Green Tea Swiss Roll Recipes

MATCHA GREEN TEA SWISS ROLL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Start with the filling. Pour the milk into a small saucepan, and sprinkle over the cornstarch, whisk until combined.
• Next, add the honey and sugar stirring continuously over a low heat. When the milk mixture almost starts to boil it will thicken and get a bit lumpy, don't panic! Just keep stirring until it smooths out. Continue to stir the now thick milk mixture over the heat for an additional 1-2 minutes, to cook out the cornstarch flavor.
• Take off the heat and pour into a bowl or shallow dish. Cover the mixture with cling wrap, pushing it all the way to the top of the custard to prevent a film from forming and chill this in the refrigerator until cold.
• Next, make the cake by combining the sugar, honey, matcha powder, and eggs in a large bowl. Mix until it almost triples in size, is lighter in color, and becomes thick and fluffy. This will take about 7-10 minutes. If you dribble some of the batter on itself it should hold a "ribbon" shape for 4-5 seconds.
• Once the batter has reached the correct consistency sift over the cake flour, and gently fold the flour in until all combined.
• Heat your oven to 350˚F (175˚C) and butter your baking sheet. Place a piece of parchment paper (a few inches larger than your baking sheet) onto your baking sheet. Using a rubber scraper (or your hand) push out any bubbles.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
• NOTE: You'll know it's done when the cake is slightly risen, turning just a bit golden, and you can smell it. Also, if you gently press your fingertips on the surface of the cake, and no indentations are left, it's done.
• In a clean bowl, whip the heavy cream with electric beaters until it is thick and pretty stiff, little peaks should form when you lift the beaters.
• Grab your chilled custard from the fridge. Add one tsp of vanilla extract. Take the same beaters and whisk your custard, it will look funny at first, but after a few moments it will become nice and smooth.
• Fold the whipped cream into the custard until they are combined.
• Cool your cake for 2-3 minutes on the baking sheet. Lay a fresh sheet of parchment beside your cake and sprinkle it with powdered sugar.
• Lift the cake with the sides of the parchment onto your table. Flip the cake onto the sugared parchment paper.
• Remove parchment paper from the flipped cake.
• Slather the filling onto your cake.
• Roll it up, using the parchment to help.
• Wrap the whole thing in cling wrap and chill for two hours before slicing.
• Slice into pieces of your desired thickness and serve.
• Enjoy!

GREEN TEA SWISS ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan; line with parchment paper.
• Stir 1 tablespoon water and 1 tablespoon matcha together in a small bowl to form a paste the consistency of mustard.
• Beat egg yolks and 2 tablespoons white sugar together in a bowl until light and creamy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add flour; beat until smooth and fluffy, about 1 minute. Stir in green tea paste.
• Beat egg whites in a separate bowl with electric mixer at high speed until soft peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; beat until mixture is stiffened and smooth, about 1 minute more.
• Spoon 1/3 egg white mixture onto green tea mixture using a rubber spatula. Gently run spatula around the edges of the green tea mixture lifting the bottom up and over the center, repeating just until incorporated. Add remaining egg white mixture gradually, folding just until batter is combined. Spread batter into prepared baking pan, smoothing it out to remove air bubbles.
• Bake in preheated oven until cake is golden brown on top, about 10 minutes.
• Place a large sheet of waxed paper on a work surface. Turn cake out onto waxed paper; remove baking pan lining. Cool to room temperature, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Whisk cream, superfine sugar, and 1 teaspoon matcha together in a bowl until smooth and spreadable.
• Select best side of cake; place that side down on the waxed paper. Spread cream mixture evenly across cake. Lift waxed paper to gently roll cake. Refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours. Cut off the ends as needed to make even.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 15x10x1-inch jelly roll pan with waxed paper.
• Combine flour and baking powder in a small bowl.
• Beat egg yolks in a bowl using an electric mixer until light in color. Add 1/2 cup white sugar, water, green tea powder, and vanilla extract. Beat on low speed until well combined.
• Beat egg whites in a small bowl using clean beaters until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites into the egg yolk mixture.
• Sprinkle flour mixture over the egg mixture; fold until just combined. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden and cake springs back when lightly touched, about 12 minutes.
• Mix cream cheese and coffee together in a separate bowl to make the filling. Sprinkle a piece of aluminum foil the size of the cake with confectioners' sugar.
• Immediately loosen edges of cake from the jelly roll pan and turn cake out onto the sugared aluminum foil. Roll up foil and cake, starting from the cake's short end. Let cool to room temperature, at least 20 minutes.
• Unroll cake and spread filling over the inside, within 1/2 inch of the edges. Roll up cake. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, about 30 minutes.
