Making tapioca in vegetable broth: bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in 1/4 cu of tapioca pearls and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tapioca has turned mostly translucent with just a small dot of white in the center, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain and mix in with 1/8 cup of vegetable broth. The tapioca will continue to turn translucent. Mix with the matcha green tea powder and butter. Stir to blend well.
