Hello!
This is the first dessert recipe of VegaNice Japan and of course, we would like to use our local ingredients in making vegan desserts✨
All of you knows that Japan is extremely famous for matcha/ green tea. That’s why I want to share with you guys some healthy vegan snack made from matcha with a bit of kick flavor from Japanese mustard spinach. 🌱
Japanese mustard spinach has some peppery taste, quite similar to Chinese white cabbage. If its not available in your country or area, you still use any available spinach.
