Green tea ice cream
Although green tea ice cream is now found all over Japan and in Japanese restaurants abroad, it only really became popular in the 1990s. It’s simple to make at home.
Ingredients (5)
- 400ml full-cream milk
- 300ml pouring cream
- 6 egg yolks
- ½ cup caster sugar
- 20g green tea powder (matcha)
Don't forget you can add these ingredients to your Woolworths shopping list.

1.1 Combine the milk and cream in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat.

3.3 Transfer to a bowl and cool first to room temperature, then in the fridge for about an hour until chilled.
