🌱 Matcha Colors: Kabocha squash, our golden ingredient in the Yellow Blend
At Matcha Colors, we believe in the power of natural ingredients: those that provide color, flavor, and real benefits . One of these is Kabocha squash , an ancient ingredient that has become a key component of our Yellow Blend .
🌱 An ingredient with history and tradition
Kabocha , also known as Japanese pumpkin, has been a part of Japanese cuisine for centuries. Its natural sweetness, creamy texture, and versatility have made it an essential ingredient, and its cultivation has now spread to the USA, Australia, and Europe .
🌿 Cultivation and curing: the secret of its sweetness
The Kabocha is a hardy plant ideal for temperate climates. After harvesting, it undergoes a curing process, being left to rest for days or weeks. This resting period allows its natural sugars to concentrate , intensifying the sweetness and softening the pulp.
