Dessert 2 Hr. 35 Mins.

Ingredients

8

8 servings

  • 1 cup sweetened red bean paste
  • 1 cup glutinous rice flour
  • 1 teaspoon green tea powder (matcha)
  • 1 cup water
  • 0.25 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 cup cornstarch, for rolling out the dough

Instructions

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Wrap red bean paste in aluminum foil and place in the freezer until solid, at least 1 hour.
  • Mix glutinous rice flour and green tea powder thoroughly in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Stir in water, then sugar; mix until smooth.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave for 3 minutes 30 seconds.
  • Meanwhile, remove red bean paste from the freezer and divide into 8 equal balls. Set aside.
  • Remove rice flour mixture from the microwave. Stir and heat, covered, for another 15 to 30 seconds.
  • Dust a work surface with cornstarch. Roll about 2 tablespoons of hot rice flour mixture into a ball. Flatten the ball and place one ball of frozen red bean paste in the center. Pinch and press the dough around the bean paste until completely covered.
  • Sprinkle with additional cornstarch and place mochi, seam-side down, in a paper muffin liner to prevent sticking.
  • Repeat Step 6 to make remaining mochi.
  • Enjoy!
