I thought today is National Matcha Day, and I realized that’s for the US only. Anyways, I made a quick and simple matcha dessert, Matcha Soy Milk Pudding for today. Every day is a matcha day, especially for all the matcha lovers out there. This recipe uses 5 simple ingredients and only takes you 10 minutes. You can make them the night before and enjoy them as an afternoon tea treat the next day.
You can be creative with the toppings, or enjoy the Matcha Soy Pudding on its own. I added azuki (red bean) paste and Japanese dango as toppings. You can buy premade azuki paste in any local supermarket. You can check out my 2-ingredient dango recipe here.
