Instant Mochi Recipe
Ingredients:
- 100g Mochi Foods™ Instant Mochi Mix
- 200ml Milk
- 20g Sugar
- 10g Butter
Instructions:
1. Mix Ingredients
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine Mochi Foods™ Instant Mochi Mix, milk, and sugar. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and lump-free.
2. Cook the Mochi
- Microwave Method: Microwave the bowl on high for 5 minutes.
- Steaming Method: Pour the mixture into a heatproof dish and steam for 15-20 minutes.
3. Add Butter and Knead
Once the mochi is cooked, let it cool slightly until it’s warm but not too hot to handle. Add butter to the mochi dough, and knead the butter into the dough thoroughly, repeating until it’s smooth and elastic.
4. Shape and Serve:
Once smooth, the mochi is ready to be shaped. You can cut it into pieces or form it into balls. Fill with Ice cream, cream, or your favorite fruit! Enjoy!
Yield:
This recipe yields 8-10 mochi balls.
Pro Tips:
-
Tip 1: Dust with Starch: After shaping the mochi, dust your hands and the mochi balls with cornstarch or potato starch to prevent sticking.
-
Tip 2: Flavor Add-Ons: Mix matcha powder, cocoa powder, or flavored syrups into the dough for a unique twist on classic mochi.
-
Tip 3: Filling Ideas: For an extra treat, fill the mochi balls with sweet fillings like red bean paste, chocolate, or fresh fruit before shaping.
-
Tip 4: Rest for Texture: Let the mochi rest for 5-10 minutes after mixing to help the dough develop a softer texture before shaping.
