A discussion of recent search trends
Search trends for April 10, 2026, are a mix of interest in the matchup cards typical of the opening season of professional baseball and a serious perspective on new life and social conditions. In particular, heavy words such as “ruins” and “dangerous driving manslaughter” are at the top of the list, while there are also persistent calls for everyday healing and familiar entertainment, such as “Sushiro,” “Starbucks,” and “Daiso Chiikawa. It seems that because we are in a period of unsettling news, the sense of accomplishment gained through “homemade” during time spent at home, and polite tea time with a sense of the season are sought after as a safety net for the soul.

Peaceful Matcha and Dainagon Pound Cake
In the midst of your hectic daily life, you suddenly see bright green like fresh greenery through the window. Here is a heart-warming pound cake that blends the deep aroma of matcha green tea and the gentle sweetness of dainagon kanokotsu.

way of making
[Chapter 1: Building the Base] Place the softened unsalted butter in a bowl and knead thoroughly with a whisk until it turns white. Now add the granulated sugar in three parts and mix for about 3 minutes, until the mixture is creamy with plenty of air.
Chapter 2: Fusion with Eggs: Add the beaten egg in 5 portions, allowing it to come to room temperature. The “first step” to avoid failure is to mix vigorously with a whisk and emulsify the mixture thoroughly after each addition, since adding the eggs all at once will cause separation.
Chapter 3: Green Breath: Sift the flour, matcha powder, and baking powder together twice and put them into the bowl at once. From here, switch to a rubber spatula and mix “as if cutting” as you scoop up from the bottom.
Chapter 4: Blessing of Dainagon] Dainagon kanoko is added when the dough is still powdery, and it is blended throughout the dough. The way the jewel-like azuki beans are mixed into the glossy matcha-colored dough is truly the handiwork of a craftsman.
[Chapter 5: The Magic of Baking] Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C for 40 minutes. The trick is to cover the surface with aluminum foil during the baking process to prevent the surface from drying out and to lock in the beautiful green color. When you stick a bamboo skewer into the dough and the dough does not stick to it, it is a sign that the dough is done.
This is the secret to the delicious taste! Key Points
The most important feature is emulsification. The butter and eggs mix well together, which makes the baked product much more moist. Also, be sure to sift the matcha powder to prevent lumps from forming in the dough and to spread the deep green color and aroma evenly throughout the dough. Dust the dainagon kanoko with a little flour before mixing it into the dough to prevent it from sinking during baking.

While the aroma of freshly baked cake is exceptional, if you wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest overnight, the moistness and matcha flavor will settle down and it will be even more delicious. We hope you will make them your springtime tea time companion.
