Instructions
Matcha Green Tea Mayonnaise
Place the egg yolk, mustard, vinegar, matcha, salt and pepper in the bowl of a blender and whizz together for 1 minute. Slowly add the oil in a steady stream until the mayonnaise has emulsified.
Green Tea Salt
Mix the salt and matcha together in a bowl to coat the salt and then sift in a fine sieve to remove any excess matcha powder.

Boil the eggs for 6 minutes in a saucepan of boiling water. Remove from the boiling water and place into a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled peel, slice and set aside.
