Kinako Mochi (Japanese Soybean Flour Mochi)
Try Kinako Mochi, a traditional Japanese treat made with chewy mochi and nutty kinako powder. Easy to make with just a few ingredients!
Ingredients
Instructions
- Cut kiri mochi into half.
- Place mochi in a bowl, pour enough water over the top, and microwave for 2 minutes or until soft.
- Blend kinako powder and sugar to make a kinako mixture.
- Dust the softened mochi with the kinako mixture.
Notes
- Adding a little salt to the kinako mixture can make the sweetness even more delicious.
- If your mochi is overheated, it will lose shape and become mushy. If it's not soft after 2 minutes, heat it in 20-second increments and see if it's done.
- Mochi should be enjoyed with caution as a potential choking hazard, especially for the elderly and small children. Cut the mochi into small pieces and chew very well when eating.
- Serve immediately. If mochi is left out for too long, it can become dry and lose its soft texture.
