Chocolate Matcha Swirl, #BundtaMonth
Matcha is the elite member of the green tea family. Shizuoka, southwest of Tokyo (an hour away by train) and Uji on the southern island of Kyushu are two areas famous for choice green tea leaves.
For this month’s swirl-in-a-Bundt theme, I twirled chocolate matcha into a bona fide Southern belle of a pound cake. The recipe is from Kim Nelson of South Carolina's famed Daisy Cakes shop.
