Instructions
- 1

First make the matcha custard filling: 1 egg, 30g of milk, 40g of cream, and 25g of white sugar, put them together and mix evenly.
- 2

Sift in 10 grams of all-purpose flour, 15 grams of cornstarch, and 5 grams of matcha powder.
- 3

Continue stirring until smooth.
- 4

Turn on low heat and stir slowly until it becomes thick.
- 5

Add 15 grams of unsalted butter, and continue folding with a spatula.
- 6

Stir-fry until all the butter is melted in.
- 7

Then continue stir-frying for about 5-8 minutes, until the dough does not stick to the pan and the dough is smooth.
- 8

Take out the dough, wrap it with plastic wrap, and set it aside to cool.
- 9

Next, make the ice crystal dough: 100 grams of tapioca starch and 100 grams of cold water. At first, there will be a bit of resistance when stirring, but continue stirring slowly until it is completely dissolved.
- 10

200 grams of boiling water and 40 grams of white sugar, boiled until fully boiling. At this time, stir the cassava starch solution again to prevent sedimentation.
- 11

First, pour in 1/3 of the boiling water, stirring as you add it, to raise the overall temperature a little.
- 12

Then pour all the remaining boiling water in at once. This time, do not stir and let it sit for about 1 minute. Note: This step is quite important. Do not stir and let the batter gelatinize by itself.
- 13

After letting it sit for 1 minute, you will see that the surface of the batter will have slightly gelatinized.
- 14

Stir again until smooth and silky.
- 15

Pour the batter into a bowl with a relatively wide bottom, cover it with plastic wrap, and poke a few holes for ventilation.
- 16

Steam over high heat for about 25-30 minutes.
- 17

Steam until completely transparent, with no white liquid. Let the ice crystal skin liquid cool slightly before handling.
- 18

Divide the matcha custard filling into appropriately sized portions and roll them into balls for later use.
- 19

Take an appropriate amount of ice crystal skin and gently spread it out.
- 20

Wrap in an appropriate amount of matcha custard filling.
