Tips:
1. If you don't have fermented butter, you can use ordinary unsalted butter instead. If salted butter is used, the salt in the recipe can be omitted;
2. The butter does not need to be fluffy and feathery, as long as the paste is fine and smooth and the color is whitish. If the biscuits are over-sent, they will have more cracks during the baking process. In addition, it is best to use powdered sugar;
3. Dry powder can be added separately or mixed together, as long as it can be mixed well. It is best to use the cutting and mixing method, so as to prevent the flour from becoming gluten and affecting the taste;
4. The biscuit batter of this biscuit is relatively wet and sticky, so it is more convenient to put it in the refrigerator and then reshape it. In addition, the biscuits must be frozen hard before cutting;
5. The baking time should be adjusted according to the actual situation, the edge can be colored and the fire can be turned off. The residual temperature of the biscuits will continue to make the biscuits fully mature. If you wait until the middle is also colored, it will be over-baked;
6. The better the quality of matcha powder, the better the color and flavor of the biscuits. So it is recommended to use better matcha powder.
