Product Details

What is mochi?
The hearty flavour and unique, chewy texture of mochi has made it a natural favourite in Japan. Mitoku Brown Rice Mochi is prepared in the traditional way: steamed whole grain glutinous rice (sweet brown rice) is pounded to a sticky dough, then formed into blocks and dried. When cooked, these "cakes" soften and puff up, becoming delectably moist and chewy. Mochi original can be served with either sweet or savoury dips and sauces.

Serving Suggestion

Serve with your favourite dips, spreads, sauces or toppings. Wrap in toasted nori with a tamari-ginger dip or dip in warm rice malt for a sweet snack.

Cooking Instructions

Bake or pan fry the Mochi cakes in oil until cakes soften and puff up.

Ingredients

Wholegrain sweet brown rice.

Other Information

Mochi rice cakes are basically glutinous rice cooked and pounded into a paste. it is then moulded into shape, usually a rectangle, cube or sphere. Mochi are eaten all year round and as a snack, starter or dessert, but are traditionally eaten during the Japanese New Year.

Recipes

For A Sweet Snack - Thu 7th Oct 2010
Lightly oil an oven proof dish and bake the mochi till puffed up and crisp (it puffs up a lot more in the oven than in a pan).
Straight out of the oven, spread with a bit of almond butter and a tiny bit of barley malt syrup.
Eat warm, it is delicious and satisfying.

This is really great stuff. Healthy and yummy all in one! If you want a warm snack this is the one. Tastes great and MUCH better for you than a traditional dessert.

Tips

Mochi is a rice snack made from whole grain brown rice. Since it's gluten, dairy and wheat free, it's perfect for kids with certain allergies. My daughter and I just baked some up yesterday and had so much fun doing it. I cut the big square of mochi into 1 inch pieces and she placed them all on a baking sheet. We turned on the oven light and watched the little morsels puff up into tasty little bites. After they cooled, we dipped them in almond butter and had a delicious dessert. Whether you bake them for dinner, saute them for lunch or even pop them into a waffle iron for breakfast, they make a yummy treat!
