Instructions
Matcha Green Tea Cookie
- In a bowl, add rice flour, powdered sugar, salt, Matcha powder, honey and water. Mix well with a spatula until evenly coated.
- Once lumps start to form in the dough, gather dough with your hand and form into a ball.
- Cover with plastic wrap and set aside until ready to use in the Dasik mold.
Make Omija Tea
- If making Omija cookies, soak 1 Tbs of dried Omija berries in 2 Tbs of hot water. Let it soak for several hours or overnight in the fridge until color of liquid becomes deep red.
Omija Tea Cookie
- In a bowl, add rice flour, powdered sugar, honey and Omija tea. Mix well with a spatula.
- Once the omija tea dough start to clump together, gather it with your hand and form into a ball.
- Cover with plastic wrap and set aside until ready to use in the Dasik mold.
How to use PieCrust Cutters to make Dasik
- If you don't have a Dasik mold, you can easily use PieCrust Cutters. Lightly coat your work surface with sesame oil then either roll out the dough or just flatten with your fingers. Make it quite thick so it doesn't break. Then press the cutter into the rolled out dough and cut shapes out.
Make Dasik cookies with Dasik mold
- Raise Dasik mold frame and fill the mold with green tea or omija dough. Press down evenly and fill the mold completely. When filled, press the mold frame down to expose the dasik cookies. Gently pick up each cookie from the mold. See my video for details.
Notes
- How to make roasted rice flour - cook rice in your rice cooker on the dry side (use just enough water to cover rice when cooking, much less than usual). Then dry your cooked rice and then roast it in your frying pan until lightly yellow. Finally, grind your roasted rice to make the flour.
- Use Misugaru or roasted soybean flour (you can buy this from the store) instead if you don't want to go to the trouble of making your own roasted rice flour.
- Adjust water or liquid amount. Add more or less depending on how dry your flour is and how dry or humid your climate is.
- In my recipes, I’ve mostly used white rice flour as the base but you can also use roasted soybean flour, roasted mung bean flour, roasted corn starch and even roasted regular flour.
- Use light colored honey so you don’t muddy up the colors.
- These cookies dry up pretty quickly so store them in airtight containers in the fridge. Should be good for few days.
- Substitute Hibiscus tea for Omija (Five Flavor Berry) tea if you cannot find it. Hibiscus tea has similar flavor and color.
- These tea cookies dry up easily because there’s no oil. You can always add a bit of water or tea to add moisture back in. Coat the cookies with sesame oil to prevent drying up too quickly.
