Description

Learn how to make delicious Strawberry Mochi at home with this easy recipe. These delightful sweet treats feature fresh strawberries wrapped in a chewy, sweet rice flour dough.


Ingredients

Scale

Mochi Dough:

  • ¾ cup mochiko (sweet rice flour)
  • ¾ cup water
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

Additional:

  • ½ cup cornstarch (for dusting)
  • 6 fresh strawberries (hulled)
  • 6 small scoops sweet red bean paste (anko), or substitute with Nutella or white chocolate for filling


Instructions

  1. Prep the Strawberries: Wash and hull the strawberries, then gently pat them dry.
  2. Wrap with Filling: Wrap each strawberry in a small amount of red bean paste to form a ball around the fruit and set aside.
  3. Prepare Mochi Dough: In a microwave-safe bowl, mix mochiko, water, and sugar until smooth. Microwave in intervals, stirring in between until the dough becomes translucent and sticky.
  4. Shape and Fill: Dust a surface with cornstarch, divide the mochi dough, flatten each portion, place a red bean-wrapped strawberry in the center, seal the edges, and form a ball.
  5. Final Touch: Dust lightly with cornstarch to prevent sticking.

Notes

  • You can use different fillings like Nutella or white chocolate for a varied taste.
  • For best texture, store mochi in the refrigerator and consume within 1–2 days.
