i was trying to find words to express my admiration for your elegant and beautiful way of presenting all the recipes, but i dont think so you deserve all the respect
I can't wait to try this, I want to eat it right now. Matcha makes everything special. The two of you are best when together but I really want to compliment Satoshi on this video. You're doing such a great job! I'd prefer this than other cooking channels on TV. Very informative and totally not boring.
I absolutely love that Satoshi is doing a video all by himself. Thank you Satoshi-san for this lovely video. I recently bought some green tea powder and im excited to have a recipe to use it in. 😀❤
Satoshi, you are fantastic! Just a note for Canadians: Our all purpose flour has a protein content that's closer to bread flour in the U.S. and in Japan, so if you're going to make Castella cake, try AP flour first, as our bread flour might make it too tough. :)
I made this mistake and now have essentially matcha bread... Not what I was hoping for for my wife's birthday cake :'(. Would be good to get this added as a note on the ingredients list 🇨🇦🍞❌
Satoshi, that was a great video! The instructions about the two layers of parchment, and crushing the first layer, were so good, along with instructions on how to reduce bubbles. The matcha castella looks so delicious! It also looks so pretty on that plate. Wonderful work, Satoshi! Thanks for the great video, and I hope both of you are doing well. Hugs!
Haha Satoshi you looked a bit guilty when you said castella was your first meal of the day. No worries! You're not the only one who has eaten cake/sweets in the morning ;D
How can you even wait till next morning to eat that? I will finish the whole cake in a second!!!!Thanks for the recipe, you make it so much easier for us to bake this complicated cake! ありがとう!
Thank you, Satoshi for sharing your Matcha Castella recipe! I will follow your video instructions to bake one as I love all sweet stuff with matcha in them. Hello Shinichi, good to see you towards the end! ❤ you both!
I tried it and it turned out beautifully. Really quick and easy to make since the video was explained so well. I couldn't find bread flour so I used cake flour instead. Mine is wrapped up and in the fridge. Can't wait to taste it tomorrow.😋
@@3pumpkins170 It was really good. My family loved it. You can taste the matcha and honey. And the rock sugar at the bottom gave it a slight crunch. I am definitely making it again to impress my boyfriend's family.😂
You guys are adorable, Thank you very much for the receipt. I will try to make it, i sent already the link of your video to my daughter also, i discovered matcha few weeks ago and i am in love with it, I want make everything with matcha, Big hugs with love. (I also subscribed to your channel)
I used several matcha to make cakes but Heapwell Ceremonial Matcha gave me the best colour and flavour. Never use any cheap and substandard culinary matcha to make cake.
Try all-purpose flour (protein 11%) or even cake flour (protein 8%) they are using bread flour which has 13% protein which is why the cake comes out tough
Hi there! I'm thinking of trying the recipe out this week--it looks so delicious! Do you turn off the oven when leaving the cake in there for five extra minutes?
been watching ur video and finally my 1st comment, LOL: excellent job, very simple procedure and its just i dont hv macha ingredients in the US, sry...also i've learned something NEW today bec i've never tried putting parchment paper in the pan when baking bec i always think it may burn but it didn't, its a good idea and the whole cake came out perfect! tysm #satoshi. and he came back perfect timing for the good taste of home baked green tea sponge cake, #shinichi--u guys rock!
Satoshi, you do not need to worry a bit about flying solo for the weekend stream. You're going to be great, if this video is any indication! I love the little trick with crushing the outer layer of parchment paper to create insulating air pockets! This looks so, SO good!
I made it two times. First with Canadian bread flour - which came out extremely dense, then with normal flour - much better but still dense. Feels like the type of flour is really important
@@tomshardlow So I just used cake flour last night. It is better....but the baking time might need more than 40mins. Maybe because my oven is bigger than what Satoshi used, so the cake is slightly undercook. But it still doesn't look as fluffy as this guy did. I would try another matcha castella cake recipe and hopefully it would be better resulted. Anyway, the cake flour is definitely a better option.
Hi Satoshi, you video was very easy to follow and after we baked it the flavour was great, thanks so much for this recipe! I do have some questions tho. The castella didn't rise as well as your one in the video so it was a bit flat. Also, is the texture supposed to be springy soft or springy hard?(the crust was a bit hard), because the recipe called for bread flour, so the texture is not the soft kind. If you could answer that would be great thank you!
Castella is definitely drier than a sponge cake. However it should be hard. Perhaps use a blend of cake flour and breaks flour next time and see how it goes. Good luck!
made this, came out looking gorgeous but extremely dry. Then, I read on other websites where they asked to wrap the saran on while cake is still hot. Thoughts?
STUFR Short Travel Unique Food Reviews I know this is not really close but go to the nearest Starbucks and get yourself a Matcha Green tea Frappuchino, try it in Frappe version first to see if you like it then switch to Latte version next for more concentrate taste. :)

That castella is absolutely gorgeous! I really need to make this - even though I'm not much of a baker. Thanks so much!

You're doing such a great job! I'd prefer this than other cooking channels on TV. Very informative and totally not boring.
Great suggestion on crinkling up parchment! I always have a problem having it stay in the pan.Thank you!
I watched this video SO MANY times but have yet to pick up the courage to bake it (and to convert the CUP into grams). I enjoy watching it.
I absolutely love that Satoshi is doing a video all by himself. Thank you Satoshi-san for this lovely video. I recently bought some green tea powder and im excited to have a recipe to use it in. 😀❤
Wow this is easy to make, thanks for showing us, I am addicted to matcha!
Hi, I've just found this recipe, I am going to make it right now. It looks delicious. Thanks for posting it
So delicious, the taste of honey really complements the green tea. Just amazing. Thanks again

No wonder (Canadian here)! I used bread flour for this recipe, and it turned out so dense! Thanks for the tip, I'll try again with AP flour next time.
thank you in advance!! Sincerely, A Canadian
Omg me too i tried other youtuber's castella with canadian bread flour and it didnt seem moist. Thank you
Good tip. Thank you :)
EXCELLENT JOB Satoshi! I think this is the first "solo" video I saw with you. You did Great!
Satoshi, that was a great video! The instructions about the two layers of parchment, and crushing the first layer, were so good, along with instructions on how to reduce bubbles.

Looks delicious. I'm definitely gonna try this. Keep up the good work, guys.
Yes Satoshi, you did do it pretty well! Actually you did it VERY well. Lovely video. Thank you!
Just made this! It's delicious!! I had to put a LOT more matcha in, but I think that's due to the difference in quality of matcha
Thank you Satoshi for the recipe! Can't wait to try it!
Definitely going to try this recipe out. Looks yummy 😋 Thanks Satoshi, your awesome.
That cake so delicious ! I will try and make it this week. Thanks Satoshi !

How was the cake? I want to make sure it's a good recipe before I make it because matcha powder is expensive! :)

Something about Satoshi always makes me so happy he just seems like a bright and bubbly man :3
This man speaks English with Japanese and French accent. I don't know HOW, but i hear it.

Looks wonderful, well done Satoshi!
Satoshi needs his own cooking channel!
Kephissos He has his own channel actually:
Kantanfoods by Satoshi
i want this already!!!
You did fantastic!
Amazing! So there's no yeast in this recipe?
I used several matcha to make cakes but Heapwell Ceremonial Matcha gave me the best colour and flavour. Never use any cheap and substandard culinary matcha to make cake.
Could we make regular castella following the exact same recipe but just omitting the matcha powder?
You sure can
Its really nice!!! Thanks a lot ♥️♥️♥️ just one question why mine Up is kind of steacky?
Try all-purpose flour (protein 11%) or even cake flour (protein 8%) they are using bread flour which has 13% protein which is why the cake comes out tough
Love everything that includes matcha! Can’t wait to make this cake with your instructions! Thank you!
New subscriber from the Netherlands! Nice and clear vlog, thanks a lot ;)

OMG, I LOOOOVE Castella cake. Quolofune in Jiyugaoka has THE BEST one!
Looks delicious I will try. Did you know you can buy waxed paper loaf pans. I use them at times for gift giving . Just an idea.
Great job, Satoshi! I want to try this cake. I have all purpose flour. Will that work?
Yes it will definitely work. Have fun!
That looks scrumptious 😋😋😋😋
It looks so yummi😍😍
This video is so dang cute!!! I can't wait to try this
Can you also eat the cake straight away or do you have to refridgerate it?
Looks great! Any chance you have the dry ingredient measurements in grams (for scale)?
Thanks for the video satoshi! Looks delicious:)
Wow that's yummy my favorite.
🍵trying it this weekend!🤗
Yummy thank you so much
Definitely gonna try this 😍
Awesome video as always 😊👍
great job satoshi!
My favorite

Well done for doing a video by yourself, Satoshi! I thought it was really nice :D
You are so sweet and your voice Is very calming , a real great solo video!
It looks delicious 👍💖
Thanks for sharing. May I use cake flour to replace the bread flour? There is no oil or fat in the cake? Thanks
Such a good job, Satoshi!
Great video. Definitely going to try this, but would love to see you make a newspaper pan to bake in. :)
So I just made my first try, followed your instructions, but the cake turns out....denser than I anticipated. Did I do something wrong?
I made it two times. First with Canadian bread flour - which came out extremely dense, then with normal flour - much better but still dense. Feels like the type of flour is really important
@@tomshardlow Yea, I just discovered the flour too. So you used all purpose flour in 2nd time? Should I try cake flour as well?
@@LiyuConberma yes. Maybe cake flour is the answer! Please let me know if it works :)
@@tomshardlow So I just used cake flour last night. It is better....but the baking time might need more than 40mins. Maybe because my oven is bigger than what Satoshi used, so the cake is slightly undercook.
But it still doesn't look as fluffy as this guy did. I would try another matcha castella cake recipe and hopefully it would be better resulted.
Anyway, the cake flour is definitely a better option.
LiyuConberma Did you remember to use sugar?
You guys are adorable 🥰

@@TabiEats ok I will try again with your advice, thank you!:D
I don’t have rock sugar on hand is there anything else I can use or can I leave it out without ruining the recipe?
I wanna go make this right now~ 美味しそう～
Btw the recipe in the description is missing sugar ^^ might not taste as good without it
Wow ! Yummy
Any recommended brands for authentic Japanese Matcha powder?
made this, came out looking gorgeous but extremely dry. Then, I read on other websites where they asked to wrap the saran on while cake is still hot. Thoughts?
カステラ一番、電話は二番、三時のおやつは文明堂！😂
Satoshi is an excellent Baker.
This cake looks amazing! I haven't tasted Matcha befor. So very curious to try this. What flavour would say is matcha? Is it like Pandan?
It’s more subtle than pandan I think and has a more earthy flavor.
STUFR Short Travel Unique Food Reviews I know this is not really close but go to the nearest Starbucks and get yourself a Matcha Green tea Frappuchino, try it in Frappe version first to see if you like it then switch to Latte version next for more concentrate taste. :)
hmmm sounds good! I will be trying it 100%
It's ground green tea.
matcha is basically powdered green tea, it has a strong earthy flavour
Can you substitute the rock sugar for anything else?
Woah, that cake looks delicious 😳 I wonder if it would be good with banana or honey-flavored cream~ or maybe strawberry? Yum 😋
Use bread flour (high protein)?
Or cake flour (low protein)?
To replace rock sugar, can I use regular cane sugar?
HELLO SATOSHI! 👐
Is it okay to use regular sugar if you cannot find rock sugar on hand?
Yea you can.
