料理紹介

Do you know what is Daifuku? Sounds like a karate kick or an ancient scary deep sea monster, right? Well, it’s actually a versatile sweet Japanese dessert based on glutinous rice flour, can be made very fragrant or not (I added Matcha green tea powder) and topped (here with a red bean paste). It’s very delicious when consumed with tea too!

材料

water　100
sugar　100
matcha　5 gr

作り方

1.
To properly prepare a mochi, you need to act quickly. So, the dough that you will heat with steam will be at first very soft and then Harden very quickly and there you will no longer be able to handle the cake. So, at first spread cornstarch on a plate or plate, put in a bowl your well-kneaded red bean paste.
2.
Mix your flour + sugar + tea powder + water and place either in a steamer, or make a water bath and in the pan from above, cover with baking paper to have a gentle baking of the dough, you need to constantly monitor and mix with a spoon. You will know when it is ready when it adheres slightly (very fast: about 2 min).
3.
Then when out of the fire, coat your hands with cornstarch so that nothing sticks, then form small balls (8 balls are formable with this amount of preparation approximately). Flatten into a disc in the palm of your hand and place a little sweet red bean paste. Close well and roll in cornstarch again or in icing sugar.

ワンポイントアドバイス

Don’t be discouraged, it is normal at first not to fail at making them properly and you may need some helping hand, as all Asian cuisines requires certain dexterity and mastery. You probably will have to start again and again a few times or adjust a few of the ingredients. If you do not know this tasty dessert, buy it ready made in the grocery store to experience this delicacy and when you are in love with it, it will be very easy to get back to it making it at home :-)!
