Mochi Recipe

Ingredients

What to prepare. I use the recipe from Co-op Pal System as a reference.

Daikon 150g (5.29oz)
2-3 small green onions
3 tablespoons katakuriko (potato starch)
Salt to taste
2 teaspoons sesame oil
Shirasu, small shrimps, bacon, or other favorite ingredients to taste

We will use shirasu and sesame as ingredients.

Wash and grate daikon radish with its peel, and squeeze out the water lightly. Squeeze out the water lightly and reserve the squeezed juice.




In a bowl, mix grated daikon, small green onions, potato starch and salt. If the daikon is hard, add the squeezed juice of the daikon a little at a time and adjust the texture to about the size of an earlobe. If it is too loose, add a little more potato starch.


Add the shirasu and sesame seeds and mix well.


Heat sesame oil in a frying pan and drop the dough into the pan using a spoon. Roll the dough into a flat circle, turn it over and cook both sides! Serve with soy sauce, ponzu (Japanese sauce), mustard, or whatever seasoning you like.

How does it taste?

When you bite into it, it is plump and che wy! The more you bite into it, the more the refreshing flavor of daikon radish and the aroma of sesame oil fills your mouth. Delicious!


The crunchy bittersweet flavor of green onions, sprouts, and sesame seeds adds a nice accent to the dish. We recommend tasting it refreshingly with ponzu (Japanese sauce made from ponzu citrus juice)!
