| Matcha Karin Production Process |
| |
| Matcha Karin is produced using a wheat dough and deep fried using 100% "Uruchi Mai" rice oil. |
|
Using a special machine, the dough, made primarily of wheat flour, is thinned and flattened.> |
|
| |
|
 |
Once flattened, the dough is shreaded into long, rectangular shapes.< |
| |
|
The pieces are then deep fried in rice oil at a temperature of about 365°F. A Second- ary frying is necessary to achieve the right amount of crispiness.>
|
 |
| |
|
 |
The Karin pieces are then seasoned by hand using a syrup made from ITO EN matcha powder.< |
| |
|
The Karin are hand-packed into individual bags.> |
