Do the matcha ingredients lose their effectiveness due to the heat?

Some of the heat-sensitive substances such as L-theanine are broken down, but the flavor and antioxidants are retained - and the curry still benefits from color and depth.

Lime matcha curry

Q: How does matcha taste in a curry?

Our HEALTHBAR Matcha gives the sauce a subtle depth - slightly earthy, pleasantly tart and wonderfully harmonious with lime and coconut.

Q: Can I use tempeh or meat substitutes instead of tofu?

Absolutely. Tempeh, Seitan or vegan 'chicken chunks' work very well as a source of protein.

Does matcha lose its properties when baked?

Matcha can easily be used in baking and cooking. The heat can change individual natural components as well as color and aroma.

However, its characteristic taste remains and is ideal for cakes, cookies, pancakes or other sweet recipes.

High-quality ceremonial matcha is often used for classic matcha drinks, while culinary matcha or stronger matcha varieties are particularly suitable for baking.
