About

Matcha works just as fine in savory food. One such example is the Matcha Salmon Poke Bowl. This simple dish is made from a few main ingredients like rice, salmon and vegetables. But the sweetness of salmon, earthiness of matcha and the freshness of vegetables gives it a finger-licking taste.
