Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 25 servings

  • 1 ½ cups mochiko (glutinous rice flour)

  • 1 ½ cups water

  • 1 ¼ cups white sugar, divided

  • 2 drops distilled white vinegar

  • ½ cup potato starch

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Mix together mochiko, water, and 1 cup sugar in a medium bowl until well blended. Mix in vinegar to soften. Pour into a microwave-safe dish and loosely cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let cool until cool enough to handle.

  2. Combine potato starch, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Turn mochi out onto the plastic wrap and cut into 25 pieces using a plastic or wooden knife (metal knives tend to stick too much). Roll pieces in the potato starch mixture.
