    Japanese dessert is always beautiful, as is all of their dishes.  Presentation is always key.  Matcha or powdered green tea is a staple ingredient in Japanese cuisine and makes a wonderful Ice cream.  I used store bought green tea Ice cream and paired it with kiwi and oranges for a light, sweet and perfect ending to our Japanese feast.  I truly love fresh fruit at the end of any meal.  Often times Japanese serve the fruit with a sweet sauce made from black sugar.  I don't find the added sweetness necessary if you are using nice ripe seasonal fruit.

    Enjoy

    Ingredients

    • 4 oranges
    • 4 kiwi
    • 4 scoops Green Tea Ice Cream

    Instructions

    • Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each orange so it will stand up. (Reserve to plate the scoop of Green Tea Ice Cream.
    • Cut a bigger slice off the top to access the fruit. Using a sharp knife cut around the pith (the white area) and remove the orange wedges. A spoon is helpful to scoop it out at the bottom. Cut the fruit into bite size pieces and set aside. Repeat until the fruit is removed from all four oranges.
    • peel and dice the kiwi into bite size pieces. Put the orange and kiwi pieces into the orange.
    • Place two oranges and two scoops of Green tea on Ice Cream on each tray. This is shared between two people. Enjoy!
