Product Description
Mochi Rice is a hulled, short-grain, glutinous white rice. Its flavor is mild and slightly sweet. This rice has a very high starch content, which makes Mochi extremely sticky. A traditional rice of Japan, Mochi is most frequently used to make rice cakes. To make the cakes, cooked rice is pounded until it becomes sticky enough to hold together. It's then shaped into balls or cakes, then wrapped with seaweed or filled with little pieces of meat or seafood. Mochiko flour is made from this rice and is used to make Crackers and rice noodles.
