BAMBOO WHISK CHASEN

Traditional bamboo whisk or “chasen” is an indispensable tool of the Japanese matcha tea ceremony. The fine, handmade prongs are carved out in a single piece of bamboo. When using a chasen to whisk matcha it is best to keep a loose and relaxed wrist and make rapid zigzag motions in the shape of letter “W” or “M” – this helps to give matcha the ideal frothy texture.
The traditional way to prepare matcha comes from the Japanese Tea Ceremony. It involves using a matcha bowl, a bamboo whisk- chasen and a bamboo spoon- chashaku. Place 2 chashaku spoons of matcha (1,5g) in a matcha bowl and pour 100ml of hot water (80 °C). Chasen in hand, vigorously whisk your matcha from the wrist in m-shaped, not circular, motion. In about 20 seconds your bowl should be filled with a perfect jade-green foam. You can add more water now if you like your matcha to be less strong.

THE ESSENTIAL TOOL FOR MATCHA PREPARATION

The traditional bamboo whisk, or “chasen,” is an indispensable tool in the art of preparing matcha tea. This tool is a cornerstone of the Japanese tea ceremony, crafted with precision and care. Each chasen is carved by hand from a single piece of bamboo, resulting in its fine, delicate prongs designed to create the ideal frothy texture that makes matcha so unique.

HOW TO USE YOUR BAMBOO WHISK

When whisking matcha, it is essential to maintain a loose and relaxed wrist to ensure optimal results. Use rapid zigzag motions in the shape of the letter “W” or “M” rather than circular motions. This method ensures the matcha is properly aerated, creating a smooth and creamy jade-green foam on the surface.

THE TRADITIONAL MATCHA PREPARATION METHOD

To prepare matcha in the traditional Japanese style:

Gather Your Tools:
- A matcha bowl
- A bamboo whisk (chasen)
- A bamboo spoon (chashaku)
Measure and Mix:
- Add 2 chashaku spoons (approximately 1.5g) of matcha powder into the matcha bowl.
- Pour 100ml of hot water (80°C) over the matcha.
Whisk to Perfection:
- Hold your chasen and whisk vigorously using a zigzag “M”-shaped motion from the wrist.
- After about 20 seconds, your matcha should develop a creamy foam with a rich jade-green color.
Adjust to Taste:
- If you prefer a lighter flavor, add more hot water and whisk again gently.

CARING FOR YOUR CHASEN

To maintain your chasen’s quality and longevity:

Always dry it on a dedicated chasen holder to retain its shape.
Avoid placing a wet chasen in a closed container to prevent mold or damage.

Prepare your matcha with precision and care using this traditional bamboo whisk, ensuring every cup delivers the authentic taste and texture of Japanese tea culture.
