Matcha glutinous rice balls, also known as matcha tangyuan, are a delightful and vibrant dessert commonly enjoyed in Japanese cuisine. These sticky rice balls are made by mixing glutinous rice flour with water to form a dough, which is then flavored with matcha powder. The dough is rolled into small balls and cooked in boiling water until they become soft and chewy. The cooked rice balls are then served in a sweet soup made from matcha powder, sugar, and water. The combination of the earthy matcha flavor with the soft and chewy rice balls creates a unique and refreshing dessert.
