MOCHI (Microwave)

Prep:5 minsCook:10 minsTotal:15 minsServings:25Yield:25 servings

• 1 ½ cups mochiko (glutinous rice flour)
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 ½ cups water
• 2 drops distilled white vinegar
• ½ cup potato starch
• ¼ cup white sugar
• ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1 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.

Step 2 In a small bowl, combine the potato starch, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. Turn the mochi out onto 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.
