Make the jasmine cream by heating light cream to a slight boil, then adding jasmine tea. Let it sit for five minutes, cool over ice water, and chill overnight.

Prepare the matcha cake roll by freezing the egg whites for ten minutes.

Mix warm corn oil and matcha powder evenly, then mix in warm milk. Once emulsified, add cake flour and mix well, followed by egg yolks until it reaches a ribbon-like consistency.

Remove egg whites and whip with sugar to soft peaks. Fold into the egg yolk mixture, pour into the baking pan, and bake.

Let the cake cool after baking.

Take out chilled jasmine cream, remove the tea bag, add 60g of whipping cream and sugar, then whip.

Spread the whipped cream evenly on the cake and roll it up. Chill for two hours.

Dust the chilled cake roll with matcha powder before serving.
