Some Tips

Mochis are a traditional Japanese dessert that are made and eaten during a ceremony called mochitsuki.

After you have placed it, you just need to close the dough by joining the corners/extremes.

If there’s an excess of dough at the end, you can cut it and use it to create another mochi.

  • Be sure to use glutinous rice flour
  • If you don’t have a microwave at home, you can prepared the dough in bain-marie,
  • Mochiko’s flour is special for making mochis

Once cooled, cut portions depending on the size you want for your mochis.

Now it’s time to take out your ice cream balls and place one of them in the middle of the cutted dough.

Lets start!

  • First step: scoop the ice cream into small sized balls and put them into a tray.
  • Then take your ice cream balls to the freezer for 1 hour
  • Now it’s time to make dough for the Mochis, mix the glutinous rice flour, sugar and water.
  • Take your bowl to the microwave for two minutes, when it's finished, stir the dough a bit and take it back for another 2 minutes, then stir it again.

  • The final dough should look a bit shiny, elastic and sticky, it is important to achieve this consistency.
  • The cooking time may depend on the microwave power, but it is recommended to not exceed 5 minutes.
  • You can add food coloring to make your mochi's
  • Then, cover the bowl with plastic wrap around and make a few holes with a fork.
  • To avoid the dough getting pasted into the work table, we can use cornstarch at the surface and over the dough.

  • Let the dough cool before anything.
