HOMEMADE MOCHI
Mochi, in its many forms, is a New Year's tradition in Japan. It is made with sticky rice and can be either sweet or savory. The great thing about mochi is you can prepare some of it sweet, then present a savory version with the remaining mochi the next day or even later the same night.

Steps:
- For the mochi dough base: Wash the rice gently until the water runs clear, 5 to 8 times, then drain. Cook the rice with 2 1/2 cups water in a rice cooker according to the manufacturer directions for sushi/sweet rice, about 30 minutes.
- Place the cooked rice in a wooden or stone bowl. (I don't recommend stainless steel or plastic bowls, which will make the rice wet or too soft.) Smash the rice with a thick wooden stick or pestle. Use your hands to turn the rice and continue to pound with the stick until it is a smooth and sticky dough, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Portion out 20 to 24 mochi, about 2 tablespoons of dough per portion. Have a small bowl of water nearby to lightly wet hands if the dough is too sticky. Shape each portion into a round patty about 1 1/2 inches thick and dust each side of the mochi with mochiko or potato starch.
- For the mochi toppings: To make a sweet miso sauce, combine the miso, sugar and sake in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add your desired number of plain mochi and grill, brushing with soy sauce a couple of times on each side, until the mochi are caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Brush some of the remaining plain mochi (reserve some of them to serve with the sweet toppings) with about 1 tablespoon of the sweet miso sauce and top with a sprinkle of shichimi. To serve the savory mochi, wrap the soy-grilled and sweet miso-glazed mochi in nori and place on a plate or platter.
- For the sweet mochi toppings: Mix the kinako with the sugar in a small bowl. Dip to coat both sides of your desired number of mochi. Top each remaining plain mochi with adzuki paste, then sprinkle with the remaining kinako sugar, if desired. Serve on a plate or platter.

Steps:
- Wrap red bean paste in aluminum foil and place in the freezer for at least 3 hours. Mix sweet rice flour and green tea powder thoroughly in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl. Stir in water, then sugar. Mix until smooth. Cover bowl with plastic wrap.
- Cook the rice flour mixture in the microwave for 3 minutes and 30 seconds. Meanwhile, remove red bean paste from the freezer and divide paste into 8 equal balls. Set aside. Stir rice flour mixture and heat for another 15 to 30 seconds.
- Dust work surface with cornstarch. While the mochi is still hot from the microwave, begin rolling balls the size of about 2 tablespoons. Flatten the mochi ball and place 1 frozen red bean paste ball in the center. Pinch the mochi over the red bean paste until the paste is completely covered. Sprinkle with additional cornstarch and place mochi seam side down in a paper muffin liner to prevent sticking. Repeat until all the mochi and red bean paste is used.

- Gather Your Ingrediants and Materials. For this, you will be needing... -1 box of Mochiko flour (you can find this at your local Asian super market or international store)
- Combine Flour, Sugar and Water. -Combine your flour, sugar and water into your microwaveable bowl. (Make sure to mix well)
- Microwave for 10 Minutes. Microwave for 10 minutes on high power. (Stir the mochi between every 2 minute mark. It may take longer depending on your microwave)
- Start Shaping Your Mochi. Before you do any of this, let the mochi cool down for 5 minutes. Sprinkle some corn starch or flour (not too much and not too little) on your parchment paper that way the mochi won’t be too sticky when you’re trying to shape it.
- Add Your Fillings. If you’re not too familiar with red bean paste, Nutella would be a great option (although it may be too sweet for some). Once your mochi is cut into small circles (or as big as you want them) add your paste on top of the cut out mochi (estimate how much you want).
- Enjoy! I hope you enjoyed, or at least enjoyed learning how to make this sweet treat. Be the First to Share. Did you make this project? Share it with us!
