syrup. Made by combining matcha green tea powder with sugar and agar, the sweet, leafy flavour of this gelatinous dessert goes fantastically well with chunky sweet red bean paste.
They're usually not overly sweet and have a delicate balance of flavors that makes them unique.
This one's made with Japanese tea blocks (kanten) which have a firm bite with plenty of tea flavor.
Green tea ice cream: You can use vanilla ice cream instead, but I wouldn't recommend other flavors of ice cream to avoid conflict in flavors.
