I would like to introduce a product called "Mochipuchi" released by Showa Sangyo because it is interesting. This is a simple dessert mix powder that can be made with just water!


It's a white powder, but its identity is a mixture of sugar, glucose, powdered starch syrup, and modified starch (derived from wheat). When mixed with water, it becomes fluffy and chewy, and quickly turns into a mysterious snack like jelly-like warabi mochi. It's delicious even if you wrap it with fruits!

● How to make

Put 150 ml of water in a heat-resistant bowl and heat in a 500 W microwave oven for 2 minutes (1 and a half minutes for 600 W). Put the mochi powder in warm water and mix well with a spoon until there are no lumps.


Heat again in the microwave for 2 minutes (1 and a half minutes for 600W), take out the bowl, stir 10 times so that the top and bottom are even, and then heat in the microwave for 2 minutes (1 and a half minutes for 600W).


After heating, take it out and use two teaspoons to roll it into ice water to make a dumpling. If you want to make fruit mochi, put the dough on the wrap, wrap the strawberries, etc. and put the wrap in ice water.





Cool for about 10 minutes, drain and serve in a bowl and you're done!


If the dough taken out of the microwave is still loose, add heat while watching the situation and it will harden. Also, if you put it in ice water and take a long cooling time, it will have a firmer texture.

● I tried it!

It has a thick and chewy texture, and is fresh and slightly sweet. It tastes like warabi mochi. It ’s delicious!



Needless to say, it goes well with red bean paste and kinako. With fruits, the sweetness of juicy strawberries and cherries is gently wrapped in the surrounding pull-pull dough, making it look like a fashionable jelly!


Besides, you can enjoy various arrangements such as making colorful rice cakes with water and juice, or putting rice cakes made with coffee instead of water into milk tea to make it like tapioca milk tea. This time, the editorial department purchased it at a supermarket in Kanto for 192 yen (tax included).
