Microwave Mochi

Microwave Mochi

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups mochiko (glutinous rice flour)
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1.5 cups water
  • 2 drops distilled white vinegar
  • .5 cup potato starch
  • .25 cup white sugar
  • .25 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the mochiko, 1 cup of sugar, and water until well blended. Mix in the 2 drops of vinegar to soften. Pour into a microwave-safe dish, and loosely cover with plastic.
  2. Microwave for 2-3 minutes, mixing every 30 seconds. Remove, and let cool until cool enough to handle.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the potato starch, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. Turn the mochi out onto the plastic, and cut into pieces using a plastic or wooden knife. Metal knives tend to stick too much. Roll the pieces in the potato starch mixture.
