Sato Cut Mochi Japanese Rice Cake 400g

Enjoy one of Japan’s most famous and chewiest delicacies with these delicious mochi rice cakes. Authentically made from 100% Japanese glutinous rice, the Sato Cut Mochi Rice Cakes are individually wrapped to preserve the mochi’s freshness and keep them dry. Each of the 8 square-shaped blocks of rice cakes has little cuts on the surface to make the mochi nice and plump when you roast them. You can enjoy eating these mochi cakes in a variety of ways, with kinako (roasted soy bean powder), wrapped with bacon or nori seaweed, adding it into a soup, or with sweet azuki red bean paste. Mochi is an ancient Japanese dessert made of glutinous rice flour called mochigome. Mochi is traditionally eaten in Japan around the New Year in special mochi making ceremonies. Many kinds of traditional Japanese sweets are made from mochi such as daifuku, a round mochi with sweet fillings such as red bean paste, white bean paste, or strawberries. Instructions You can cook the mochi in a pan, microwave, or Japanese style toaster depending on the texture you desire. For sticky and soft mochi, cook using the microwave. For crunchy mochi, cook in a pan or toaster. Mochi is not recommended for people who have less ability to swallow like small children and elderly people since it has a sticky and chewy texture.
