Ingredients

• Servings: 25
• 1 1/2 cups mochiko (glutinous rice flour)
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 2 drops distilled white vinegar
• 1/2 cup potato starch
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Recipe

Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 10 mins Ready Time: 15 mins


• 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. microwave for 8 to 10 minutes on high. remove, and let cool until cool enough to handle.
• in a small bowl, combine the potato starch, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. turn the mochi out 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.
